Take It Easy On the Consumerism. Plus, ’tis the season for flus and colds, meaning more people are taking antibiotics. It’s cold out, so we idle our cars for longer periods of time to get them warmed up and then idle while we wait for somebody else to make us food so we don’t have to get out of the car.

Do you even remember when most people cooked their own meals instead of going out to eat? You can take an active role in changing our throw away society to one that produces less waste, and reduces consumerism. Remember when high school kids were required to take shop and/or home economics? Those classes taught usable skills.

Cook at home using fresh ingredients – home-cooked food is generally healthier, more nutritious, less fattening and uses less energy. Reuse and recycle – consumerism has taught us to throw away anything that is broken or that we no longer want or need. Involve the whole family in menu planning and meal preparation.

Tomorrow we will start the cooking. Consumerism Commentary asks us if we are better off than our parents ? We are co-hosting a bday party for a dear friend of mine this Saturday and we are in charge of all the food. Therefore the last couple days have been spent planning the menu and the groceries.
