So much wisdom for a young lady! As for food waste, I have little to none. I pack left overs for work lunches or take to share with coworkers. Any veges or meats are frozen for a soup or a later meal. I use vaccum bags and separate meats into servings for 2 people or 1 lb bags. I do not have compose, but living in the country I take outside for Mother Nature's pets to consume or to feed the earth. I would rather give back to Mother Earth, that dispose to the garbage, less guilt. I recently found your website and blog. So much wisdom for a young lady!

I think the term originated in some sort of video game. Um, woot is another way of saying “woohoo” or “yay!”(or since you’re British, how about “hooray!”? lol).

What is Woot, Kristen? Food waste, can't remember the last time I "wasted" any food! When you are into gardening and also keep chickens as we do, nothing gets wasted! If it can't be eaten by the chickens then it goes on to the compost (But not any kind of meat or dairy products) Actually I could use any amount of waste, sometimes I wish I had a McDonalds restaurant. There are the chickens, the compost, the wild birds and The Lake - we live on a Lake and I like to feed the ducks, geese and the fish. So, no I have no waste to report. Can we include paper towels? We use less of those because I tear them in half, half usually provides enough paper towel to do whatever I want to do. But we use a rag to do a lot of what we used to do with paper towels - just like you do Kristen, thank you for that posting, we are going to go and get a bunch of those facecloths at Costco to use. When we have guests over to dinner we usually use paper napkins, often they get used very little, if at all and I put the 'clean' ones aside to use for floor clean up - spills, cat throw up (we have an old cat), mud etc. David WOOT?
