We had one come back to our camp two nights in a row, they were so much fun to chew! Now I just need to find a way to buy kangaroo meat without the plastic wrapping...Alison Bennett Taylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03856998435125114810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-815417394312980369.post-64969543490238278642014-06-25T16:51:11.809+08:002014-06-25T16:51:11.809+08:00Fiona, can you believe it is July again?
I know wh...Fiona, can you believe it is July again?<br />I know what you mean about the soft plastic. You just can't get away from it but great to know that it is being recycled now.<br />I haven't bought cling film now for about 3 years and I really don't miss it. I got sick of buying something that was ending up in the bin after one use. We've also stopped using foil and paper towel and have really learnt to live without it.Bruise Mousehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01594691638279041410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-815417394312980369.post-66950090034880621612014-06-22T20:13:17.972+08:002014-06-22T20:13:17.972+08:00I am going to be doing plastic Free July again and...I am going to be doing plastic Free July again and now that I have found out we can recycle soft plastics there are far fewer things that end up in the bin. Cling wrap is something I would love to stop buying but we still have it in the house. Thankfully we do not have to pack school lunches so we can make do with containers and shower caps on bowls but sometimes large platters of food need covering and I am yet to find an alternative.<br />I have never seen keep cups before but it is something I would use if I had one.Fiona from Arbordale Farmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05196630415124998431noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-815417394312980369.post-20575698601607418922014-06-22T07:49:06.639+08:002014-06-22T07:49:06.639+08:00Our Keepcups get a lot of use too.

I think i have had one of the boxes for about 8 years. I was given it as a gift filled with homemade chocolates. Yum. <br />Great idea about the bunting. <br />Thanks for saying hello.

The waxing would be great for outdoor bunting too, all new to me as well Kirsty @ Bowerbird Bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12511849105347338654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-815417394312980369.post-30617772117222895552014-06-21T23:11:33.995+08:002014-06-21T23:11:33.995+08:00Love a keepcup they're in high rotation here! ...Love a keepcup they're in high rotation here! So much so that they are looking a bit beyond loved. I think we could make some snack bags from Your waxed cloth and reduce our plastic use for muffins and snacks. We've had reusable sandwich wraps for three years now, could never go back. Can't wait to try the cloth, I didn't know about that trick either. Would be good for outdoor bunting too.Kirsty @ Bowerbird Bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12511849105347338654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-815417394312980369.post-70588226410743724472014-06-17T17:26:14.423+08:002014-06-17T17:26:14.423+08:00Chewed by a dingo!

But this got me thinking... And I think I will be giving up any packaging on our meat this July. I have always thought about taking my own containers to the butchers but never gotten around to making a habit of it. So this July, I shall be! Thanks for the little push. xAlison Bennett Taylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03856998435125114810noreply@blogger.com
