My random thoughts

Lots of thoughts going through my head today. Not sure why. And of course no answers. So I decided to share them with you.

Last night I opened the closet to get a band aid and noticed we have 3 boxes of band aids. I thought that was not right for me to have 3 boxes of band aids and Haiti to have none. It was not a good feeling.

I have another thought running through my head. Although I have not thought it all the way through, it is just a pondering thought. I hate leftovers. I only want to enjoy something 1 time. I do not want to enjoy it the next day. But I also hate throwing food away. Then I started thinking about those people who are trying to cut back to survive financially. And I got the idea of passing left overs on to other people. Now I know because of health reasons the Health Dept. would look down on this. But if it happened on a small scale maybe just between 5 families maybe it would work. If people took their left overs and put them in containers and gave them to another family, that is like getting a meal, not leftovers. And if I got food from someone else I don't think I would think of it as left overs because I did not enjoy it the day before. And I think it would cut down on grocery bills for everyone. OK am I crazy?
