I a on vacation and doing very well with bringing my own plate, knife, fork, spoon, cup wherever I go. My big challenge is the condiments in those small containers. Cream for the coffee, butter for the bagel, etc. I am considering giving those up. The other is the social challenge when a friend brings you take out food and you want to say no thank you but you can. So I am keeping the containers to reuse or recycle.

I already am mostly plastic free. I was at a convention and felt bad about using creamer for my coffee in those small plastic containers. By 7/2 I asked servers if they had creamer in a larger container. They did and so I was saved from that worry through today 7/5. I will be hard for me to drink black coffee when I don’t have this option.
