If you are a quilter or know a quilter who has scraps of 80/20 or cotton batting they can be used in many ways. Dust rags , swiffer cloths ( Save the disposibles) wet or dry. packing in shipped packages, they can be used and thrown away if the job is real dirty or they wash well for a repeat use. A small square placed by the sewing or quilting machine will trap all the loose threads. They are even good for small quilting projects or alone for a coaster.

GREAT ideas Martha!!! I need to try this, but the obsessive minimalist part of me can not tolerate having containers sitting around in my cupboards. haha. I know. I need to get over that. I am the kind that keeps wanting to get RID of disposable things like this. it is a WONDERFUL way to do it though, nothing is worse than taking a meal or treat to someone and then hassling them with trying to get it returned to you. I have made many meals for people in our church and then each time, I have to hunt my Tupperware down again……

very good and that is what I do too. I am a HUGE Franklin Covey fan, so still the old fashioned paper planner way.
and thank you, I am glad someone missed me. Hopefully I am back, and in a much more consistent manner. LOL

I bake coffee cakes, quick breads and the like for our Sunday School class. If I don’t have time for the homemade version and I have to go out and buy these breakfast items, I save the plastic containers that they come in. I wash them, dry them and put them on a shelf for when I want to take some cookies or the like to a neighbor or friend as a gift. They never have to worry about giving me back my container and I in turn tell them to fill it with some goodies and pass it on to someone else.

Be prepared for your husband to stare at you and shake your head when he sees you washing out these items.

I simply write everything in my 2 year pocket calendar in my purse and tell them I do not NEED a card.

Missed you, so glad to have you back
