Within the week, you will find it where you absentmindedly walked off with it, but you might not want to drink it anymore...

Is it in the cupboard?
I find all sorts of things in there.

I just did this same exact thing with a bottle of Tri-Quench. Bought a new one last week because I lost my old bottle... Then when I go to start taking the iodine, I can't find the new bottle (and I looked everywhere...then blamed the couch for eating my iodine!)!
I gave up searching and asked my Hubby to help me find it...and it only took him a minute to discover I'd set it down on a bookshelf in the living room!
What really gets funny to watch, though, is when I put my glasses down and then can't remember where I put them... I can't see anything in detail enough to find the glasses if they aren't right in front of me...
So I go around the house patting all the surfaces over and over until I find them...LOL!!!
We have to learn to laugh at ourselves...I don't think I could take this craziness otherwise!

Razzle, misplacing glasses is serious business! Means I can't leave until I find them!
I have a VIS - Very Important Solution - to this problem: have a 2nd decent pair in a well-remembered location to use to find the first pair! Works for me!
And btw, I call long-lost food items Biology Experiments...

poppy has quite the biology experiment going on ... hope you find it before it begins to stink!!
Did you put it on the patio?
Robin, my extra pair of glasses is in my car's glove box. I have been known to drive off without my glasses because I can see (almost) fine without them.

When I saw the subject line I was thinking of the Caine Mutiny where the stewards had eaten the rest of the strawberries!
But, yup we do the same thing. Pour a glass of ice water and 5 minutes later I ask Silver, "Hey! Did you drink my water?" "No - I watched you drink it yourself!"

Ha - you have a witness - as long as you ask them quickly, otherwise they could forget what you did...

- Time to send over the memory recall experts?
Close your eyes, quiet yourself, recreate the scene . . . remember what you were wearing . . . where you were, what you were doing just before.
Feel that muscle memory. See the setting . . . notice how the glass looked, how it was placed, exactly how it was sitting . . . did the light shine on it in a certain way?
How did it smell? Can you remember tasting it?
Can you remember drinking any of it? If so , how much?
Do you see yourself in your memory taking that glass somewhere? Can you feel how you held it?
Did you go do something else then? . . .
and on and on. It may be possible to relax enough to recover lost items. Don't try to imagine what might have happened, though. Just relax and maybe it will come to you.
Often, in the shower, doing something totally unrelated will allow a memory to just pop back in.
Or -- if automatic action of drinking and washing the glass was just unremarkable . . . remember the song "Blowin' in the Wind" - the answers, my dear, are blowin' in the wind . . . . -

- Would a count of that kind of glass or mug work? If you know you have a certain number of them, that may be a clue. -
