It’s amazing where your sense of smell can take you. One whiff of someone’s perfume can bring to mind a special friend who used to wear the same fragrance. The smell of cookies baking will take you back to when you were grade-school age sitting in your grandmother’s kitchen. Or the fragrance of fresh flowers can cause you to remember the first bouquet delivered to your door.

Taking care of ourselves doesn’t have to be expensive or time consuming. I love this recipe for that “pick me up” that many of us need.

I also think it’s kind of fun to smear food all over my face.

Hey, here’s a twisted idea. If your kids really are dying to get you in a dunk tank. Mix up a bunch of this and put it in the pie tins for them to throw at you. You’ll have a blast and rejuvenate your skin at the same time!

Taking Time for Mom

Do you have something you guard? Something, that you just can not let anyone infringe on. Think about it for a moment. What is that one thing?

I had one friend who always had a snack every afternoon at exactly the same time, and would not let her children have one. Her children would stand around her. “Oh mom.” they would whine. “Can’t we have just one bite?”

“No way!” This mom replied. Eventually the children stopped asking. Mom guarded her snack.

I had another friend who guarded her prayer time equally as diligently. Her children knew, every morning, mom would pray for two hours. You do not interrupt mom or you will suffer the wrath of a much greater power than she. One of her son’s was quoted as saying, “If mom doesn’t have two hours to pray, it is a rotten day.”
