My family spends so much less money on plastic wrap, plastic bags and such for saving left overs... I can't remember the last time we bought them!

Jennifer Sohl 7/15/2019 6:02 AMWay to go Denny's.... went to eat there and the waitress told us she couldn't give us straws unless we asked for them (which we didn't) and all their take out containers are compostable. -
