]]> In honor of Earth Day, we are carpooling to work, walking to lunch and locking away all paper plates and plastic cutlery to encourage our coworkers to bring their own plates, cups and silverware from home. How will you be paying homage to Mother Earth today?

]]> I love to spend Saturday mornings at the local farmer’s market, picking up fresh fruits and veggies for the week, so I tend to turn Sunday into a cooking fest. But, once I’ve portioned out soups and sauces for the week, I generally find that all of my favorite tupperware is already tied up in the fridge.

I hate packing lunches using those little wimpy (and wasteful!) plastic sandwich baggies, so I was excited when I found these adorable cloth lunch kits from ReusableBags.com.

I love how they use bright colors and charming prints to make lunchtime more fun for the kids. Plus, the cloth sandwich wraps are really easy to use, and tend to be more sturdy than your typical sandwich bag. I also personally want one of the bento boxes—imagine how easy it would be to portion out your fruits, veggies, protein and dessert! Heaven!
