Yeah I see what you're saying. IMO, however, it's a blurry line between the two. I mean how would you even symbolize water? I mean unless it's an abstract thing, everything else is just water in another form (vapor, clouds, etc.).

EDIT: OP, perhaps your gf can use a watering can and instead of water, you can pour skittles, M&M's, or any other candy you see fit.
