i can’t start my morning quite the same

when i woke up this morning on my first day without buying plastic, i realized that i didn’t buy my lactose-free milk at the store this weekend, so i’ll probably have to eat peanut butter toast on double-fiber wheat instead of corn chex for breakfast in a few days. the milk comes in a paper carton, but the spigot is plastic. i figure i can suffer, though i’ll be less likely to make my kids suffer (they drink regular milk).

i also noticed that the box that holds my morning tea comes wrapped in plastic. i have enough for the week but will have to see if there are other kinds in aluminum canisters or plain boxes.
