sometimes water can contain rust, cholorine , or well water sometimes isn’t 100 percent safe depending once again location. (you can actually buy testing strips to test your water to see about investing in fliters they normally can be found in the filter isle and cost around 5 dollars)

which is why most people will buy filters or use bottle though the bonus it helps your children build up a immune system as well.

But I do give tap water to the children in my care…muahahahahahahahahaha!!!

I admit I drink bottled water and I’m trying to think of an alternative. I do recycle the bottles, but have no control over where they end up eventually. The problem is that I do not like the taste of my tap water. I still drink tap water at my parents’ house, but can’t do it where I live. It’s fine for cooking though. I don’t want to become the crazy person using bottled water to cook.

A pet peeve of mine is when people do not drink the entire bottle and when you go visit them they have 20 bottles they’ve started. I mean, really? How hard is it to stick to a bottle and finish it?

My husband (who has a serious medical condition) and I invested in a reverse osmosis water filtration system, his doctor’s recommendation. I’m sure it’s better than what’s coming out of our tap. Heath benefits aside, it just tastes better!

I’m a simple girl. I want what tastes good!

I moved…Now we have “city water” where its from a treatment plant or something. Its all chlorine-y and filled with air bubbles. I do have one of those filter thingies on my water…just so I can get rid of the chlorine taste. I am in the most heavily chlorinated county in the state, haha…When I run the shower, it smells like a public pool! People will color their hair and a week later its back to normal!! They blamed the salon, but no, it’s your water, dear!

Oh well…I do have reuseable water bottles…buuuut…they get lost or left under the seats of the car periodically. Anywho…I used to love tap water…but this stuff up here is like sucking up at the side of a pool.

The number of people who fear their own tap water is astonishing. The bottles make me wretch with all the waste, not to mention the people who won’t recycle them even when there’s a container provided for that purpose.

We have always been tap water people with reusable bottles. And sometimes, we can even go whole days where we only hydrate ourselves at meals. Shocking, isn’t it??

We’re also strict reusable water-bottle users now. No purchasing of plastic single-serve bottles. I get so puzzled when I see people with cases of bottles in their kitchen. Who wants the hassle? And the waste?
