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 
)

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

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 
).

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

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

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

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

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?
