Hi Gittemary! The huge "measuring cup" is actually a beaker! It is used in research labs to help contain chemical liquids of all sorts and assist on making solutions. They are made of a special glass, as well as all labware, that withstands huge temperatures. I don't recomend putting food on it because labware is used with all sorts of chemicals and, at the lab, we need to use special contamination cleaning techniques. Just wanted to warn you! I'm from Portugal btw, and I'm a environmental biotechnology researcher - I'm working on developing a solution based on plants and bacteria to remove metals and pharmaceuticals from the environment. Love your channel!

Thank you for commenting about what is happening in Gaza and Israel. Your channel is a form of escape but it’s good to acknowledge the humanitarian crisis.

The f*** episode has to happen! April 1st at least ;)

I'm from Germany where we also have the deposit return scheme for glass, bottles, cans which is great. I've been living in Scotland for over 7 years and they want to start implementing that as well. But it seems as if it's being skipped cause too much effort and money that needs to be put into by stores and pubs or whatnot 🙄 Yessss, I think that a f*** impact video is so necessary!!

the snail print is so adorable!

Love the snail your mom made🐌 So very cute and something to live by😊

The sims soundtrack 😂😂. I have never thought about it. Loove your coat.

Thank you for making zero waste achievable. It is too easy to stop trying to be better because it always feels like failing.

Dude, I still love that you use the sims soundtracks as your cleaning playlist. Talk about hyperfocus through activating nostalgia and dopamine!

Thé sims soundtrack to get chores done is actually genius

Denmark sounds great regarding less waste life, I like your area too, you are absolutely right about social media “news”, plus, this has been a very entertaining post 👍

Thats a chemistry beaker what a find!

OMG, I thought only I am so crazy to listen to the music from The Sims to get my chores done, also while painting the living room...made my day ☺️

Hi from Australia. We have a Return & Earn system here for cans, most plastic bottles & some glass bottles. I often use the money generated (10 cents per item) to pay for my thrift shop finds. Thanks for your video - it’s always an inspiration. 😍

Girl use some type of paste next time your hanging your picture! Put a dot on the back of the picture where you hang it and then set it on the wall. The paste will go on the wall where you’re supposed to put your nail after you put your mail. Wipe the paste right off. And know exactly where your hooks are supposed to go!

This kind of returning of cans, glass and plastic bottles are common in lot of Europe countries and I'm pretty sure in Australia as well

And ‘Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close’?? Such a great book, would love to see more of what you read :)

Honestly, I love how you can just put a nail in the wall to hang something 😅 my new building concrete walls make it such a hassle to hang anything

We have a really similar deposit system for cans and bottles in Germany, too. So it was really interesting to see how the sign on bottles and cans in Denmark differes to the german one that is more rectangular :) And I totally get you feeling not so good about thr world news. Sometimes it feels as if everything is just getting worse. But then there are also people like you who are advocating for important topics and inspire others to make the world a little better every day - even if it is just through sharing your basil plant with a caterpillar and sharing that wholesome moment on the internet ;) Thank you for that!

In Croatia, larger stores also have bottle return options.

Great video. I wish we could return our glass but here in the US; there is only a few states that allow this. I love the apartment; gorgeous. As always you look goregous too!!

I really love watching the food you make and eat - more of that please 😊

Dear Gittemary! In many Videos you talk about not recycable paperproducts. Sometimes I think you are just wrong. 30 years ago I started my apprenticeship in a paperfactory and we recycled newspapers and magazines. To make new newspaper and magazines. Fat contamination or attached give-aways are causing no problems in the process. There are so many facts about paper and recycling, that I would love, if you had the time to dive deeper in this topic. Please get in contact with one of the big companies. I am sure, everybody would love to answer your questions and I am pretty sure you will be invited to a factory to see everything by yourself. Papermakers and paper technologists are really proud of their profession and we love to share our knowledge. Best wishes Judith

I love soup on a a crisp day! Now that fall has arrived in Canada, I'm back into soup making. Not sure how thrilled my children are about it :)

Always love a vlog!

How do I know that I love this video? Well, Gittemary, we synched on creativity and doing important errands about self growth!

Hi, thank you for the video and for a little form of escapism. Loved the thrift store finds!

Netherlands has the same scheme where you pay extra for plastic bottles and now cans as well and you get that money back when you return it to be recycled in the stores :)

I love snails, so that print from your mom is the best!

