Ode to Orangina

Thank you France for making Orangina....(which is currently bottled by Coca-Cola).

Orangina is one of my most favorite things!!!!!! Orangina is sooooo wonderful and my happy-place in a can or bottle!!!

I just got a fresh shipment in from France (thanks to SAJF) and a new flavor to try (well new to me).....In France they have lots of different flavors and Diet!!!! They also have it available in liter form. WOW!!

My love for Orangina stems from being a little girl and admiring the funny shaped bottles. My brother loved it ....and because I looked up and wanted to be like big brother I tried it and LOVED IT!!! It became this drink that mom would buy as a treat for us when she would find it and remember!

It has been a comfort and calming friend throughout the years and trying times!
I guess I am a bit of an addict....it is not that I drink it all the time....but if I want it and can't find it.....@#$#@&*&&@#$@!!!




When befriending a fellow Orangina lover I realized my unusual love/need...... when I could list in detail the places/locations for him to buy Orangina. .....Yeah folks...that information was a conversation stopper as everyone in the room just started at me and then looked down at their feet.

Leaving me looking crazy and saying, "What?" "Hey look I am totally normal!" "Whatever...like you are all perfect." ....Oh Orangina...I love you!
