Here's what Brown did for me!

I adore my UPS man!  Three (yes, count em) boxes came this afternoon.  I don’t get to see my UPS guy very often since I closed my gallery so now it is a real treat to see Mr Brown lookin all strong and efficient!

I’ve taken special interest in seeing exactly how fast I can blow through my Virginia State Tax return.  I’m pretty good at this, believe me!

The first box was from QVC (don’t judge me.)  I took advantage of a “today’s special value” offer on Philosophy products.  Cause I’m a philosophy girl and I love everything they make that I’ve ever tried!  Which is why I am 39 1/2 but can pass for not a day over 39 1/4!  *giggle!*

The second box was full of thirty pounds of white powder, some of which had leaked and it looked like the plastic bags inside were broken.  Turns out it is three bags and they aren’t actually broken, though they are a royal white powdery mess.  One has sodium bicarbonate, the other corn starch and the third bag is ten pounds of citric acid.  Now if I were to dump all that in a bathtub of water right now, it would probably blow the bathroom off my house.  And while I ponder the various delightful aspects of that idea, I had to remind myself of why such an obscenely heavy box ever made it to my studio to begin with.  Because I’ve paid $2 for a tiny little container of citric acid and by comparison this huge box was a steal.  So I’ve got enough “spa soak” for all of Vox to have delightful fizzy baths every day for a week!  Oy!

The final box included thirty pounds of soap.  Yeah!  They come in gigantic bars that weigh five pounds each.  I recently had my soap excepted into a gallery in Harrisonburg so now I have the supplies to get into soap making again.  Yay!  A while back my house was all about chocolate.  Right now it looks like it’s going to be all about soap.  There isn’t much difference in working with chocolate and soap actually, except for how often I lick my fingers. 

Thank you Mr. Brown, you made my day!
