And There Goes the Paper Towels
Growing up I saw my one set of grandparents save and repurpose many things. As a child, my Nanny drew a whole town on the back of a flatten cardboard box that would be stored under the couch.

We are now about a month into this new norm of social distancing, practically cleared out social calendars, and a completely new normal.
