The grapevines that I had pulled in the beginning of sumer and which I had made in to a pile of wreathes which my cucumbers could grown upon are naked now as I have pulled the last of my cucumber vine art, they are free and still quite lovely. Each one having its own character and size.
I have a thing about grapevines, you see. And to add to that, I always seem to live near them, close enough where I can go a ways and pull them to my hearts content and allow myself an indulgence and experience the thrill that makes me go beyond my threshold of fear and pain.
Yea I am a gnarly bitch, I will tell you that.
Last night it rained and they are moist enough to re-mold and make what ever they want to become this year. I am so blessed like that. I enter This Season (Autumn) with eyes wide open and ready for vibrant and energized time of it.
Om Shakti Om~
I call upon the creative forces within to emerge and flourish in our lives. That we may present beautiful things with our hands and say beautiful words to each other.
Om Shrim Sri Lakshmi Om Namaha
Happy Autumn Equinox
September 23, 2010
It is always all about what I am making this week. My ideas are many and patience always tested as I like to have things right now.
I loved this clove soap that I had once made with wild sweet orange from Dominican Republic. My beautiful Tonie loves it. She said it was delightful.
It is something I have been craving since she told me this.
The roughness of the rhassoul clay I had added made it gritty yet gentle. The freshness of the orange and depth of clove. So rejuvinatingly spectacular!
Rhassoul Clove and Clay Soap is on the list.
The Rustic Hazelnut Honey Soap is turning out to be something nice I must say, I hope you get to try some. It is sharp and has a smoky note, but don't ask me to analyze the flavor of the scent. I am a simple woman. You should tell me what it reminds you of.
But lets talk about distiled lime oil. I love it. Dare I make a soap with it? Dare I mix it with that cacao absolute I just got?
How about ylang ylang with neroli in soap with one drop cinnamon co2? Sigh!:)
I am very blessed this day to have such a rich life filled with creativity and love.
Thank You~
