Oils

I've had quite a busy day. It's been on and off rainy so I didn't do any of the things I planned to do outside. I did quite a bit more reading than I planned and it was nice to re-acquaint myself with some basic psychology.

I baked a banana cake and unusually used quite a bit of honey and a dash of fruit juice in the recipe and it's worked well (Jamie Oliver recipe from the web). I've made some delicious veggie soup too. That can be tomorrow's dinner I think.

Getting my essential oils out for some foot nurturing later on. Best be prepared for the onset of sandals weather. I plan to use rosehip oil as a base and then maybe something like grapefruit essential oil as it is cleansing and fresh :-) I'll be walking around with plastic bags on my feet later!

Finally I am listing some more things on ebay which I have stored up for ages. It always takes much longer to list and photograph things than I anticipate. I hope it is worth it. I have a great little top I have been trying to sell for about a month now, plenty of watchers in the past but now none at all. I decided it was because it's an odd looking top so difficult to imagine what it would look like on. It's got lots of separate bits of cloth to it and it takes me a good 10 minutes to work out which way round to put it on. I ended up sticking it on and photographing myself in it (not identifying myself!) Ive definitely not got the body of a clothes model and I had to be very careful it wasn't too revealing (the reason I am getting rid of it in the first place as it's a bit to 'clubby' and thoroughly impractical for me). I am hoping that this effort may do the trick (that or I'll get a warning of ebay and the fashion police). I hope it will go to a better home, if not then it is off to the charity shop :-)
