Music to My Ears

This morning, as we were eating bagels off paper plates, Jamie said (and I paraphrase):

Maybe this summer, when our schedule is a little more flexible, we can give up paper plates.

I tempered my enthusiasm because I was afraid to be too hopeful, and I commented that it might be good to have some in the house for those random bad days when you REALLY don't want to wash dishes.  He said "...but they're like snacks.  If we have them in the house, we'll use them."  

Wow.  A convert.  I suppose I'd better not tell him that I've spent a lot of time looking at solar cookers online...
