Hey, that's not too bad!
I won't make them for a while though...I buy that Smuckers natural peanut butter, mainly just for Joshua...it's just so expensive and he loves it so much!
Hey, get this...we keep geting these notices in the mail saying our water failed inspection! Every few days we get these notices!
They say it's not dangerous, but that over time it might cause cancer, liver and kidney problems, central nervous system problems and not to mention, the unmentionable stomach ailments.
Well, we've been getting them for what I would consider "over time" and I have started buying our water and ice. Sigh...
The water in our tub was positively brown...my clothes are starting to look dingy. My white shower curtain looks like it's tea stained.
Yep, that's what I used. I've been lucky enough to catch sales, so it hasn't been bad at all price wise. And it's wonderful...sometimes if I'm really wanting an easy snack, I'll take a teaspoonful and just eat it very slowly. *drool*
Scary stuff about your water! Mine isn't the greatest (it kinda tastes moldy, I swear!), but at least it's safe...
We were spoiled growing up, though. They have a well with really good water. The downside is...when we've had droughts, the water dries up or is reduced to a trickle. Town water doesn't have that problem.
If you're not on a well you ought to make some noise to your water authority. Ask 'em what the heck you're paying for if they can't get the water clean.
Or at least find out why. An occasional "boil water advisory" is one thing, especially if you're either had a lot of rain or not enough. But I wouldn't sit still for notices like that over a long duration.
HOWEVER, you may also want to verify that they are official "notices" and not an advertisement for someone trying to sell you a water purification system. We gave in and let a company come do their "45-minute-presentation" (which turned out to be almost two hours). Then he was offended when we didn't sign on the line right there to buy a $5,000 water filter.
Are they coming from your town government, or some company trying to sell you water filtering equipment?
