H2O

hose water

I won’t deny that sometimes I have the sense of humor of a five year old.  I thought this “Hose Water” water bottle was extremely funny, both for the way it gently pokes fun at more expensive bottled water, and the fact that when I was a kid, and a thirsty kid at that, refreshment was as close the nearest outdoor spigot.

The best thing about this bottle is that part of the proceeds go towards helping provide clean water to families in India, where the lack of clean water is nothing to joke about. 

I found my bottle here:

  6. You had a hose? :) When I was a kid we drank out of the creek with a cupped hand.
    That is a great cause for a cute bottle of water. B

  11. I must share your sense of humor because this picture delighted. Like you, I remember when hoses served as excellent water fountains, even if they were lying on the ground before the water was needed.
