Beyond BYOB
I admit it, I’m hooked on BYOB - no, not the bottle, but on the many ways I go out into the world prepared to consume less. I bring my own grocery bag, water bottle, coffee mug, napkin and bandana. I also bring my own plate and utensils to potluck meals. You might have to try it to believe me, but this is FUN in a “Sock it to You” kind of way. Bring Your Own makes a statement.
So, when I saw this guy walk in the coffee shop with a ceramic mug with flames on it, I
had to ask him about it (ok, he was cute, too). As it turns out, Aydin made this mug himself - in 5th grade. I was impressed enough to ask for this picture.
Moral of the story: Women Love Men Who BYOB.
ps. I know you may be wondering what’s up with the bandana, so here’s 7 uses:
To replace a paper napkin or towel
To put your bicycle chain back on
To dab the bit of sweat you produced on said bicycle
To make a fashion statement
To wrap up a leftover sandwich
To hide a bad hair day
To drop - in hopes that a beautiful stranger will return it to you
