Dot’s seventh day of giftmas, plus a tip on choosing better baking supplies.

Dear Reader,

While some Christmas trees live on as coastal protection, others become mulch, and yet others break down into compost, Juniper Ridge’s Christmas Fir collection resurrects thousands of lucky pines into sustainably made candles, room spray, incense, and bath and body products, all bearing the seasonal scent of fir. And the company forages and wild harvests other plants to create natural scents for its products.

Dot plans to order several items to have on hand — they make fabulous hostess gifts. 

Evergreenly,

Dot

If you already have parchment paper, then use it — and reuse it as long as there’s no discoloration. (Most parchment paper is not recyclable but you can buy a compostable one.) Or choose silicone for continued use. Using what you already have is always the greener choice, but once your parchment paper is discolored and no longer reusable, switch to Silpat mats.
