Home-Made Body Butter



I am a natural junkie, not yet but I think I'm getting there. There's a good side to it and it's mixing up things. I made this body butter in minutes, without any forethought and I think it's pretty good.

What's in it?

Shea butter
Aloe Vera
Avocado Butter
Glycerine
Olive oil
Coconut Oil
Essential Oils - Rosemary, Lavender, Chamomile, Rose, Neroli

How?

I just mixed it all up in a plastic container, gave a good whip around.
10 drops each of the essential oils and voila!

Why?

It is not greasy and it is absorbed well by the skin while giving it an amazing sparkle.
Especially good for winter and dry skin.

Because I'm not an Insect



I decided to take up knitting. My sister still thinks it's for old women. However I have seen a lot of young 'uns knitting it up, sometimes in public transportation which I think is really cool. It's also not a bad thing to add to one's skill-set, the brain can handle it.
Anyhoo, it's been relaxing and interesting, and hopefully, by next winter, I would be rocking my own handmade scarf :)
