”A la Carte Green” is about making green choices on a daily basis, in a manner that works for you. It's about trying and choosing greener options "a la carte" because there is no one size fits all solution. Not everyone can walk to work or have solar panels, but we can choose to bring waste-free lunches, or to dry our clothes in the sunshine. You get the picture. Small “A la Carte Green” choices made by each person will have positive impacts. Which green options will you choose?

It's Official
It's Official! I'm an eco-geek :) We were out running some errands and we ended up eating dinner out at Panera; our lemonades came in plastic cups...sigh...At the end of the meal as we prepared to leave, I realized that the 6 plastic cups would end up in the trash. So....I poured the ice into the bowls, and took the plastic cups home and put them in our recycle bins. Funny thing is, the kids didn't bat an eyelash! I guess they've come to expect my zany eco-idiosyncrasies.

who would've guess
So continuing with the Rec Room project (flooded), and the lemons to lemonade, I decided to change the paint color. I did not end up with a no VOC paint because I already had the color from previous project, and wanted to use that up as well.
But I was thrilled to find out that there are now biodegradable plastic paint trays, and biodegradable plastic drop cloths! Who would've guessed! So of course we went with those options ;)
