    Carpooling to work today. Not doing as well with the vegetarian meal goal.

    Have carpooled more in the past week. Just made a jar of yogurt in an old mayo jar ... been doing that several times a week for 22 years! But I do use a yogurt maker which uses electricity, so not sure how much it actually saves. Haven't managed to reduce my coffee.
