Moss and Sugar Scrubs
Firstly a big thank you for all your get well wishes. My back is feeling so much better. In fact I even took a stroll around the garden. The first in a long time.
I came across one of our raised flower beds that was completely covered in moss. A lot of people around here just hate moss and spend lots of time and money trying to get rid of it. Of course the moss always wins and comes back year after year. I happen to love moss. The different types and colors are just amazing.
It grows on everything. Come summer when the sun stays for longer than 10 minutes it dries up and crumbles away until our next rainy season.
Of course as you would expect not much is blooming, except the Heather. I think and hope that is the only white stuff that we will see on the ground this winter.
I even sat for a while on the front porch. I was well sheltered and the sun was out for a bit. It did seem a bit unreal though sitting on our front porch in February!
Back in the house again I went to work on a new product. Foaming Sugar Scrubs. This one is Pink Grapefruit.
This one is Italian Granita Ice. Loaded with Fair Trade Organic Sugar and infused with soothing Almond Oil. They are wonderful for gently exfoliating while taking a bath. Which is exactly what I did when I went back into the house. One of the benefits of making new products is being able to try them out! If I do say so myself I think we have winner here. The only problem was deciding which one to try first.
Have a great Thursday!

Sorry about your back. Hope you feel better real soon. I love your new products! The sugar scrubs sound delicious! I love moss. I love the softness and colours. In fact, I planted some a few years ago, but it is too hot and dry here, so it didn't take hold.
Mmmm... pink grapefruit! Sounds lovely. Glad you are feeling better. Your garden looks gorgeous, even in the depths of winter!
Your sugar scrubs look so lush. I can almost smell the fruity aromas just by looking at your photos. I rather like moss too. x
