Saturday Morning

I got this morning off to a running start.  I brushed my teeth in 3/4 cup of water.  This is how I do it:

First I pour the water into a cup.  I used one of my tin reenacting cups out of habit.  Dip your toothbrush into the cup to moisten it.  When using little water I use tooth powder since it does not foam like normal modern toothpastes.  When through brushing I use two small mouthfuls to rinse with and then rinse the toothbrush out in what is left.

I washed up using one wet wipe.  The wet wipe was invented in 1859 by Mr. Wipe...Okay, I am full of it.  I admit I cheated.  The wet wipe was not invented until the late 1970s.  But the purpose of this experiment is not to be totally 19th century but to see how little water I can comfortably get away with.

I had to do some work out in the garage so I drank 8 ounces of water plus ice (am I supposed to count the ice too?)  Note:  The ice had melted when I drank it.

We were on the go so we grabbed breakfast at Sonic, so no breakfast dishes or prep.  I will factor this into my end totals.  I ordered water instead of another, high sugar and calorie drink.  I am still working on it so when I am done I will figure out how much that was and add it to the total.

More later...
