Two years ago my husband and I decided that since we both worked and lived in the same city, that we were going to only have 1 car. It has been great, there has only been a handful of times where we wish we had two cars, but not often.
Since I am now a stay at home mom, he takes the car 4 of the 5 days of the week. So if I need something from the store I used to be trapped, until I realized that I can walk there. The local grocery store is 1.75 miles away, so it makes for a nice 3.5 mile with with my little girl on a nice day.
Today I needed some veggies for my turkey soup that I am making, so I walked to the grocery store. Our grocery store prides itself on providing produce from Colorado growers, and so I now make a conscience effort to purchase those items (at least until I get my own garden and don't have to go the grocery store to buy produce).
I was pretty happy, the celery and carrots I needed were on sale and the organic type. Score! But I did forget to bring my reusable bag, bad me.
