Do not. Even when we have a big meal with family over, my cupboards are still fairly full (when sales are on, I stock up B-) )

Have a fun egg hunt over the Easter holiday?

Do. It not only saves electricity bills but also enables us to cope better with busy days full of appointments.

Ask for paper bags instead of plastic bags at the chemist or newsagent?

If there was need to, I would definitely ask for paper, but I always carry my own cloth bags for any shopping. As well, I have begun using mesh bags for fruits and veggies (instead of using the plastic available at stores) and have already had a few people ask me where I got them (Dollarama ;))).

Often strike up a conversation with the person next to you if on public transportation?

Do. I had two nice conversations with successive people on the bus on Friday evening! I think the second man really appreciated it.

Walk 10-20 minutes instead of taking a bus?

Do not; I have to get up early enough for work, but I don't have time (or place) to watch it right now.

Do, especially if it is bacon & eggs, which might be a main meal.

Definitely do. Especially rice, which I find easier to make than potatoes and the family likes it.

Do not.
(No interest; would rather spend my time and money on other things. :P )

Start seeds inside before the outdoor gardening season?

YES! I do start seeds indoors. (Gardening is one of many reasons not to wear nail polish :) )

Wear a hat while gardening?

No, mainly because I avoid working outside when the sun visible, rather waiting for cloudy days, of which there are plenty enough to choose from this time of year. :) But if I had to work outside in the sun, a hat would go on, to be sure. So, no and yes. ;)) But then, wait, I should clarify that if it is sunny and quite cool, no hat; it is only when the day is sunny and hot that I would wear a hat. So, a few qualifiers there, lol.

In the Autumn, clean up yard leaves with a rake or leaf-blow them?

Do, or rather my husband does, to avoid having combustible materials near the house during dry conditions.

Take three minute showers during water restrictions?
