I haven’t been much of an activist lately, but on Monday while my friends and I were going from store to store shopping our li’l hearts out, I declined bags from every retailer. Instead, I brought a corduroy carryall from home, and since I bought a tote that would accommodate the 12×12 scrapbook pages anyway, I just used it to keep all my purchases together in the car.

It’s a little thing, and I ought to be doing much much more, but it’s something, and little somethings ought not be overlooked because together they can often amount to a great deal.
