The final Persephenie product I'm reviewing is the one I was most excited to try. If I had to choose, it's also probably my favorite of the three, but I'm sure I've made it painfully obvious in the past that I'm a sucker for a hot bath. Ingredients (provided at persephenie.com)- "Sodium bicarbonate, Sea Salt, Citric Acid, Coconut Oil (Cocus nucifera), Certified Organic Cocoa Butter (Theobroma cacao), Denditric Salt, and a combination of botanical essential oils and absolutes." The preliminary report that I created in the

Monday night, I made the dreamiest body scrub using a modified version of Adrianna's recipe over at A Cozy Kitchen. It smells delicious (actually, it smells a lot like my current deodorant + some coconut), and it's just what my dry, itchy skin needed. My knees, elbows, and feet have never felt better! I knew this scrub and I were meant to be the moment I saw the word grapefruit. My sweet neighbors across the street have given us permission to take advantage of their grapefruit...

Here lately, Lake Charles has been a chilly, rainy, ridiculous mess. Cold weather without snow really brings me down, so here's how I've been coping: Having several cups of warm tea throughout the day, like the delicious Earl Grey that I purchased yesterday. Relaxing in bathtubs filled with hot water and either homemade bath soak or essence soak. Wearing Kirby's warm and comfy beagle sweatshirt. Fortunately, it's also pretty cute. How do you deal with cold...

Last night I took the most wonderful bath imaginable. Here are the products that made it possible: DayNa Decker Botanika Essence Soak in Ella-I got a free bottle of Essence Soak in the mail recently for the purpose of trying and then reviewing, and I can't even begin to describe how great this stuff smells. It isn't fleeting, either. It's a wonderful, rich, floral, intoxicating, long-lasting scent. I sprinkled about two and a half hands full of this soak into the tub just before getting in. It was probably my favorite part. It makes a fun crackling noise as it hits...

Panic Attacks, anyone?

Link to Panic Attacks, anyone?

Maybe it's only because I'm on my period, but I've felt a very real sense of dread all day long.  I drank two cups of coffee, and they successfully made me feel much worse.  I keep thinking about all the bad things that may or may not happen and how little control I have over most things, and I feel like I may be going crazy. I've always been a worrier,  but this is a little ridiculous. I know that it's likely a culmination of the stress I feel concerning moving out of the state and my lack of direction...
