Do you love chocolate????


If you're anything like me then you love chocolate. I absolutely have to have a secret stash of it in my house. I basically think and dream in chocolate, it's an obsession really. Now, I can smell like chocolate any time I want to!

How you might ask? Well, I've got a great new moisturizer from Bidwell Botanicals called Hydrating Body Milk in Chocolate Truffle! I had been eyeing some things from Bidwell Botanicals during the Happily Handmade Giveaway (which I didn't win anything again *sigh*). And, most recently Rare Bird Finds features Jill's Chocolate Obsession Gift Box (pictured left here).

So, I got my hands on a bottle of the Hydrating Body Milk cause, well, I am a lotionaholic (yes and I don't want an intervention or anything thank you) and I can ALWAYS use more!! This stuff just flows like silk on the skin and the smell is just out of this world. I actually thought about eating my hand off because it smells so good. And, I'm not talking about a Hershey Bar kinda chocolate here..I'm talking like a Dove bar or even a piece of Godiva milk chocolate. It's a really high quality chocolate scent. It's a really good lotion and a excellent fragrance. I went to have lunch with my son at school yesterday and before I left I used it on my hands. Every adult I came in contact with was asking who's got the chocolate? It's that good!
There are 7 other fragrances you can get the lotion in, including Spun Sugar. A 4 ounce bottle runs for $11 and it is a very good lotion.

With Mother's Day fast, and I mean fast approaching...I asked Jill of Bidwell Botanicals if she was having any Mother's Day specials (I need something different this year for my Mother-In-Law) and this is what Jill told me. Starting today, May 5th, through Thursday May 10th you can get 20% off of the regular prices at Bidwell Botanicals. Use the code MOM (type it as you see it) for the 20% off, it does NOT apply to items already on sale so shop wisely. Also, you can get free gift wrapping (boxes and bows) and a complimentary card with your order. If you want it to get to your mom in time for Mother's Day, you must place your order no later than Wednesday the 9th for standard shipping or Thursday the 10th for Fed Ex Overnight (extra charge). Free shipping on orders over $75. Jill has plenty of really good gift sets for your Mom (don't forget the chocolate!), so get on over to Bidwell Botanicals and do a little Mom shopping!

Do Something Nice for Your Feet

I was not blessed with pretty feet! My mother, God rest her soul, had nice little petite feet. I got stuck with thick ankles and size 10 flat feet!!! They're always dry, I think I have a callous and it looks like there's small planters warts growing, I'm not sure. OK TMI, I know..sorry.

So, in my last Crafty Cube purchase, I got some really good sized samples of some foot products from Coon's Farm.
I got a sample of her Exfoliating Foot Soap and her Refreshing Foot spray.

The Exfoliating Soap has a really nice Berry Mint scent. It also scrubs really well. You can't tell by just feeling the dry soap, but once you get it wet and start rubbing your feet you can really feel the exfoliation going on. The soap has Pumice (the ultimate foot exfoliator), Peppermint Oil and Vitamin E.

The Refreshing Foot Spray really does a number on hot, tired feet. I've been going on a lot of walks lately and it really feels good to spray this on my feet when I get home. It's made with Witch Hazel, Rosemary Oil (a natural deoderant), Peppermint Oil and Tea Tree Oil (a known antibacterial). It cools on contact and the mint fragrance is just right. I've had some foot products that just overwhelmed you with the smell of peppermint. This is a refreshingly light scent.

The soap costs $4.50 for a 4.5 ounce bar. The spray can either be bought in a 4 ounce size for $4.95 or an 8 ounce size for $7.95. There's also a Foot Soak that sells for $7.95 for 12 ounces. I did not get a sample of that nor have I tried it so I can't comment on it personally. You can even buy all three (you'll get a 4 ounce spray) for only $14.95 which is a pretty good deal.

I know there are alot of foot products out there to pamper your feet. I've tried these two from Coon's Farm and I found them refreshing and they do what they say they do. So go ahead and do something nice for your feet!
