So, I have about decided that plastic is just plain evil. The chemicals in it messing with our endocrine systems, no way to get rid of it, never breaks down. It has solved lots of problems but created lots too. I am trying to avoid plastic as much as I can, but it is impossible!

Now this about huge amounts of plastic in the ocean:

Reduce, reuse, recycle. Simplify. Local. But really, how do I freeze my local corn if not in plastic bags? The berries can be canned in nice glass jars, but not as whole unprocessed berries but as more of a topping or jelly. My head hurts.
