Luckily, my breakfast routine is already plastic free. Oatmeal, cooked in a metal pan with a wooden handle (yard sale find from last summer). For my coffee, I use a cloth filter brought to me from Honduras by my friend Liz, but ceramic cones work in the same way.Sometimes I have a 2nd cup of coffee at the office, and went to make it today, but the coffee comes in K-cups which are plastic. No go! Maybe I'll have tea. It's probably for the best, Hot water shooting through plastic with my coffee? Sounds a little sketchy. I drink too much caffeine anyway.
Dishes:
The sponges are out. I'm going to use dishcloths (thank you church fair ladies) and eventually I'll have to knit my own.http://dishandwashclothmania.com/grandmas-favorite-dishcloth-knit/
I also found this hemp scrubby at the Co-op up in Blue Hill. That should help with the super stuck on food chunks.

I think the day so far is a good sign of what this will be all about, a mix of old techniques and yard sale finds, new alternatives, and just giving some things up.
**P.S.** Special thanks to my friend Pious for setting up my blog!!
Booo to no second cup of coffee at work. Try to score another cloth filter to bring your own coffee supply at work! (or make one maybe?) My individual one cup coffee maker filter holder thing is plastic... :(
