    As a bike rider today, I think much less about assumption that the car is the primary mode of transportation. It is liberating.

    How about quality time alone. Work is stressful, and it is nice to have the quiet time while exercising out of doors.

    Sure, biking and taking LRT to work keeps me off the city highways for weeks at a stretch...to the point I forget what it is like to sit in rush hour traffic. I absolutely do not miss that.

    New to composting? Be sure to check out the action resource links to learn tips and more about it. As you transition from throwing food away to composting, what do you notice about how much you are tossing? How will you use your compost once it is ready?

    Took out the eggshells and banana peels this morning at 5:45 am. I think I lost a glove in the compost bin...now that it is getting colder, I need that thing.
