starting the day with a gorgeous carafe of lemon water is beginning to make me feel just a little cleaner inside. tracy and lisa were talking about it a couple of weeks ago in the studio. and i thought it was just simple enough for me to add to my routine. so i slice a lemon in my favorite 1/2 litre carafe and fill it with water before i head up to bed, cover it with a saucer and leave it in the fridge overnight. and in the morning it's a clean and slightly tangy start to the day. i refill it and sip away throughout the day using the same lemon. and since i'm drawn as surely to the beauty of the glass and the yellow circles and the little opaque floaty pieces, it keeps me coming back. as always, the visual is my strongest draw, but it's good on so many other levels too!!

I've read that if you drink a cup of hot water with lemon in it first thing in the morning that it will facilitate the cleansing of your intestinal tract! I knew a girl who swore by this?
ReplyDeleteI do love the pretty look of the bright colored lemons floating in the crystal clear water.
have you tried adding some fresh ginger? that's my favourite. hot or cold. with or without some honey. keeps my immune system up, too!
ReplyDeletei don't know if i can heat it up.....takes to long to drink then, but adding some ginger is a great plan. i'm doing that tonight.
ReplyDeletethanks!!!
I think it's a nice idea that a slice of lemon on water gives us some good feeling. And actually it works. I have forgetten it for long time. Thank you for reminder.
ReplyDeleteI love lemon water. The pictures are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the reminder and like you suggest prepare it the evening prior.
