So the soap I was dying for was Lavender Vanilla. I immediately zoned in straight to it, the cute sales girl was like "Try the Jasmine!" I did and it was too flowery, not vanilla-y enough. I'm a little obsessed with vanilla - it smells like Rice Krispy Treats, I mean. In high school I had "vanilla musk" perfume, which all the boys lurved. It was more than I'd like to spend on hand soap - but on the other it, 12 oz is the same as my contact solution and costs less. I can't stop sniffing my hands.

Next time I think I'll get this. It's made by Jews!

(I find that slightly, er, weird.)

You're not the only one that finds "Hills of Galilee" soap to be slightly, er, weird. Vanilla is gooooooooooooooooooooooooood, though.

I think they've been making skin care stuff for over 2000 years (if I'm remembering my Jesuit eduction right)

So you're into girly things like silly soap after all? That doesn't really fit with my ultra-rational image of you.

And Sophie? Really?

Ancient English Secret (well now they're global) for cute boi-luring smell-yummy girly stuff...
Try the Karma, it's vanilly, tangeriney, and patchouli in a special non-too-hippy kinda way and the products themselves are so pure you can eat 'em if you so desire...
When my last delivery of soap, bath fizzies and perfume arrived I caught the UPS girl furiously snorting at the parcel while waiting for me to answer the door, now that says quality....
Music Sounds Better...That track is always going to remind me of Chicago in the Summer of 1999...
Chicago kicks this town's booty, far superior house music, friendlier peeps, better buildings, and the lunatics are far more festive, and http://www.ragstock.com which eats "red light" for breakfast...but hey, it's kinda hard to argue with the salmon, hydroponics and shrooms and scenery out here I guess...

I make my own soap, and I just made a bash of Lavender Vanilla that I gave away to several friends who had their birthdays last week...I don't like it myself at all, as I don't like either lavender nor vanilla, but it IS a very popular soap :)
