RE: Minimalism and and happiness

in #money7 years ago

Hey @britleigh, My wife and I are trying to do the same thing. We have 4 plates, 4 bowls, 4 forks, 4 spoons, 4 glasses. That way there is not a pile of dishes sitting there. It is much easier to wash the food off right when you are done instead of letting it get all hard and become cement on a plate and then you are wasting even more water trying to get it off. Another thing we do is have a 5 gallon bucket in the shower and when we go to take a shower and warm up the water we fill the bucket in the process and then give our animals and plants outside the water. It saves some money or at least some water. We also do not go out to eat. For one time going out to eat to a resturant, you could almost eat for a week if you shop for food correctly. No fake chips or junk food. We try to get vegi's and meat. Bread is kinda junky too but we do get some here and there for soups and what not.

Thanks britleigh

Wow, the water in the shower is so cool. I want to try that. I agree with eating out. I am a waitress and I find myself eating at work a lot. I need to meal prep and take it with me to work so that I don't eat garbage all the time. Thank you for the great reply.
