Earth Day Giveaway

Every Earth Day, I find myself making new Earth Day Resolutions...ways in which I can personally help take better care of our earth. Just like New Year's Resolutions, some years are better than others. One particular resolution that I have been failing at, but really want to succeed at, is ridding my life of those awful plastic bags...you know, the white ones that most stores give you when you make a purchase. I loath those! They are tacky, noisy, and just plain wasteful! Here in Germany, you rarely see those plastic bags. They just don't use them like we do in America. I'm sure it is because they are so wasteful. People just bring their own reusable bag and use it for most every purchase.

Awhile back, I purchased some really cute reusable bags to start using instead of always relying on the stores to give me a plastic bag. However, I have yet to use them. So.....today is the day that I am going to start using these bags. I pulled them out, cut off the tags and put them in my purse and car. I am determined to stop using the plastic bags once and for all!

Being that today is Earth Day, I am going to give one of these super cute reusable bags to one lucky reader. So, you also can start ridding your life of plastic bags, if you haven't already done so. You have two chances in which you can win. First, leave me a nice comment between now and April 24th. Second, become a public follower of my blog (It's okay to be a follower...it makes bloggers happy). The winner will be picked at random and will be announced on Monday, April 25th. :)
