Just a Tiny Bit
Here's a question for you! How does one write about the Things I get to do today when there are so many delicious activities lined up waiting? Shall I wrap presents and put chicken feathers in the bows? Shall I make Rosemary Olive Oil for gifts? Shall I create a wowy-zinger salt scrub with the help of my Giant Sequoia tree?
Shall I create seed packets for sharing from those Honeymooning Lettuce plants left alone just long enough in the garden last fall? Shall I create fun and interesting labels for the salt scrub?
OR shall I go visit my chickens? Shall I turn them out into the yard since it's not pouring rain for the first time in 48 hours? Shall I enclose the coop with protection against the elements to make it more cozy for featherless hens?
OR perhaps I'll jot you all this brief note, be grateful that I have eyes that see and fingers that move to do my bidding, and go to bed early. It would be easy to go circular, just a tiny bit.

ooohh salt scrub tutorial please!! we fell in love with the giant sequoias after a visit to Sequoia National Park a few years ago. I could sit there for hours...
ReplyDeleteAh, Sweetie, we have a magnificent 30-year-old Sequoia in our back yard! I snipped a few greens from the tree, buzzed them in the blender with tea tree oil, scotch pine oil and a bit of water. This "sauce" was then added to a big bowl of regular salt and blended well. It is wildly fragrant and a rich shade of green that is beyond refreshing when used in the shower. Happy Holidays to you.
