My Mom’s mason jars have replaced plastic baggies in my house. They dont leak and are easy to sterilize. I also use them for beverages at home and on the go. Ice water, iced tea and lemonade just taste better in a mason jar and the ring and lid make a perfect on the go beverage. Leftovers can be stored and re-heated in the jars.
I also use a bedside commode in my bathroom. After using replace the lid. Once a day I dump and flush, rinse and sprinkle with baking soda.
My kitchen does not have a stove. I started using small appliances like rice cookers, crock pots and a toaster oven instead. After 18 months of not using the stove I got rid of it.The month I quit using the stove my electric bill dropped like a rock.
I splurged on the thermal drapes at the dollar store and they also reduced my energy consumption.
