										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today I am coming out of the closet.  I am baring my soul and confessing that I am not a recycler, re-user or re-purposer.  I really want to be.  I truly care about our environment, love nature and want to be frugal by recycling, re-using and re-purposing.  But for some reason I don&#8217;t do as much as I should in this area.  Maybe this will be my New Year&#8217;s Resolution for 2013.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>So instead of just jumping in and taking on a huge project like installing solar panels, I know that I need to take baby steps.  Imagine my excitement when I saw this post on recycling a water bottle as a spout for your chocolate chips.  I felt energized!  I felt like I could do this!  Baby steps, Debbie, baby steps.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>All I needed to was was to cut the top off of a water bottle.  Stick my chocolate chip bag through the hole.  Fold back the chip bag.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.thisgrandmaisfun.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/chip-collage.jpg"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-1771" title="chip collage" src="https://www.thisgrandmaisfun.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/chip-collage-204x1024.jpg" alt="" width="204" height="1024" /></a></p>
<p>And then no matter what I did, I couldn&#8217;t get the chocolate chips to pour out! I tried squishing, pulling the bag as tight as possible, but&#8230;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Major.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Fail.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Sigh.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Now I am going to have to throw this water bottle in the trash.  The <strong><em>recycled</em></strong> trash can.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Sorry to report that <em><strong>This Pin Flopped!</strong></em></p>
