Yesterday, I highlighted Liquid Death, a hipster, canned water on sale at Whole Foods. These days my favorite drink is seltzer, made at home using a SodaStream machine, despite its slightly negative effect on health due to its acidity. What is you favorite drink?
If calories were of no concern, then my favorite drink would have to be the wonderfully refreshing egg cream soda.
I don’t know what it is about the drinks I find at Whole Foods, but the latest drink that exudes ironic hipster craziness has got to be Liquid Death.

In October, we learned that lululemon would be opening a pop up at Broadway Plaza in Walnut Creek where GAP used to be and this spot will remain open while the prime spot on the other side expands to take over the Nespresso (relocating next to Neiman Marcus) and Madewell (who will also expand to a larger spot next to Tesla) spots.

Broadway Plaza, Walnut Creek
After several years at Broadway Plaza in Walnut Creek, Amazon Books is closing, not only here, but everywhere. They opened an opportune time, a couple of years after Barnes & Noble closed a few blocks away. And now, in an ironic twist, Barnes & Noble is coming to a new spot in downtown Walnut Creek at Plaza Escuela, where Forever 21 used to be. What goes around, comes around, I suppose! Will you miss Amazon Books at all? I remember when they had a Peet’s cafe, I would get a cheap muffin, and after some browsing, head out to the Capital One cafe a few blocks away for a 50% off drink.
Every day, more and more people go maskless indoors, while various rates continue to drop. Is COVID essentially over, with people taking calculated risks that even if infected, it’s no big deal?
100 Railroad Ave, Danville
