Here we are, the beginning of month 1!!!
The rules:
1. Buy local food
2. Recycle EVERYTHING
3. Shop thrift/second hand
4. Tami is learning how to compost. Not so much an option in my apartment building, but I will be focusing on not throwing away any leftovers!
5. Conserve energy/water
6. Tami's family will be driving only one car. I will be combining all of my errands to one trip per week.
7. Repurpose instead of buying new

Today seems to so far be fairly successful! Spent the day enjoying the lake, and now having a dinner of locally caught deer :) and corn we bought from a farm down the road. I'm debating whether the bacon is alright?! Turns out it's from Missouri.... Boo. I may be sneaking it in anyway until I get a chance to buy some more groceries. Feel free to share your thoughts. :)
