Dylan Gregory 10/28/2016 8:43 AMWatched the documentary Cowspiracy with some friends last night. They're prideful carnivores so I'm not sure how much it changed their minds, though they said wouldn't hurt to cut down their meat consumption.
We definitely had some citicisms about the movie. It makes great points about the current form of the factory farming industry but there was quite a bit of needless pandering and over exageration. Overall it was a good movie.-
Dylan Gregory 10/28/2016 8:44 AMAlso I got drunk and ate a burger... Right after the movie too. What's wrong with me?? 😨

Dylan Gregory 10/23/2016 11:09 PMMade pasta again because it was so good (and stupid easy)! This time with some mushrooms and that was a good touch.
It's not really a part of my challenge (forgot to pick the extra goals) but I've been using a reusable bag while shopping as well as a coffee thermas. Haven't used a paper cup for coffee since the challenge started and feeling pretty good about that -
Dylan Gregory 10/19/2016 2:27 AM🎶 The best part of waking up 🎶
Has absolutely nothing to do with a five minute shower 😤-
Dylan Gregory 10/19/2016 8:43 PMIt's always been a guilty pleasure to just stand in a warm shower and listen to music while waking up. Being rushed is such nuisance but worth it to save so much water. It adds up. -
April Ann Fong 10/19/2016 8:40 AMAw! I used to shower for a minute, turn the water off, lather up, and then have a nice four minute rinse! Good luck!

Dylan Gregory 10/17/2016 6:57 PMMy niece thought it'd be funny to knock over my rain buckets :( Made pasta today with organic tomatoes, onions, and jalepenos. Also used some basil from my own basil plant. http://www.donalskehan.com/recipes/marthas-one-pan-pasta/-
April Ann Fong 10/19/2016 8:40 AMPasta sounds yummy! -
Christina Graves 10/17/2016 10:41 PMDon't fret Dylan, I have more rain water if you need it..

Dylan Gregory 10/15/2016 3:41 PMSet up some rain buckets a couple nights ago and they're filling up quick. Not sure what to do with all the water. @.@ Made some vegetarian stir fry with organic and locally grown mushrooms, brocolli and green onions. The 5 minute shower was tough-
Dylan Gregory 10/19/2016 1:29 AMThat's a brilliant idea! I planned on botteling it and using it to water plants and such but the more uses the better -
Christina Graves 10/17/2016 10:46 PMYou could flush your toilet with the rain water, rather than using the toilet tank. Just an idea.
