I actually had a friend in the US that used disposable plates much of the time - I couldn't fathom such a waste of money & resources!Kezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15915193876879614644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2103758876428147420.post-54728378600788111952010-03-12T16:05:20.425+11:002010-03-12T16:05:20.425+11:00Frances, you've restored my faith in your coun...Frances, you've restored my faith in your countrywomen :) I continue to find, in you, a kindred spirit on so many levels!Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07511855282323456046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2103758876428147420.post-57138028950476182542010-03-12T10:47:55.091+11:002010-03-12T10:47:55.091+11:00Trac - you know I'm with you, a fellow wonder ...Trac - you know I'm with you, a fellow wonder cloth user! We only use paper towel when we have pizza and serviettes if we have visitors :) I never ever clean with them so a roll lasts us probably at least 6 months.Relhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14857426893482706263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2103758876428147420.post-14033504931466997272010-03-12T10:00:50.769+11:002010-03-12T10:00:50.769+11:00I don't know about your fellow Aussie homemake...I don't know about your fellow Aussie homemakers, but as an American homemaker that I use very few paper towels, though I keep them on hand. We use cloth napkins and I clean with rags. A lot of people I know go through the paper towels with abandon, but it seems awfully wasteful to me.<br /><br />francesLeft-Handed Housewifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15014518128739580267noreply@blogger.com
