Now, please don't misunderstand what I am about to say. I love this water bottle and have received many compliments on it. In fact, two days ago I noticed that my friend Patrick had the same exact one and then we discussed how great it was for a bit. Our friend Heather, who had just given birth to a ten pound baby boy earlier that day even joined in the praise-filled conversation. But sadly, despite a healthy and rewarding relationship with my Klean Kanteen, I still longed for a more feminine, whimsical looking eco-friendly water bottle.

Please bear in mind that this picture in no way, shape or form does justice to my new water bottle. My new water bottle is exquisite with fine detailing.
