I'm ...Amanda said last night went really well!! I'm so glad that so many people came together as one! It shows the growth in this type of community. It IS a commitment, but the pay-off is so great! Someone else always pays the price for the things we buy & wear every day!<br />This week on ABC Nightly News, they are doing another "made in America" series. Last night was on decorating a dorm room. All those colleges that send out "dorm decoration" catalogs found out that not ONE item in those catalogs were made in America!! NONE!! ABC went out & found comparable items for their experiment and found it was $90 CHEAPER than the "not made in America" stuff!! <br />I know I have wasted a lot in my years, but I have tried to be more thoughtful in my choices in the past couple of years. Maybe because I see & hear things on twitter or through someone's blog post about living, not only within my means, but using sustainable products & clothing. Looking for that Made in America brand. And thanks for the list of stores & places that are good & conscientious. <br />We cannot afford to live with our "head in the sand"! Be bold & intentional in choosing products and retailers!baylormumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05507744023526192400noreply@blogger.com
