There will come a day when I'm all grown up

I've decided to give my poor bones a break by giving up soda. Or at least not drinking as much of it as I usually do.

I'm picturing my skeleton looking like driftwood- the hole-y kind.

But my quest of a soda-free life begs the question: What do grown ups drink?

I don't like drinking water as the sole beverage at meals. I don't think I could handle milk. Although beer and wine and Jameson are fine, my liver is begging me not to do it wrong for the good of my bones.

My sister Emma gave me one option: It turns out she partakes of the mighty seltzer.

I don't like seltzer- it tastes like dead soda. However, I'm told it's a taste that can be acquired and there are all sorts of nifty flavors out there. I expect I'll have to pick me up a case and get to acquiring the taste for it.
