reduce, re-use, recycle



i have such a hot little tip it amazes me that it took so long to hit me!!!

it involves frozen juice containers...



here's how it works:

reduce: we are REDUCING the amount of plastic used for our juice by buying concentrated frozen juice. what's the difference in frozen as compared to ready to drink? besides the size of the plastic containers, the ready to drink juice has the water already added!!! how hard is that for me to add my own tap water? BONUS...i water down my kids juice by cutting it with water anyway so now i just save myslef some time in the long run and add extra water while making it

re-use: if your making juice chances are you have kids, how many times do your kids ask for a bowl or bucket or cup to play in the sandbox, pool or even when rinsing off in the bath...RE-USE those cute little juice cups for just these purposes

recycle: when your child is finally done using the cup...after about 6yrs!!!! just pop them into your weekly RECYCLE bin!!!

see...quick no brainer tip. and besure to look for 100% and organic juices...they can be found ;)
