Good Morning Girls..
We have a lovely morning here in Eastern Canada.. The sun is shining and the snow is melting. The bank of snow in front of our family room window is quickly reducing.
I was telling Terry last night that I thought perhaps I was suffering from cabin fever.... He thought that I meant I needed to get out of the house. I explained that it was not that but I am tired of snow...
Although, this year I have been striving to be happy with the season and enjoy it all.
Life is SWEET.... eh?
We need to be so thankful for each breath and for our daily blessings.
Yesterday I watched a video of 6 minutes over in Japan as water came flooding from a trickle to a flood..
Those dear people need our prayers as our hearts go out to them in this time of disaster
.
This morning with the sun shining and the smell of coffee brewing over on the counter I NEED to be THANKFUL for such sweet everyday blessings.
What is a bit of snow laying around when I am have the blessings of good health and peace and my house is not drifting down a street of water..

Thank you, Lord....
I just needed to say that...
I made something yesterday that I thought you girls might enjoy.
It is a Lavender Salt Scrub to put beside your kitchen sink...
I thought you might like the recipe for it.
Gardening season is coming and this would be so nice to use. Although, it is so lovely on your hands that you will want to use it all the time..
Here is the recipe..
LAVENDER SALT SCRUB FOR YOUR HANDS
1/2 cup of seasalt
1/3 cup almond oil or olive oil (I prefer almond oil)
1 teaspoon of liquid Vit. E
1 teaspoon aloe vera gel (opt.)
1 tablespoon of dried lavender blossoms
15 drops of lavender oil ( more or less)
In a small GLASS bowl mix everything except the salt. When well blended add the salt and stir. Cover and sit overnite..
Next day place in a pretty covered GLASS dish by your kitchen sink.. Use a couple of times a day..
If you have a cut it might sting...
*You may also add a bit of clear liquid hand soap to the mixture.
* If you do not like lavender just leave out the blossoms and change the oil to perhaps Ginger or Rosemary and add a bit of dried chopped Rosemary to the blend....
*Also, you can place the mixture in a lovely little bottle and add a tag in your gift pantry as a gift.
ENJOY...
Thank you so much for dropping by on this Spring morning.
I enjoy so much hearing from you.
Several girls have let me know that they were trying the Cinnamon Raisin Bread Recipe.
Thank you...
Have a wonderful week...
Lord Bless....
