Bath Time

Hello!  It is nice to have you back again for Toni Taddeo's Tuesday 4.

There is something lovely about a nice hot bath on a  cold autumn night after a busy day isn't there?

Growing up our home had an old claw foot tub and I loved to fill it to the brim and sit there until my toes were like prunes.

Can we discuss the secrets of the bath?

1.Do you take baths or showers?  Is there a reason you prefer one to the other?

I no longer have a tub. I have a walk in shower with a chair so I don't have to stand too long.

Growing up we had a deep claw foot tub that was ideal for soaking but, once I had the opportunity to have a shower I loved it!

2. Once a day shower or bath or do you have a different schedule?

I shower about every other day. Daily if I work hard or if it's a hot summer but otherwise I don't need a daily shower unless I want my skin to fall off. I just don't really sweat.

3. What are your favorite soap and shampoo?

Dr. Bronner's soap and natural Ivory.  Most other soaps and shampoos harm my skin and hair very much.

4.  Back in the day many loved Jean Nate spray after a bath.  My mom enjoyed Avon's Skin so Soft.. what do you like in the way of skin creams, oils or sprays?

I use a natural lotion on my arms and legs.  I use castor oil on my face and hands and feet.  I grew up using olive oil around my eyes and so I have no crows feet or lines so I think it works nicely.

Thanks to everyone who has joined in and if you didn't it's never too late to join in!