I been watching on and off for years and this year i just realized how much I love the name does it have a meaning

Watched your video then got thinking about my garden and watched a video on making indigenous microorganisms. They were using your exact measuring vessel in the video. 😄 We also have the bottle and can recycling here in my state since 1976 with a deposit paid upfront. 90% of cans/bottles are recycled because of it.

We love a Tom of Finland moment! 😌 Also strongly agree on the pear >>> apples situation :)

Girl! That coat! 🙌🔥

Awwwwh yes, I'm not the only who works to sims music 😂 besties.

Thank you so much for your video I greatly appreciate all your videos your videos are amazing 👏.

Loved this realistic look at living zero waste 💪 Random question but I really need your advice Gittemary 🙏 Is a reusable cotton advent calendar more sustainable than a plastic/card chocolate calendar that you buy each year for the holidays? 🎄 We would use the cotton one every year & it would support a small business that hand makes them. But its not like a T-shirt we can wear year round, it would just be used for one month each year. I know cotton requires extensive work to produce 🤔 Help much appreciated!

Omg, the nostalgia! I am definitely trying the Sims Soundtrack hack! 😁

i never thought I'd ask for a short, but can we please please please have a short of the part where you comment on the comment about cleaning up your language and the environmental impact of saying fuck 🤣🤣🤣

Queen you look so elegant with that clip hairstyle 💗💗💗

Still loving your videos as much as when i first came across your channel 3 years ago! Ive enjoyed all the change and being able to warch you grow and learn from you! I had a question about your new compost set up, is it a new one is there a video on it? I might have missed it when looking🐚

I enjoyed the video. One thing. Please, please do not bike and film at the same time. Even if there are no cars on that street, focus on riding then make the video. That bike is super cute! ❤

we have tise in Sweden too and i think they have it in Norway ;)

lamp?? in the kitchen??! i have never thought of that! - but i am so taking that idea!

This was fun to watch wile eating breakfast.

Loved this video! Im so happy you have a boyfriend! He's a lucky guy! What do you have in your kitchen on the slanted wall? Also, why do you think soup is sad?

oh my god you watch our flag means death too I'M SO EXCITED IT'S MY FAVORITE THING EVER

Im curious, isnt there option in Denmark to opt for e-receipt? Some shops here in Germany like dM or Rewe have it (via App)so you dont have to be bothered with non-recyclable ones 😊 i like that

We have really good return system in Croatia

love your videos as ever! Where did you get your at home compost bin from, I am moving into a flat soon and they have no food composting avaliable.

Nice recycling cans 👏

Do you have any good tips on sustainable calendar and notebooks? I'm swedish so a Scandi/European option would be nice

Wow love your look at the end of the video with the greenoutfit so gorgeous❤

Lol I have a china serving platter made in West Germany that I found in a thrift store!! Its beautiful but part of me bought it because of the history!

😂😂😂 I love your cussing

It's always important to use your voice influencer or not

Sorry if this is a stupid question but where do you live and where are you from?

❤

Your boyfriend? Have I missed something??? I guess I need to check if I have missed any of your videos then 😅

❤❤❤❤❤

Team Apple 🍎 !!! . . . Pears?! How could you? ha ha ha

Do a comparative analysis of environmental impact of danish vs English swears, we need the science

Our flag means death is amazing😍😀

👂🏻 boyfriend 👀 really happy for you :)

Are you vegan or vegetarian?

🐛🦋 🍅🥦🥔

Boyfriend??

First time me and my husband and my three kids had M t n d e w And Doctor pepper And Coca-Cola. We were taking a break from drinking pop And we was all drinking water You feel a difference when you take a break from drinking pop And drink lots of water It makes you fool butter , It's nice to have a treat every once in a while And we had snicker candy bars And watch a good movie on tv a funny show lol 😆.

Polyester is plastic.

First time in two weeks that I put makeup on And it makes me feel really good And I have green eyes I have and N r b a n d e c a y N a k e D H e a t !! It makes my green eyes pop The orange the red in the brown Makes my eyes stand out There is only two percent green eyes in the whole world .

Use the huge measuring cup to make a Green colored cocktail for Halloween. 🎃🧪

Omg, the nostalgia! I am definitely trying the Sims Soundtrack hack! 😁
