    Today, I went outside and went on a walk. I decided to bring a bag with me and pick up trash that I find on my walk.

  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Food
    How does knowing the difference between use by, sell by, and best by dates empower you to make better decisions?

    Knowing the difference between the dates allows you to know what to use first so the item doesn't go bad. If it is 4/3 and you have chicken that expires on 4/5 and 4/9 you will want to use the chicken the expires on 4/5 first.

    Today, I sorted out the recyclables to make sure there was no food mixed in.
