    Too Much Stuff, That was my first thought. Like IL, I never like to plan drinks...All we have in the house is coffee, beer and tap water. If I have company for lunch they bring their own diet soda or smart water. I will put a jug of water in the refrigerator, as we never have ice.

    That's about what I'd do, although I might want a basket of fresh fruit, too. I'd hope that young people can use a reusable water bottle rather than the disposable plastic bottles.

    Yep, our refrigerator doesn’t dispense ice. We have ice trays but that is probably foreign to anyone u der the age of 50.

    We have not had water hooked up to the fridge for over 25 years. Before that we found out the ice got "bad" before we used it.

    I make ice cubes from ice cube trays on a regular basis, quite frequently in the summer. That is one of my culinary specialties!

    Assorted veggie sticks & hummus, dips.
    My therapist told me the way to achieve true inner peace is to finish what I start. So far today, I have finished two bags of M&Ms and a chocolate cake. I feel better already!

    Our ice trays result in dried up ugliness...
