a new way to enjoy drinking water ...

recently one of my co-workers, hazel-eyes, turned me on to a new way to drink water. it's actually surprising how many people do not drink water simply because they don't like it or it tastes bland. sure you can add lemon and give it a little bit of a tang, but not everyone likes that flavoring. however, during a conversation she was talking about beyonce and how the super star hates water and how she dresses it up. at first, what she told me sounded a little strange and i wrinkled my nose at it, however, the following day she brought in the ingredients and i was blown away by the crisp, refreshing flavor.

it's very simple ... in addition to adding lemon slices to your water, you also drop in several slices of cucumber. some of you may balk at this while others may not, but i am telling you, the taste is absolutely fantastic! it's such a light flavor and is quite refreshing and for those who don't enjoy drinking water because it is bland will enjoy the subtle flavoring of the cucumber. this is certainly my water of choice now when having dinner guests.

i recommend trying this. you will not be disappointed. well, unless you're deathly allergic to cucumber in which case:

let's all get healthier together! drink more water! enjoy!

oh, and if you don't believe me, check out the recipe for yourself.

I have cucumber water whenever I go to Robert Andrews to get a facial...you may be asking yourself "Who is Robert Andrews, and why is he giving you a facial"...it's not what you think.

Anyway, I digress. Cucumber water is super refreshing, but I like just the plain ol' fashioned Fiji Water!! (just like our girl Sarah Silverman) Woot!!

I loooove cucumber in my water, although I'm lucky if I can even get a lemon added.

I've never thought about adding cucumber to my water. I'm going to have to try that.

That is so cool! I am going to try that. I am pregnant, so no booze for me *one tear* and I don't and have never drank pop, so I am excited to try this new twist on water :)

Perineoplasty (or Perineorrhaphy) has an objective of making this area look normal by cutting
out excess skin and flaccid skin tags. I would also like to dismiss the earlier notion that developing of genital skin
tags should not be misunderstood towards developing any sexually transmitted diseases.

The brown-slatted background in the image above really isn't part of the technique I was trying to demonstrate here.
