Kicking off the New Year

On New Year's Day, we decided to test our plastic-free boundaries by eating out. Since this is a holiday, most restaurants near us were closed, so we turned to fast food. We were pleased to find out that you can ask for your sandwich not to be placed in a plastic bag. Also, the paper wrap is waxed paper and the meat slices are separated in their sandwich trays with paper. We happily indulged and took our sandwiches home to enjoy.

I also spent copious amounts of time playing video games today. Depending on what kind of video games you play, this could be a problem, since most of them come in plastic cases these days because they are on discs that need some babying to prevent scratching. However, the game I delved into today was a digital download, so not only is there no plastic packaging, there's no packaging at all, because there's no item at all. Hello, future!
