Not giving up giving up

Lent ends tomorrow,but my commitments do not. I tried a whole range of things this year, taking some inspiration from 40 Acts ( daily suggestions for acts of generosity) that saw me raise conversations about period poverty for example. I also made more of an effort to choose vegan. Mainly tho my efforts focussed in reducing my plastic usage. This was really quite tricky, and I didn't always manage. Some foods we have not had much of as a result - soft fruit for example which I couldn't source without plastic. But overall what we have eaten has tasted better as I've had to put effort in to avoid tubs.
The warm potato salad I've just consumed was delicious; the coleslaw I made earlier this week really felt like I could definitely count it as vegetable portions; the hummus a garlicky delight. Better yet I then used the chickpea water to make a vegan meringue topping for a lemon meringue. I didnt whisk it long enough but it still tasted yummy.
