life in the time of turbidity.
Because of this, Catherine and I set off in search of some bottled water after dinner tonight. We could probably go a night without drinking it, but brushing teeth is a MUST.
The first store we went to was sold out (good disaster readiness, Vancouver!), but a corner market had a few bottles to sell us.
Cat’s side of the fridge is on the left — she prefers Dasani water.
My side is the right — I am a Fiji girl. Also? A Pom juice girl. And I love the indie milk, too.
I know. Ridiculous.
The Evian in the middle is for our teeth and coffee in the morning — I’d bought it just in case I’d gotten Cat’s preference wrong.
And yes… don’t even ask. They DO taste different.

I’ve done chemical analysis on them. I know what’s different! I saw “turbidity” and just had to comment! What’s going on in Vancouver that bottled water is a necessity now?

Oh, they do. I can’t stand evian.

Serious storm and wind activity created a huge mess of our filtration plants, I believe… I bet you could explain it better than I can.
Read the press release from my other post, and it will all make sense:).

“The very deep did rot, oh Christ
If ever this should be
Yea, slimy things did crawl
Upon the slimy sea.
Water, water, everywhere and how the sea did stink
Water, water everywhere
And not a drop to drink.”
I just composed that for you two.

Which is FUNNY, because those last two lines were some of my brother’s first words. My dad read that stuff to him when he was a baby…

I like all three but if I had to pick one I would go with Evian.

Whatever type of water you prefer, I love the way they add a best before date. Since it has been ‘filtered for a thousand years’; how come it doesn’t last more than a year?
