wrap it up
categories: magics
I’m always looking for plastic alternatives in the kitchen, leading to an almost frenzied snatching up of covered Pyrex dishes whenever I see them at thrift stores. I’m excited to try this beeswax infused food storage wrap, and I found the French cheese wrapping paper at the local co-op for 99 cents. It’s hard to be vigilant about this stuff, so it’s great to see more and more options out there for us crazy hippies.

Definitely worth the $25! A big bummer for me is that I can’t find milk in a glass jar in Brisbane, and I’ve never seen cheese not wrapped in plastic. How does the cheese wrapping paper work?

I love that this stuff is self-sealing. I try to avoid disposables but sometimes can’t help but give in to the convenience…
