Guest guest Posted July 20, 2005 Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 Ferals, Are we all familiar with the -based http://www.freecycle.org/ ? Let me expain! We talk about not only what to cook... but what to prepare it in or on or with. I am a member of Chicago FreeCycle. In this give-away group, everything is free! People offer what they have to give away, or request what they need or want. All is free... just has to be picked up. So... when someone offers cooking equipment, I think of people in our group... and want to share this FreeCycle resource! Plus... its fun! Jiraph " The cat did not respond. She did not believe in paraphrasing anybody. If people pursued this same feline wisdom, there'd be a lot fewer misunderstandings.

Guest guest Posted July 20, 2005 Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 Jiraph, I love Freecycle.... we have one here in Jax too, and I give away lots of stuff that is useful-but-no-longer-to-me. I've a few useful-but-no-longer-to-them items as well, like a juicer! :-) Handy site.... Amy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 20, 2005 Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 I'm a member of 3 Freecycles in SW Iowa. The Des Moines one definitely gets more traffic, but I've given stuff away and received a few things. Always looking for an item I may not have. I'll be on the hunt for lots of plastic dishes soon, with baby coming I guess we'll have to put the " good " glasses and dishes away for awhile! Gee I never thought I would have " good " dishes! LOL!

Guest guest Posted July 22, 2005 Report Share Posted July 22, 2005 Thanks for that link, Jiraph. A friend of mine joined the freecycle in Eugene group, but i had no idea there was one for Grants Pass. i just joined it; they have 130 members. Too cool. ~ pt ~ Come let us build the ship of the future In an ancient pattern that journeys far.
