I Can't Believe It!

I just finished blogging on bottled water and how I chose Fiji and look what I found right afterward!

Bottled Water Ad Slams Cleveland, Joke May Be On Them
Ad Puts Cleveland On Defensive Over Water

CLEVELAND -- An advertisement slams Cleveland, but the joke may be on a bottled water company instead.
The battle of the bottled water puts water from Fiji vs. Lake Erie.
The ads for Fiji Water sold around the world proclaim that "The label says Fiji because it's not bottled in Cleveland."
The back of the bottle contains information about trade winds purifying island water -- water not affected by acid rain and other pollutants.
NewsChannel5 learned the ad was tough to swallow for the Cleveland Water Department, which did its own water analysis.
Officials said their test results showed Cleveland's treated drinking water is better quality than Fiji Water. They said Fiji Water had the highest levels of arsenic and other contaminants.
NewsChannel5 held a blind taste test.
"I never had Fiji Water. I thought Cleveland was much more refreshing," one tennis player said.
The taste testers preferred Cleveland water.
"Just not as good as I thought it would be and not worth the price," one man said.
Fiji president Edward Cochran said his company's tests have found much lower levels of arsenic in Fiji Water than Cleveland did. He questions the validity of the city's study, saying it was not an independent test.

Just can't trust anybody!LOL.

Which One?

I am standing in a gas station mini-mart about 1:00 am after helping a friend out with his project, dieing of thirst, in front of the bottled water. After all the research I've done, and all the articles on bottled water I've read,(see article on http://www.productsandservicesultd.com ) I don't know which one to choose as the healthiest choice. I don't trust any of them! Now I know some of them are just glorified tap water, some can say they are 'spring water' if they come from a manmade hole in the ground (one near a dumpsite), and the reverse osmosis ones that have been stripped of all the good stuff along with the bad. Now I drink a lot of water and unfortunately, I'm not always home where I have access to what I know is good, filtered water. (See the 'e-spring' at http://www.lbeamish.qhealthbeauty.com ) I can understand why consumer's are clammoring for consumer labels on the bottles, and why the International Bottled Water Association is fighting it so hard! What one would I choose if I really knew what I was doing?

I finally ended up with a bottle of 'Fiji-Natural Artisian Water'. It wasn't that I think it's the best. I just know what the others are. Are these the same Artisian's that used to make Olympia Beer?
I figured good for me or not, it took me on a little vacation in my mind to the Fiji Islands. That was more than the others had to offer.

The Small Things In Life


It's amazing sometimes how the smallest of things in life can make someone so happy. I am no different than anyone else. I appreciate a good deal. I don't have money to burn.

My products on this website are all ordered and delivered right to my door. It takes a little planning, but I love it! Unfortunately planning ahead is not one of my better attributes, so sometimes I run out of a product and have to buy something similar off the store shelves. (If I would get these things into 'Ditto Delivery' they would show up automatically, about the time I'm running out, but haven't done that with everything yet). And so it went with my dishwasher soap.

I grew up in a time when you had to practically wash the dishes by hand before you put them in the dishwasher, so I'm still pretty much that way. (Old habits die hard). I bought this popular brand dishwasher soap to just hold me until I ordered my Dish Drops. Naturally, once I bought it, I was going to use the whole box. Not only did I have to use more per load (Dish Drops is highly concentrated, so you only use a TBLS per wash), but the dishes came out terrible! There was this awful film over everything so bad, I didn't even want to drink out of them, and I knew they were 'clean'!

I got my new box of Dish Drops and this morning at 5:00 a.m. I am unloading the dishwasher. I was just ecstatic at how clean and clear my wine glasses were! (The most important of all the dishes I have, of course). Sometimes I have to even remind myself of how good these products really are!

Today's "launch" day!

Well, this is it! I finally finished enough to feel good about launching my new website:
http://www.productsandservicesultd.com Man, do I ever HATE the learning curve! I still don't know enough and obviously will have to make changes to the site as I go, but I just couldn't take any more! My brains are scrammbled with all there is to learn out there about everything! If you visit, please feel free to give any constructive criticism or help. I am open to suggestions. Any feedback really would be good. Unlike serving someone face to face, it's a little lonely out here in cyberspace.
