Yes, this is going to be a TMI entry. So, be forewarned ... if you are squeamish or just do not want to know personal things about me, ignore this entry!
I have been contemplating ways to reduce all those single use products in my life, and toilet paper was one item that I simply was blocked on precisely HOW to eliminate it. At first, cloth wipes just did not enter my mind (duh!) then when I suggested using cloth wipes instead of TP I was met with intense opposition from FM. And then only because I am oh so good at creating my own obstacles before I even attempt something new - I envisioned Gherkie and Ziggy using them too and flushing them down the crapper. Not a pleasant scenario. So I have never embarked on this journey.
Until now. Inspired by my friend Crunchy Chicken (I am totally OK pretending we are best friends!) and her now annual cloth wipe challenge, I'm jumping on board with this idea I've been mulling around for quite a few years.
I am going to use the moist-wipe method, created from repurposed flannel sheets and stored in an old wipe container from babyhood days, and disposed into an old lidded coffee canister. I have quite a few empty canisters lying around waiting for SOME purpose, and now I have found the perfect purpose for my stash!
I'll keep everyone posted on the results and pitfalls, etc. I know you are just waiting with baited breath on this one!! TMI
Homemade Greek Yogurt

I eat a lot of plain whole milk Greek yogurt, which is not only expensive
but uses a lot of plastic. So, I got myself this little Bear yogurt maker
that do...

I mentioned this challenge to Kirk and was met with quite a bit of opposition. He is so not ready to go there yet so I guess I will still pay the extra to get the recycled stuff. Ok, here is the deal. He is incredibly picky about TP. It is one of his quirks! I will keep working on him and hopefully next challenge time we will be up for it!
