How neat i will have to jot that recipe down! Blessings, Karen
KKJD1- I'm getting the ingredients for mine today.
Wow! That title grabbed me! And the recipe seems like a wonderful one. I think I have most of the ingredients and might just give it a try myself! Thanks!
Now that's taking chocolate to an extreme! We sometimes give framed groupings of family photos of a special event or place. Kind of like giving a memory.
Pat- I'm glad the title grabbed your attention. Let me know how you like the bath salts.
Joanne- I like the photo idea!!
I love this: but i think I would end up eating the bath water.
Lorri- I think it would smell wonderful. Yummy!
Yes, I'll take two, please! ;)
I made frames one year for pictures of Bob and I. It was taken just beofre our 50th. anniversary, I have bought inexpensive bath towels and appliqued things on them, added lace on girls ect. and this year am making soft fluffy pillow for grandkids. Your chocolate bath sounds like something our youngest daughter might try drinking.
Interesting idea. I do have a mocha candle I purchased recently burning as I write--and I love the smell. Actually, I bought about 15 of them--they were on sell for 99 cents. I could burn a few of those--except I don't take baths anymore--only showers. Our house came with a big double jetted tub which, because of our bad water pressure--would take about two days to fill. Therefore, the water would be cold. It looks good though--when I vacume the dust out, that is.
Janna- Sounds to me, you like cocoa.
Lea- Your gifts, I know, are made with loving hands.
Linda- That's too bad about your wonderful tub.
Lol, I would end up lying in the bath and drinking it.
