Pack Your Bags

GREAT GLASS OF SANGRIA! I'M GOIN TO BARCELONA!

Here comes my super relaxing weekend in the sun! I'll get on the plane at 6pm tonight and tomorrow morning I wake up in a place with sunshine and palm trees. YES!

So hey, I was on a recycling website and I wondered: Have you thought about giving up plastic bags? In Ireland, plastic bags have been banned for 3 or so years. In grocery stores you can buy a plastic bag but it will cost you 20c each, and if you're facing a carload of groceries, that can add up fast. The solution is to buy cloth reusable bags and bring them to the grocery store. You save yourself loads of hassle and guilt, and throwing a few cloth bags in the cart really isn't that much more effort. In the States, you can even give the cloth bags to the bagger and he/she'll fill those instead.
Check out ReusableBags.com for loads of perfect grocery sacks, and the next time you head to Krogers, Vaughns, Piggly Wiggly, Tesco etc., think about taking along your own bags!

Well, have a great weekend! Hope the weather is sunny and warm for you. I'll take tons of pictures of Spain and share them on Tuesday when I'm back!

  1. have fun bey! Barcelona is my favorite place in the world. Please visit all the Gaudi architecture and take pics for me. And don't forget to try Gofres con chocolate (Belgian waffles covered in REAL chocolate sauce), BEST PART OF THE CITY FOR SURE! But don't go to the wax museum. It's a wee bit creepy! Please take pics. I wub you.
