I love milk in glass bottles. I also miss my egg boy.
Let him do his thing, and then you get him out. No messing with him for laughs.

No, I meant manual windows and locks. Thank goodness, since I don't know how to drive stick.
Ok, now I understand. That I have seen.

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.

It might actually be easier since the whole driving thing isn't new. Just learn someplace where there is plenty of space in front of you (behind you in reverse), especially in a car with a lot of power.

I don't remember what the deposit is, but I bring the empties back so it's moot at this point.

I do have a good teacher lined up (boyfriend refuses to teach me himself and that's probably a good thing).
