Just one more thing

Rate: 1 Flag
It is such a joy to be able to buy sparkling mineral water without all the locavore guilt usually associated with it.  A small country that has its own water and sells litres of it for less than a dollar--heaven!  I do buy the occasional Pellegrino at home, but feel guilty with every sip for the huge carbon footprint I'm leaving. I mean, shipping water, in glass bottles, all the way from Italy?  Ahh!  And so I justify buying Faygo club soda as a substitute because it's bottled in Detroit and that sort of counts as local, right?  Wrong. But now, lovely semester in London now,  I am free to quaff all the lovely bubbly water I like without a moment's pause.  Oh, but wait:  I need to figure out where to take the recycling.

I wish I could go to London so I could drink guilty free sparkling water. Maybe I'll move to Poland Springs, Maine.
