Glass Bottles.

Ever since moving to Colorado, I've been very interested in buying milk from a local dairy, and doing the whole milk delivery thing...but in the past it was never very economical for me, since many of the places that did milk delivery always had a minimum order, and when it was just me, I couldn't see myself getting through that much milk per week.  Fast forward to 2005, I have a husband, we both drink milk - opportunity to get delivered milk right?  We still don't see it as something we'd be able to consume in a week, especially when the minimum order is 3 bottles of milk.  *Sigh*

So, just the other day, we were out having lunch at the Cheeky Monk (which btw, is awesome),  and had just enjoyed a fabulous meal and a decadent Belgium beer, and we decided to go walk through this little Farmer's Market that was near where we parked our car.  We walked by one of the booths and there Longmont Dairy.  YES!  We had just talked a few days before about how doing milk delivery might be an option for us now, since the baby girl is now drinking whole milk, and that we're pretty heavy milk drinkers right now too.  So we wandered over to check out their deal, and it turned out that not only did they have milk, but they had tons of other stuff, and that we could swap out our order each week if we wanted to, and that we could do it all online!!  Sign me up!  Just this morning, we got our first delivery of milk, which came in glass bottles...2 half-gallon bottles of 1% and a Quart of whole milk for the munch.  And as our sign up bonus, a free quart of chocolate milk...yum!!   I'm thrilled!!
