    I found myself at a Sustainable PGH restaurant this weekend. Azorean Cafe is soooo delicious!

    With two days left, I've barely gone by a day without plastic cutlery and such. It has really opened my eyes! I love my daily walks and making time to express my gratitude of others. <3 Thanks for hosting this challenge!

    Avoiding disposables is surprisingly difficult. Especially when I visit a restaurant, and they serve all their customers with disposable utensils and plates. Oye.

    Had to switch out my biking challenge for something else - my bike isn't great in the snow and ice. Still having a lot of fun with this challenge!
