SUBJECT: Dawn diswashing liquid
I refilled my liquid dish soap container this evening.
The excitement never stops around here.

SUBJECT: Shower gel
I was first introduced to this shower gel back in October of 1998. HH, DramaQueen (who turned one year old while we were overseas) and I visited my old college roommate, Betty and her husband, at their home in London, UK. This stuff smells awesome. I brought home a number of bottles with me when we returned to the States. In 2006, Betty was in California for the summer and I flew out to see her. She knew how much I loved this stuff and presented me with 10 containers of it. I’ve used it sparingly over the years. This is all that I have left. I could order it over the internet, but the shipping costs are atrocious. I can buy the product for $3.02 and pay $10.86 to ship it. Not! One day I’m going to say “to heck with it” and buy it anyway.
