thx for the links!

also, on the To-Go Ware, you don’t have to order them online and have them shipped, as they are sold at numerous retailers and they have a store-locater on their site, so i’m also going to go support a local retailer to get mine.

Thanks for the tip! I just started looking for a better replacement for my reusable plastic smoothie cup, and glass straws sound like a perfect way for me to continue to enjoy smoothies (and possibly bubble tea) without the plastic garbage.

Bravo!

This was an awesome thing to find this morning. It’s so fun to find your name on this blog. Though my husband doesn’t understand and gave me a weird look when I said “Fake Plastic Fish talked about me today on her blog.” lol

Anyway this has been a hard week for me as I have been at the hospital watching my best friend’s mom die from a 8 year battle of breast cancer so it was nice to have a little pick me up this morning. Thanks Beth for giving me credit. The funny thing is I haven’t gotten these yet even lol. They are on my “green wish list.”

If you put the glass straws in the siverware basket of your dishwasher each time you run it they will come clean without even using the brushes. Having the brushes for extra use once in a while is neat, but I haven’t had to use them yet! Love the straws — and I better as David is my son!

It's interesting how different this whole plastic-free issue is for each person.

Drinking without a straw--one of the easiest changes I've made.

Giving up slices of prepackaged cake from Whole Foods--a task of herculean proportions for me.

Although, there is a different reason why I miss straws: avoiding teeth discoloration from tea or the occasional Coke. Each time the drink touches my teeth, I cringe a little bit.
