God help anyone who disobeys my recycling system. I have all the separated bins. I’m very adamant about it because I try to be a good citizen of the world, I really do. I even use eco-friendly cleaning products, but sometimes you just have to break open the disinfectant. Some jobs require it. – Linda Evangelista
