Hello, fellow EPPN-ers. In the spirit of this Lenten series, I am taking on a discipline during lent – only using cloth shopping bags. I’ll tell the truth – I have cloth bags; I’ve had cloth bags for some time. But we all know – it is easy to forget them in the car or the kitchen or whatever fabulous storage spot I find for them. So, during Lent, I am making the commitment to just use my cloth bags – no plastic shopping bags for me. If I leave my sacks in the trunk, I’ll have to abandon my cart and run back out to the car (I hope it’s not raining!). I’ll take pictures and share with you my adventures and some of the reactions that I get from cashiers and other folks in line. Stay Tuned!
