No, I meant manual windows and locks. Thank goodness, since I don't know how to drive stick.

Speaking of things you never see any more, just recently I saw a MILKMAN delivering milk. In glass bottles. wow
In DC? Really? Must have been some sort of CSA thing.

I was just thinking how convenient that would be. I do buy cream in glass bottles, but I haven't found a way to get it delivered.

I love milk in glass bottles. I also miss my egg boy.

I have to learn! And soon. There's a stick shift car sharing my parking pad now. Never saw the point of it. So much more fiddly than a regular car!
My grandparents owned a dairy store and we got milk delivered from them until it closed in the early 80s. That was the best milk ever.

Almost all the grocery stores around here have milk in glass bottles available.

Once you get used to it, it just becomes second nature. It can be a pain in stop and go traffic though. I'm so used to manuals that sometimes automatics get on my nerves, "Hey car, I didn't want to shift gears right now."

Whole Foods also sells milks in glass bottles but I assume the deposit is as expensive as it was in MD, so that becomes a pain.
If they sold it at the farmers' market here like Ronnybrook Farm in NY then I would get it every week.
You'd think there would be more people into this concept in CA.

That's what everyone tells me. But they all learned when they were young people! I am old and unable to easily learn new things.
