I have always had a favorite water bottle and his name is Mr. Klean Kanteen. But step aside Klean because you may have been replaced. Okay maybe not replaced, but you will now have to share your coveted position in my cupboard. Make room for the sleek and ingenious Intak by Thermos.

Carrie tagged me today and wants to know what my water glass or mug looks like. Well, a just discussed how much I love my Klean Kanteen but I actually use another another mug more often, although it is still stainless steel. It is from Enviro Products.
