Sorry for this question but I don't understand. What is: "a sit down meal?"

we also have a compost bin. I also separate plastics, cardboard, etc. My goal someday is to be completely off the electric power grid. I want to have solar panels and a windmill. I can dream as these are quite costly.

Maksi, most of us eat "the normal way" too. But when you have a lot of people over sometimes there isn't room for everyone to sit down at the table, so they help themselves to food, like a smorgasborg or a buffet or snacks, and they don't have a "sit down (at the table) meal"

Disposible diapers absorb a lot more than cloth diapers. I wish they were around when my three kids were little, I would have used them. Grandkids don't get diaper rash with the disposibles. Poopy cloth diapers were no fun to clean.

use that as a napkin. Their sleeves? I didn't check their sleeves.
I took 14 cloth napkins out of their holders and re-washed them this morning. #15 was used - it was mine. I don't get it.
