Some people are compulsive shoppers.
Some CRAVE chocolate.
Some are addicted to coffee.
Ok... enough poetry.
I love buying cards. I love sending cards to people (ok, usually just Erik). When I go shopping I can't help but peruse the card aisle. When I see a "perfect" card I can't help but purchase it.
Thankfully they are hard to come by.
Usually.
Then there are those days where you see five or six that would be perfect for your mom, your sister... or just Erik.
Today there were only two perfect ones. Thank goodness!
Erik, your card's in the mail.

Banana Paper
This week I got a parcel in the mail!!! Parcel's are by far my favorite thing. I love getting them! (I've only had two this year... and one was things I had bought and paid for)...
Anyway, my sister Lindsey (who was married in Costa Rica this December), sent me a banana journal from Costa Rica. It is excellent. It is beautiful. I love it. It is 100% not paper!! that is incredible. I can't tell you what the contents are because it's written in Spanish... but I'm assuming banana's are a huge factor. NO PAPER though!!! Banana's are much easier to regrow than trees are.

Soup Sweats
Please say I am not the only person who gets soup sweats. I was just enjoying my wonderful bowl of soup (SUCCESS!!!) and I started pealing off the layers. I never really realize what I am doing until there are no more layers to decently remove. Then I just feel HOT. So hot that I chug three glasses of water and walk around for a minute before sitting down again.
At least the soup was a success.

Of Goat's Milk Soap and White Bean & Rosemary with Garlic & Vegetable Soup
Erik has sensitive skin.
Erik does not use normal soap because normal soap irritates Erik's sensitive skin.
Erik convinced Ashley to buy Goat's Milk Soap because it doesn't irritate Erik's sensitive skin.
Ashley guffawed but relented.
Ashley LOVES her Goat's Milk Soap.
No really. I LOVE my Goat's Milk Soap. It is incredible. It is better than anything else I have ever tried. I come out of the shower and don't even feel the need to put lotion on. That, my friends is a miracle. I could lather myself up forever. Canus Goat's Milk Soap - you should all go out and get some. It comes in four wonderful fragrances:
1. Original Formula (the one I'm currently using ... very pleasant)
2. With Olive and Wheat Protein
3. With Shea Butter
4. Fragrance-free (for those with extra sensitive skin)
White Bean & Rosemary with Garlic & Vegetable Soup
I am in the process of making this soup from a recipe I got from Erik's sister at Christmas time. It was DELICIOUS when she made it, but I'm a little nervous. It's tough to replicate something like that.
My soup is reheating on the oven as we speak (I made it last night, but it always tastes better the next day) It's almost time to go have a little taste test. If all goes well I will post the recipe.
