A linen tablecloth from a thrift store or garage sale can be cut up for napkins, too. I prefer napkins made of heavy fabric, and natural fibers.

I use large, attractive containers for plants for collecting rainwater off the roof. Got them on clearance at Home Depot or Lowes. I only use the collected rainwater in the garden.

Juditur, I agree with balancing the food for the day. If it works out in a meal fine. Otherwise, it'll get there in a few hours. I have a few health challenges which require some strict parameters, and some of my food habits are just because I feel better if I keep them.
