...pint bottles of lovely farm milk...

...what is it about milk in pints?....
...we love milk bottles...
...we love our milkman...
...we love collecting the home-delivered milk in bottles each morning...
...from the front doorstep...
&
...we have a lovely old stone doorstep...


...WE LOVE IT...

...quite honestly i think my son loves it the most...
...he drinks ALOT of milk...
...so he really LIKES our milkman...


...the milkman calls me *hun*...
...thats nice isn't it...
...milk delivered in pint bottles on an old stone step every morning by a milkman that calls you hun...

...no more big mulitnational plastic milk containers for this house...
...its not a long trip for our milkman...
...the local farm is not far from the kiddos school...
...in fact they could almost pick up the milk...
...but as i said...we love it delivered to our doorstep...


...i even love washing the bottles out...
&
...popping them back in their little wire basket for tomor morning...
...i really do...

...our local farm delivers in ALL weathers...


...the sun is out & summer is well & truely here...
...but in the depths of winter i think...
...we will love him even more...

...it's a no brainer don't you think?...

  1. I am very envious...we have no milkman, I don't think any one in our area does anymore :(

    I love milk in milk bottles....a bit tea in china cups, I do think it just tastes nicer :)

    When my brother and I were younger, we used to take it in turns at the week-end to help our local milkaman, we loved it :)

    Have a lovely day Melissa :) xo

  2. Oh what lovely bottles - I am having a love affair with bottles at the moment! No milkman here - I remember those days long long long ago - I still remember the birds pecking the top of the bottle to get the cream! Leanne xx

  6. We used to have milk delivered when I was a child. Sometimes I kind of wish I got milk delivered now. Milk bottles are strangely stylish and finding milk on my doorstep would fill me with nostalgia.

  7. You're so right, the milkman is precious and growing far too rare. Wish we had them here. When we're in the UK my children love having milk delivered to the door.

  8. You do live in a slice of heaven if you have a milkman. So lucky and I think the correct word is QUAINT!

  9. This is awesome Melissa! I want to move to where you live! That truly is country living and exactly the way in which I want to live! Any houses for sale in your neighbourhood? ~ Tina xx
