Ok, so I’ve never been very big on cleaning. We had a maid growing up; the only thing I ever had to do was dishes and laundry. As an adult I have two male roommates.
So, post-Thanksgiving, it comes as no surprise that my apartment is in deep need of cleansing.
Why does this fall under the “live greener” category?
Well, when I was at the hardware store the other day, I grabbed a can of BonAmi, a powdered cleanser that I remembered always seeing under the sink at my folks’ home. I knew it would clean the sinks and bathrooms. Halfway through scouring the kitchen, I stopped dead in my tracks, wondering if this was actually an environmentally friendly cleaner. I looked at the can, got on the website, and was surprised that it was quite earth-friendly.
Living greener is something I really want to do, but it’s moving in little steps. I did finally get a couple of re-usable shopping bags, which I usually remember to take to the store. Not always, but more often than not.
Now I’m using a (very inexpensive!) earth-friendly cleaner.
Next step: driving less…walking/bicycling more.
