Good Stuff

I was just thinking about some things I‘ve been enjoying lately and decided to share.

First is Booth’s hand cream, now available at Walmart (previously had to hunt it down at the health food store). If your skin is as horribly winter-ravaged and dry and cracked as mine, you will cry tears of joy when you put this stuff on your hands, elbows and feet. But here’s a tip—it absorbs better into damp skin, so I rinse, pat dry, and moisturize. Ahhhh! And it smells good— light honey almond scent.

Online, I googled Natalie Merchant just to see what she is up to (we were friends back in the 80’s, you know). I felt like a slacker fan when I read that she had a baby girl in 2003. How cool for her. On another note, her website is really beautiful and you should look at it.

Another site I was reading was kind of irreverent but really super funny. It’s making fun of baby names and I LOVE IT! After having my first baby in Utah, where baby naming is especially horrific, I had to laugh hard at this commentary.

Our bed. It’s a great bed. When I sleep elsewhere, I realize what a great bed we have. It’s a King Stearns & Foster double pillow top on a log frame made by my husband. I highly recommend the mattress. With 500TC all cotton sheets.

Dole Whole Fruit Bars. Delicious. Nutritious. A decent substitute for eegee's way up here in Montana, even when it's snowing.
