Day: September 13, 2010

Was chatting with a friend the other day about how we could remember when milk, cheese and eggs—and Charles Chips potato chips—were all delivered right to our back door. That was, oh, so long ago…some of you, maybe most of you, probably don’t even remember such things. But once upon a time in America, milk delivery was part of our morning ritual. Today, Royal Crest Dairy in Colorado continues that tradition with home delivery throughout the Rocky Mountains. “We’ve got milkmen who’ve worked the same route for 25 years and families who’ve been with us for three or four generations,” notes owner Paul R. Miller in this month’s Country Living. I wish someone would bring back milk delivery in the Southeast. We’d sign right up!
