I've been writing about this too, and trying to tell my friends for years. The best you can do is to show with example. People are more ready to accept the idea of alternative wrapping papers when you give them a green gift in green wrapping. (Not the color folks, the concept.) Exactly!

My favorite is the colorful ads from the newspaper. Thin strips curl just like curling ribbon! You have some wonderful ideas here…things I never thought of.

Recently my husband and I were in detroit for 3 weeks. On one of the weekends we were told to visit the town of Frankenmuth 2 hrs from detroit which was a great tourist attraction. After reading their website where it said "Little Bavaria" or "visiting germany without your passport" or the best of Germany outside of Germany we got curious. We visited it and found that it had lot of german influence with building codes, stores, the way people dressed etc. They had stores selling all German stuff. But since I did not know much about Germany I did not what the terms Little Bavaria or Black Forest meant. Also everything seemed pretty expensive. The minorahs were for 200 dollars. Could you in any of your post write about Germany? Is everything in germnay that expensive? If we made a trip to Germany which would be the best time and which part of germany should we stay? Are bed and breakfast a better option? I would really like to enjoy German life and not typical commercial attractions. Hi Katie,
