These are the thoughts and observations of me — a woman of a certain age. (Oh, my, God, I'm 65!) I'm single. I'm successful enough (independent, self supporting). I live just outside Chicago, the best city in the world. I'm an aunt and a friend. I feel that voices like mine are rather underrepresented online or in print. So here I am. If my musings resonate with you, please visit my blog again sometime.

Duh! Why did this never occur to me?
From the October issue of Allure: "Recycle body wash bottles, or use bar soap. 'If every household did so, we'd keep up to 2.5 million pounds of plastic out of landfills,' says Elizabeth Rogers, coauthor of The Green Book." It's so obvious! And after I empty and recycle the bottle of body wash currently in my shower, it's back to old-fashioned bar soap for this old Gal.
But the packaging on individual bar soap is... annoying.

Packaging, packaging, packaging...
I always use bar soap in the shower, and liquid soaf, from refillable bottles, for handwashing at the sink.
ReplyDeleteIf I may take a moment to brag, I'm the owner of Nice Touch Handmade Goat Milk Soap. My soaps are packaged with a simple "cigar band, for the ultimate in minable packaging.
