online crosswords not as potent as real thing, says girl

Velveteen, I have started making my own perfume! It's fun, I use rosewater as a base and then add clary sage essential oil. It smells wonderful. I'm going to look up recipes on the net and see if I can get more information. I have this old Aveda book (before they were bought by Estee Lauder) and it has all these recommendations about holistic body care. Some of it is kooky, but some of it is really cool. The nice thing is that clary sage is supposed to help with calming and clearing the mind. I don't know, even if it is hokum, it's still a nice thought.

I guess I am kind of preoccupied lately because of some family issues that have arisen, so sorry if I've missed some e-mails and been generally inattentive. Everyone, please be sure to eat lots of green leafy vegetables. Kale. I have an excellent recipe for kale and currants. Also orange vegetables, carrots and sweet potatoes. Roast them, they taste amazing. And drink lots of water.

Love, K
