New SnackTAXIs are a great alternative to plastic bags and wraps, the perfect addition to your no waste lunch! Made in the US (this mom-owned business is based in Massachusetts and relies on a core group of talented local seamstresses!) snackTAXIs are lined with coated nylon, and can be machine washed and dried, or simply wiped clean with a damp sponge. The snack-sack neatly fits rice cakes, pretzels or corn chips, and is equally good for carrot or celery sticks! Dimensions: 6" W x 4.5" H

The use of subways, buses, trains, and rail car are more efficient ways to get around, especially in large metropolitian areas. They also cut down on traffic congestion, which reduces the amount of delays and idling for other vehicles on the road.

"I found good uses for the junk strewn around our rural property. TV sets make good plant stands for my vegetable garden containers. I used old washtubs and enamel cookware for planting herbs, beets and cabbages. A worn out fiberglass canoe made a fine onion, garlic and spinach bed. A wood bookcase on its side planted in rows of carrots and swiss chard made a raised bed and keeps the rabbits out. Even old tires work well with marigolds and trailing nasturtiums. It really cleaned up my yard and it's useful and decorative. P.S. Broken microwave ovens keep your garden tools dry and handy right where you need them."
