RECYCLE THAT!!!

I love to recycle! Anything that I can reuse I try and do, after all, our landfills are full of things that take years to break down,anything we can do, even small, can help a great deal. I love to recycle things from my kitchen especially, things I purchase at the grocery store that's a perfectly good storage container often work great for other things. We drink Maxwell House coffee and I buy the large tubs with the handle....wow, what a great storage container, you can store Q-tips,cotton balls, fingernail polish or even drill bits, nails and much more in these handy containers with lids! I also save my Parmesan cheese containers! I store salt, powdered sugar and I mix my own spices in them....they are great for lots of stuff. How about those wine bottles? I was diagnosed with Celiac Disease 17 years ago and my doctor recommended I drink red wine everyday, so I did! I buy the gallon table wine in the pretty glass jugs and boy have I had fun with those! You can take the metal lid and put a slit in it and paint the glass.... POOF, you have a bank! I also have a sea shell collection that I store in these beautiful glass jugs, and you can also take lights and stuff them in the jugs, place them behind your shrubbery or on your deck....PRETTY, especially for Christmas or Halloween! I love recycling, it's a challenge for me and I would like to challenge you!! What can you recycle this week or month? You might find yourself thinking the next time you go to throw the next Gatorade bottle away or coffee jug, "what could I use that for?" Happy recycling, The Mrs...................
