Sweet idea

This morning, I came into work to find yummy cookies from Mary Haas, who wrapped them in newspaper bags, per my idea last week. It looks much nicer in person than my camera phone captures.

Of course, Mary is a loyal reader, married to Editorial Page Editor Wally Haas. Thanks. And way to go!

Now I can go on to recycle these bags, too. (And did you notice a nice change of pace with red bags this Sunday?)

… Hers is not the only reaction I’ve gotten. Thanks for the added ideas for dirty diapers, knitting supplies and the pantry.

    I use the newspaper bags when traveling - workd great for shoes. I also use them when storing Christmas ornaments or special keepsakes.
