“For whatever we lose (like a you or a me), It's always our self we find in the sea.” ― E.E. Cummings

Hi Internet!
It's certainly been a while. Colleges are swimming in want of essays and applications, and I'm drowning in their want right now. So..going along with this water theme, how about some Detox water recipes? I originally had this idea with inspiration from Bloglaties (she's awesome, check her out.) Since I saw her post, I've been obsessed with putting tons and tons of different things in my water bottle. You guys can put these things in your water (perferrably in a filter or something similar, but do what you want) a few hours before drinking, and then just refill all day. I get three to four water refills out of one set of ingredients. I would recommend throwing out the fruit and veggies after a day of use, because at that point the stuff is just waterlogged and gross.

Take my (easily personalizable) ingredient lists and make some water magic!
Use ingredients and slice into thin pieces.
Place in water bottle.
Shake before consumption.
(I have a 32 oz Nalgene Bottle that I use. Customize to your liking)
