Holiday non-garbage:
My friends and family have been very supportive of my challenge. But still, some of my gifts were wrapped in disposable packaging this year. This is a grey zone for me (see more about this in my Grey Zones entry). One gift that I received for Christmas is an Autoseal travel mug, which I had featured on my blog in February as an alternative to disposable coffee/tea cups. It turns out that the Autoseal came with a plastic wrapper. So in hindsight, it’s probably best to buy travel mugs from a local coffee/tea shop, where you can get them without packaging (see more about this in my Online Purchases entry).
