Hee hee hee heee....I love the image of sitting in a tub of hot water with floating veggies or such. Perhaps Cheerios! Really wheatgrass is not very strange at all and I have done it enough to really be able to feel a difference. I prefer to do *implants* but since I have a healthy crop right outside the door, its a given I will toss some in the bath tonight. It will not stain the tub or me. I do feel like I am being marinated when I toss in Apple Cider Vinegar. It smells so much like a salad...ggg. The oregano oil has a distinctive smell, not like a pizza. I know it is very healing to inhale it into your lungs so I enjoy the double whammy of soaking and smelling.

As for being weird, it works better if you surround yourself by others like you! The Master Cleanse does seem to press buttons for some, but for the most part, certainly dumping stuff in the tub and sitting in it does not put me in the weirdo range with my friends. They know I love bath salts and that the gallons of Apple Cider Vinegar I buy are for medicinal bathing. I will probably explore more using herbal infusions in the tub but I do not have any malady to treat yet that the other stuff does not take care of. I have used colloidal oatmeal for poison ivy and of course I like clay but it tends to be messier so I leave that for footbaths or for when I am going to spend time in a motel...ggg. You would laugh to see me covered with clay and standing like a gorilla in front of a motel tv waiting for the clay to dry!

I grew up in Ohio. In Cleveland. I worked at Edgewater beach summers and my brother was a lifeguard. I have many fond memories of there although I think where I used to live is a highway now. Cleveland should have a perfect climate for growing wheatgrass. See if you can find some wheatgrass seed...just hard wheat. I buy in bulk from Whole Foods. You can either put it in containers outside or in a small patch. I try not to grow more than I can use since it is better fresh. My little plot is about 3 by 6 feet.



Thank you for your prayers and energy to protect me from the storm! I have never seen a storm be so massive and s-l-o-w like this one that hit Houston. Four to five miles per hour is not fast for a storm. My friend is a shaman/curandero so I asked her to protect the house since if it had come my direction it could have caused damage I would prefer not ever seeing. I, being from Ohio, and most of my adult life, Missouri, I am not used to hurricanes and tropical storms. So far, I have dodged the bullet every time I am happy to say. I plan on escaping all hurricanes this year too!

I do not know how often I will blog past my break. Its been popular and I have enjoyed being a little creative. It will be here though for people to glean info from and I know I wish I had had more easily accessible info so I tried to share with people what I would have liked to have known. I also like to research so this has been a perfect way to channel that. Thank you for coming and supporting my effort!

Especially thank you for your encouragement. Only >>>10<<< more days to go!

I am counting down and already have my oranges ready! I hope your cleanse is going well too!

blessings,
Zoe
