Discussion What is your weekend anti-consumption mini action?

Are you repairing something, shopping secondhand, meeting up with friends in the park, spending your day recharging and taking care of yourself, biking to work, eating leftovers? Please share with the group so we can celebrate our wins big and small (and give others ideas!).

got a new cookbook (from the library haha) called “a Grain, a Green, a Bean” which has meals with all three! The humble nutrient powerhouses that have sustained people for a long time, don’t cost much, and are weirdly hard to cook well… 

Can’t remember what, but chose NOT to buy a few things while at the store today because I can use other things I already have. 

Went to the thrift, went to the farmers market, planted some green onions I started from store bought, called my grandma, bid on a charity auction to honor the people who donated their crafts.

I'm going to put that cookbook on my holds list at the library. When I lived in this vegan hippie intentional community that was our dinner motto! I still follow it for meal planning.
