Handmade Salt Pouches for the Bath

Oh! I like this idea. I wonder if they last for more than one shower. Probably not, but seems like you could make them cheap enough to where that wouldn’t matter. Could probably openup the seam and refill them a few times too! I hate to say it…but I would probably make mine out of the “not-so-white-anymore” washcloths I was about to rotate out anyway. So that would be even cheaper. And I already have some coarse sea salt I bough because Alton Brown told me it was an awesome way to make New Potatoes. (it was, but we rarely eat potatoes, so the salt sits in the pantry.)

Why am I so cheap? Either way, I might just try this.

I sort of forgot about him.

by beagoodmom on August 30, 2010

I made the kids go to the library with me afterschool today. The girls were excited. Pookie was not (until he found a comic book to borrow).

Whenwe got home, I had to make dinner (BAGD out doing homework). Geetle sat down to read her new books. Giggles was setting up a tea party. Pookie wanted to go outside to play. I told him he could play in the backyard (which is fenced and causes me 0% worry). he said “No. Can I play in the front yard. Can I drive the Hummer?”

It was such a nice sentence that I said yes. I was a little worried, but figured Geetle would follow him out there and run some security for me. I don’t really worry about him in the front yard (maybe 10%) but the Hummer throws a wrench in it. He gets so excited when he drives the Hummer that he sometimes forgets to come back at the yellow mailbox (our boundary marker, 4 houses down). More importantly…he can’t do Y-turns in the Hummer, so turning around at all is a challenge.

I got wrapped up in making dinner. Geetle got wrapped up in her book and we both sort of forgot about Pookie out front.

Turns out that was OK. After 15 minutes or so…I remembered! I ran to the window to check on him and he was just pulling the Hummer into the drive way. I don’t know how far he went, or how he turned around, but I suspect both were a story in themselves. I went back to cooking and was about to check again 10 minutes later when he suddenly burst in the garage door. He circled thru the kitchen and went right back out. He did that 2-3 more times while I cooked and did some dishes.

He and the Hummer must have been fine out there. That boy sure is growing up.
