Until recently we were going through a lot of plastic drinking straws at our house. My four-year-old is going through an "I-can't-possibly-drink-this-withought-a-straw" phase, so we bought a bag of cheap and brightly colored straws to help keep the boy hydrated until this blows over.

I had seen other bloggers mention their reusable straws and I was intrigued. I don't like using plastic or the idea of disposable things, so I decided to give these stainless steel straws a try.
