Going Paper-Free... One Step at a Time
I've decided that we should stop using paper napkins and instead use cloth napkins. So far, this has proven practically effortless. We eat dinner in every single night (we're poor AND trying to save to buy our first home one day soon) and so we've gone through an obscene amount of paper napkins. I'm using some nice kitchen washcloths that we were given; they're the perfect size for napkins. And really, we're not THAT messy. We can use one napkin each, for days. However, for some reason, when we were using paper napkins, our efforts to re-use them were always thwarted by Thora. She'd get her hands on a napkin that we were saving from the night before and within seconds, she'd tear it to ribbons. I'm also trying to be cognizant of using washcloths for cleaning as opposed to sheets of paper towel. And so far, we've had the same roll of paper towel up for weeks! I think this plan is working.
