Milky Way

South Mountain Creamery

One look at junior’s face and it’s pretty obvious that your husband fathered the child (hello, schnoz).

But it’s no surprise that the neighbors have been thinking milkman, given your deep love for South Mountain Creamery, the Maryland-based, family-owned farm that delivers fresh, glass-bottled milk throughout D.C.

Select from whole, 2 percent, skim, and chocolate moo juice, as well as other dairy basics like cream, butter, yogurt, and cheese — all of which are produced without growth hormones, antibiotics, or pesticides. Plus there are cage-free eggs; humanely raised lamb, beef, pork, and chicken; locally grown coffee; and lots of other goodies.

Place your order online and they drop everything at your door.

Which may have the neighbors talking stork.
