Update: Washing out my peanut butter jar right after breakfast gives me a boost

My empty jars would often sit and get sticky. Now I rinse them right away, and it's a simple act that makes my kitchen feel fresher. Do you have any little habits for the planet that make you smile?

Oh man, I feel this so much. That sticky jar residue is the worst, and just letting it dry is a nightmare to clean later. I started doing the same thing with my jam jars and it's such a dumb little relief. My thing is using the leftover water from boiling pasta to water my plants once it cools. Saves water and the plants seem to like the starchy stuff. It feels like a tiny win.

The pasta water for plants trick is great, mine are looking pretty happy too.

After steaming veggies, I pour the cooled water on my herb pots. They get some extra goodies and I use less fresh water. It's a stupidly simple swap that adds up over time.
