Already wasted

Wow, I've already wasted. Amazing how easy it is.

This past week I put about two heaping tablespoons of peanut butter into Katelyn's lunch for her to dip graham crackers into. I cleaned out her lunch box today and automatically put the container of remaining peanut butter into the sink.

While doing the dishes, I spooned the leftover peanut butter into the garbage. THEN I thought "Peanut butter doesn't spoil. I should have used that for peanut butter sandwiches."

I realized that it's going to take some THINKING and intentionality (is that a word) to really stop wasting.

My brain hurts just thinking about it.
