Drink more water!

We hear all the time we should drink more water. My older kids said their dad buys a big tank of water and that makes it accessible. I don't see myself doing that, but I did find one thing that worked this summer. In the morning I would fill a pitcher with water and ice, and then add slices of lemon or cucumber and place it on the table. It was usually gone by mid-morning.

Also since the last few packages of carrots and the cucumber I have bought have gone bad. I have decided to take the few minutes to actually get them ready to eat. I peeled the skin (letting Liam "help" with the peeler) and then sliced them up into dip-able and easily eatable pieces. We'll see if they go faster this time.
