    I actually remembered my reusable straw on Friday when I went out for lunch!

    I would like to give a shout out to culvers in la crosse. They now have an option to recycle plastic. This is great because their utensils, straws, lids, custard cups, ketchup cups are all plastic. I hope other locations have adopted this as well.

    I really need to start carrying my reusable straw with me. I always think about it once I get to the restaurant.
