Because your mother knows what's best for you, and the planet!


imageHello honey, how are you? Your father is on his way over to your house dear to get rid of the bottled water in your fridge. He’s a little grumpy about it because I made him miss his favorite show to do it! I told him that’s what the PVC is for.


Yes, I realize I’m the one who bought the bottled water in the first place but now I know better. Last night I managed to find the TV remote before your father did and we watched something other than Storage Wars. It was a program about how there are no regulations for bottled water so we don’t know exactly what we are buying. They said a lot of bottled water starts out as tap water which is then sold back to us at a much higher price! And instead of being recycled, people throw millions of plastic water bottles out each day. What a waste! We are going back to the tap, I told your father, who thought I was referring to beer and then asked me to get him one.


Remember when you were little dear and when you wanted a drink you simply got it from the kitchen tap? Or when we were out and you needed a drink you simply looked for a water fountain? When did our lives become so busy that we don’t have the time to fill a reusable water bottle on our way out the door? It seems your father’s life is so busy he doesn’t have time to pick his underwear up off the floor!


I have to go now dear, Dancing with the Stars is about to begin. I love you and don’t forget to drink lots of water. Tap water of course!
