i can attribute my hydration to straws.
i love the fun-factor involved in drinking water through a straw.
and, its really nice that they're usually neon.
i buy them by the hundreds at the dollar store,
and they have literally inspired me to drink more water.
definitely.
i used to think that my addiction to using straws was purely because they were bright and beautiful.....
but when i recently drank a glass of water withOUT a straw and spilled on myself 3 times,
i realized that there's also the clean-factor.
i stay more dry when there's a straw.

(my favorite glass!)
i recently realized that a major part of experiencing the aura of the pink house is the scattering of empty glasses with bright straws in them all over the house. sometimes there are 3 or 4 by the sink. and unfortunately there's no getting around it: they're always mine. :) so i've decided to document and collect them. this is my first set. it has actually become really fun---- sometimes i spend 5 minutes just photographing a glass in the middle of the day.
more to come!
