Based upon this Surprise Challenge, on Saturday, we set the timer for 15 minutes and the family fanned out through the house to collect as much trash as we could. (Okay, I use the term “we” loosely since I volunteered to do everyone’s lunch dishes while they went on their trash “boogie.”) With much enthusiasm, each person brought back bag after bag of trash to our central collection spot in the kitchen. As I was washing the dishes, I just kept exclaiming, “Where are you getting all of this?!”
And when, after 15 minutes, all of the bags and boxes were tallied and weighed, “we” had collected 116 pounds of trash!
I still don’t know where they got all of it.

What can I say, we are a “heavy” trash kind of family.
