Let them eat soup....

So tonight I hosted soup night at our house (it's something our parents group does) and I was trying to make sure that I didn't create as much waste as we usually do. Since we normally use paper everything, I asked on freecycle (an awesome group on Yahoo check it out) if anyone had coffee mugs that they didn't want and was able to use coffee mugs as bowls and borrowed enough plates and wine glasses that I didn't need any paper products! I felt so proud that I was able to reduce our impact without impacting anyone that was here! We had a lot of fun and we didn't create a lot of waste! It just keeps reminding me to think outside the box. The stuff is out there you just need to know where to look!
