Aluminum is 100% recyclable and can be reused indefinitely without degrading its quality. Before putting it in the recycling bin why not wash it with soap and water and reuse for some leftovers first. Wash it with the rest of your dishes and let it dry, then store it away until your next cooking adventure.
Fun fact: Americans toss out enough aluminum every three months to rebuild our entire commercial air fleet, according to the Aluminum Association.

All morning the radio has been playing different stories about these kids, some have survived and in remission others were not as fortunate. I really should not have worn mascara this morning. It took everything I had not to pull the car over and start bawling right there on the side of the highway. Of course the country station I was listening to played every sad song ever written in between stories. I can’t even imagine what these children are going through let alone their parents. I have become a Partner in Hope and I challenge you to do the same.
