Here are some tips for saving water during this drought: Set lawn mower blades one notch higher because longer grass means less evaporation. Check to see if your toilets are leaking by putting a few drops of food color in the tank. If the water in the bowl turns color without flushing , you have a leak and it needs to be fixed. Finally, when eating out turn your water glass upside down if you don't want water. This not only saves the water you don't drink, but also the water (and energy) used to wash your used glass.
