This is a Plate


THIS IS A PAPER PLATE

This is a paper plate..one of my little luxuries. I think it's a little ridiculous to run the dishwasher every day, so I buy paper plates. I know it's a luxury and if I'm looking to save money, I probably shouldn't buy them, but I can't help it! I don't want to wash 20 plates a day (ok, maybe that's a bit exagerated), I like my kids being self-sufficient enough to clear their dishes and put them in the garbage, rather than stacking them in the sink (my grandmother has a stacking issue-we're NEVER allowed to stack dirty dishes) where they will wait to be cleaned by the dishwashing fairy. True, Birkley is tall enough to wash her dishes herself, which she often does. Peyton needs a couple more inches on her. So, until my girls are tall enough to do ALL the dishes, I will continue to buy paper plates. Sorry, it's not so eco-friendly to all my greeny friends, but it's Bree-friendly. I will continue to buy paper plates and forgo a brow wax...one luxury for another! Praise the paper plate!
