Featured in the Concord Insider!

This week the Concord Insider featured a "green" issue discussing how to reuse, waste less energy or otherwise save the planet. They will have reader tips, what it's really like to try to live greenly for a week and a list of local resources. My friend April thought my bags would fit right in so she sent them my way. Thanks April!!

Recycled Plastic Bags on NH's WMUR - NH Chronicle


I get to be on TV on NH's WMUR's NH Chronicle!

Okay, first...HUGE sigh of relief. My segment for NH Chronicle has been taped and should air in about three weeks. The producer, Donna, said they have been off the air and they pretty much have the next two weeks all set so I do not think it will be right away. I checked the WMUR site under Chronicle (http://www.wmur.com/chronicle/index.html) and they seem to have next week already up. So, there should be some advance notice when I will be on.

I honestly was crazy nervous (stomach in the throat kind of nervous) and I have to say that they (Donna and Chris - the cameraman) were so very nice and genuine. It was very low key. We talked about my bags, recycling, how I got started...etc. Chris set up. We started taping and talked again about my bags and stuff. Then camera shots of my bags, the plastic bags I use to make my bags, some shots of me crocheting, even put my Jadon in there helping me string.

I feel so lucky to be able to be featured. I will post when I know more about when the segment will be on.

So many bags...so little time!
