I read this a day late, but I’m on it. I was thinking of doing a post like this soon anyway. It’s nice to sneak in some preaching on my non-enviromental blog every now and then. Keeps those sinners in line.

I love shopping, but I usually don’t buy that much because I hate spending money. Also, when I buy veggies, my new thing is to bring back the plastic bags for them so I don’t have to use a new one off the roll. Preferable to having bagless wet spinach rustling up against my cereal boxes.

I don’t think it’s something you can beat yourself up about, because I think that starts something of a shame spiral that’s counterproductive. I actually used to like shopping. Now I feel like I’m allergic to it. It’s an evolution, I think. Not something that happens overnight.

Not buying stuff I don’t need is my biggest battle. I know I don’t need it. I know that the happiness I feel from buying won’t last long, and yet I still do it.

Fortunately there are more people out there reminding me every day that overconsumption is bad, so that helps a lot!

No — I don’t mind at all. Spread the information!

Wow, I’ve been tagged! This will be only my 2nd meme. Thanks Allie!

Also, I really appreciate that priority list of fruits and veggies you posted here. I’ve not seen that before and am super happy I know now. Hope you don’t mind if a post on my blog evolves from that list.

Cheers!
