Breast Wishes

Happy anniversary to me! Two years ago today I had a breast reduction and while the recovery was a tad rocky and the process forced me to take a hard look at how I identify myself, I wouldn't trade the experience--or the results--for anything. A story detailing my surgery and recovery is--hopefully--soon to be published...I will post links when I have them.

There ain't no shame in my game

Tried: Sweet Spot Labs product line

True to my word I tried this line-- the gentle wash, balancing mist, eau de spot and on-the-go wipettes in the citrus galbanum scent. And, since I'm sure ya'll want me to spare you the gory details, I will say just this: Sweet Spot Labs is a fabulous product line. It works. It smells yummy and makes you feel fresh and clean and lovely sans the angry irritated vagina reaction one normally gets from some other well known cleansers. I even received a compliment while using the eau de spot, again I will spare you the details on that-- TMI-- but if that's not a testimony to this product I don't know what is.

Can you just head to your local drugstore and get something similar from Summer's Eve? Absolutely. Call me an intimate grooming snob but, I'm so keen on this product line and its offerings and all of its premium-grade sweetifiers, vitamins, botanicals, and pH balancers that I don't think I'd let anything else come between me and my va-jay-jay.

Home Sweet Home

Ahhh...home. I'm so happy to be back from what could be described as one of the worst vacations ever. Not only did it rain, (like torrential down pour rain), almost everyday, the temp hovered around 55 degrees and I ended up being stuck in a house with 15 other people that I don't have the slightest bit in common with except that I share DNA with their grandson/nephew/cousin.

I was only able to test out one bug repellent for about a half hour the whole vacation--Avon's SKIN SO SOFT BUG GUARD Plus PICARIDIN, which worked amazingly well and smelled beautifully clean, but will most definitely have to test a few times more in an environment more conducive to, I don't know, Bugs, Sun and Fun. I did use a new, fun, mascara while I was away and also tried out some awesome organic bath products by Savor. Reviews and details to follow.

So happy to be back to my routine again.
