    Went out to celebrate July 4th and the restaurant that we were at committed to using no plastic. Food was serve on wood blocks lined with butcher paper, cups and spoons for sauces are metal, and straws are paper.

    Have not been grocery shopping so I have not met the buying unpackaged produce, but I am doing my daily thing of using reusable items for my eating and drinking

    Brought reusable bowl and plate to work so if the office wants to snack, there will be no need for one-time use plasticware. Coffee that I make everyday is also from a glass jar, no single serve K cups over here

    I went grocery shopping last night and used reusable bags instead of plastic.
    Still continue to do good by bringing to work my insulated cups for my coffee and water today, so no disposable plastic cups here.
    Went out to lunch to a restaurant where they use reusable baskets lined with parchment/butcher paper. To-go leftover portion is also wrapped in parchment paper => no styrofoam or plastic container
