I Have Way Too Much Imagination
I have to recount this strange daydream I've been having lately!
Our local recyclers won't take yogurt cups of any kind .
I can only save so many without turning into my mother.
Asst. yogurt cups line the kitchen shelves like a flimsy , eclectic ( I'm being kind --totally mismatched is what it should read) bowl set .
She's trying to pass herself off as "green', but she saves so many other things, that it's more along the lines of the women that collect dozens of cats.Read : she's nearly mental about saving yogurt containers .
So when I talked to the waste company about the pile up vs toss sitch , they suggested I could go around & offer them to daycare centers /kindergartens for the kids to paint with or make crafts.
I began envisoning this scenario of Steff & I driving up to a school , I lean out while cracking on some gum and motion to the children playing behind the fence,
" Hey kids, youse want some good stuff to use for painting and crafts ?"
( I sound like a "Soprano " here somehow)
Steff pops open trunk and a huge pile of cleaned , different shape and size yogurt containers gleam in the sunlight.
Excited little faces gawk at the splendor of plastic ripe for the taking.
I wink , "Why doncha go in and get your teach , so's we can make a little deal??!"
