Here we grow again...



I have replanted, in many ways. We left behind a beautiful "yarden" in FL where around this time the aphids and ladybugs should be in full swarm. Well I have replanted our garden, in a way. We don't have a yard but we do have patios that even have small beds around the walls and in between the cement slabs. So a few weeks ago I got to planting and seeding every available space that I had, and I am now proud to say that everyone is sprouting and growing well. Oh and I am not done yet. I have wall space that I want to put window boxes up on for shallow rooted plants like lettuce or herbs. It is very exciting to see what is sprouting up next, yesterday it was corn, today it is the "Bolivian fat ass" pepper seeds a friend gave us. That is just one of our patios there are still two more to plant and plan. Just think, no yard but fresh veggies as the seasons go, pretty good trade off for me, I never did like mowing the lawn.

Childlike

Well during tonight's bedtime rituals I was struck with a thought, baths for children are good clean fun. From fruit colored, and scented bath wash to toys designed just for the bath, kids have it made. We value this time to clean away the days exploration in the sand box as well as fun water play with rubber duckies.
As adults we use this time to decompress or pamper ourselves. Yet many of us feel guilty when we want to buy our own "bath toys", but I say we deserve a little bath time fun. Use it to listen to music you haven't in a while, a book you are enjoying, or just breath deep in the lovely scents of a lifetime ritual.... The Bath.

At long last


Ritual Bath is settled! We have finally unpacked and set up most of our things in beautiful Southern California! I am feeling the creative muse whispering in my ear and I have many plans for the coming months, one of which is my blog space. I will be posting more often now and hope all you bathers keep me to it. I have some new art ideas as well as some bath products or improvements on my kits. So stay tuned and if the bath water gets cold drop me a line and I will warm it up.

Loves,
