I learned that helping people is so easy. There are a lot of things that present themselves everyday. I was not as successful in a reusable mug. I'd set it out in a variety of places, but usually left without it. I found some pretty fantastic reusable bags, so they stay in my car and are becoming more of a habit to grab and take with me. Over all this was a great eye opening experience. It's funny how much we miss just in normal day to day things. I plan to continue my journey of making an impact where I can!!

Today was hard. Using reusable bags is easier then I thought. I just leave them in my car, and take them wherever I go. I have a reusable water bottle which I use, but I always forget my mug at home. If I do remember it, I will forget it in the car. I'm on a serious mission to figure this out.

REFLECTION QUESTION
Food Whole Foods Diet

Michael Pollan states that "it is better to pay the grocer (our edit: or the farmer!) than the doctor." What are your thoughts on this?

Bonnie Gradner 10/05/2018 6:16 AM

I would absolutely prefer to pay the farmer/grocer. The medical industry makes WAY to much money on unnecessary visit, test, prescriptions, and ideas. Sending people from one doctor to another raking in even more money. I started a clean eating life style a couple of months ago. I have do have cheat days, but almost every meal is clean. It's the snacks that get me usually.
I have subscribed to Imperfect Produce to help the growers more, and waste less. We as a family shop at farmers markets, or u-pick places as often as possible. I am researching other ways to make an impact as well.

I am so excited to be doing this challenge. I think we waste way to many resources. It's exciting to see how many good things we can do. I can't wait to learn new ideas, and share my own on making the world a better place to be!!
