I am always trying to donate things I no longer need. Cook mags go to rest homes to use for menus, buttons to rest homes too for repairs of patients clothes, buttons to a little sewing shop and laundries, love them, Hard books to the library. Dishes to the local misson for underprivledged. To much food in garden goes to food bank and Lighthouse mission or our agape house for battered women. Look around as there is always a place waiting for just what you need to give away.

The other day I was in wal-mart and watched the produce man throw away a hole garbage can of nice ripe banannas,was replacing them with half green ones.Another lady was throwing away a garbage can of corn on the cobb.Why dont these stores offer markdowns or send their stuff to a food pantry or something.It just seemed like an awful waste when so many in our country are going without

I donate everything I can. My whole neighborhood has some of my perennials as I just hate throwing them in the trash when I have to thin them out.
I was so annoyed when at a Wendy's last week. I went back to the counter to ask for some lettuce on my fish sandwich that was not invisible. Instead of just adding a piece of lettuce, he threw the whole sandwich in the trash & told the cook to make another sandwich.
