I think I need to read this. I've all but eliminated paper stuff in my house (other than for parties...I have no desire to do dishes all night long! :)). I would LOVE to convince Joe to use cloth wipes instead of toilet paper, but I doubt he'd join me. I do love my cloth pads though...LOVE them...no more crampies for me! (Turns out the chemicals in disposie pads like Always were causing my cramps!) I have had the same pack of paper towels since January!! I remember the cold weather the day I bought them. I'd rather just grab a kitchen towel! Now, I need to cut down on other junk...I need (as I've said) to check out this book! :)
