In Praise of Tap Water )

Personally I prefer our solution: we have a filter on our kitchen tap, and use that water for cooking and drinking. We also keep a bottle of filtered tap water in our fridge for when we want something really cold. Not sure how much the doohickey cost, but it was a DIY from Home Despot or Canadian Tire. And we have to change the filters every few months, but in exchange we get nice, odour-free water, without the bottles.

Yeah, I know. 143 characters. I get verklempft when I try to draw more than two.

Anyway, she's back and she's smokin', and since her latest pix are from Deathly Hallows, they go behind a Deathly Hallows Spoiler cut )

Here's links to two of her non-canon drawings (she does scenes from the books and scenes from fanfiction/thin air), drawn after Half-Blood Prince, both of which became AU after Deathly Hallows came out:
