Ashley Van Elswyk, Editorial Assistant *** Because We Buy Oat Milk Glenna Turnbull Each morning starts with a cup of coffee, because who can function without that first hit of caffeinebut not too much caffeine so just a half-caf latte for me that I make at home because its cheaper and doesnt create more waste with those takeout single-use cups, and not with cows milk because cows milk was meant for baby cows, thats what Eric says, and never almond milk, because, well, Eric is convinced the almond milk industry is run by the mafia and uses too much waterwater that Eric would rather secretly snake out when nobody is looking, late at night in well-hidden hoses that slither into the cedar hedges they tell you never to plant in the Okanagan because of the drought and the fires that rage herefire season, heat domes, we are doomed, but especially doomed if we put cows milk in our coffee so we only buy oat milk because mares eat oats and goats eat oats and little lambs eat ivy and the ivy grows up on the side of the house, its tendrils gripping on for dear life but Eric says it will crumble the bricks if we leave it but we cant kill it because its leaves are lters for all the carbon monoxide we are producing, the greenhouse gases which have very little to do with the greenhouse Eric built in the backyard which then became my job to tend, to make sure the bugs dont get in and if they do then I have to kill them because its okay to kill the bad bugs just not the good bugs and then everything gets watered with more of the water were not supposed to be using but its okay, because if we grow stuff in our yard then we arent contributing to the greenhouse gas problem by having to drive to the store
