Christmas 2011

I did experiment on my family this Christmas.  I have an attic full of Christmas decorations.  I limited them to a Christmas tree, nativity set, 1 snowman and a door wreath.  I usually put out many snow globes, wind up this and thats, miniature trains, miniature trees, angels, snowmen, snow houses, lights, and on, and on, and on.   It did prove one thing.  It did not matter what was in the house but who was in the house.  Lots of love and fun.  This grandma (Memaw) is very happy this year.  I do not have to put much away!

OLIBELLA

The idea of "Olibella" was developed in 2008.  Olibella is a salt scrub for your hands and body.  After many trials and errors, the recipe for Olibella was finally produced.  Olibella is a combination of sea salt, olive oil and a variety of fragrances.  The incredible softness of this product is unbelievable.  Sea salt has many healing properties and olive oil is the ancient secret of all the Mediterranean women, back to the time of Cleopatra.   The fragrances also produce from a calming feeling (like lavender) to an envigorating feeling like tea tree oil. 

Olibella was named after my granddaughters Olivia and Bella................."Oilbella"  Bella is beautiful in Italian and Olivia is Olive for Olive oil in Italian.  Thus the Mediterranean name and logo of the Italian Flag. 

We knew that Olibella softened the skin.  That was the main reason for its creation. Over the years we found Olibella has been beneficial for many, many other things as well. 

• Removes callouses from heels elbows
• Promotes healing of eczema
• Relieves the itch of dry skin
• Kills germs
• Removes sticky labels
• Removes magic markers/paint from skin
• Removes tar from cars.
• Cleans and deodorizes sinks and bathtub

*Olibella is not recommended for the face, as salt is an eye irritant.

Quote of Today

Quote of the day:


'Whatever you give a woman, she will make greater. If you give her sperm, she'll give you a baby. If you give her a house, she'll give you a home. If you give her groceries, she'll give you a meal. If you give her a smile, she'll give you her heart.

She multiplies and enlarges what is given to her. So, if you give her any crap, be ready to receive a ton of shit.'

WHERE DID THE BUNNY GO?

Here is a funny Easter story................My son, Scotty, around the age of 16, came home after being out for quite a long while.  I said, where have you been?  He said I was out getting a tattoo. I said, I do not believe you.  He said, yes! I did.  I got a tatoo of a bunny rabbit.  Again I said, I do not believe you and I do not see a tattoo anywhere.  So where did you get a tattoo?  He said, on my (a__) bottom.  I said, now I know I don't believe you!!  He said well, I did.  Okay, okay, I said, show me the bunny then.  He dropped his drawers, and there was the "moon", with no bunny.  I said, I do not see a bunny!  He turned his head and looked down at his (a__) and said, Whoops he must have gone in the hole!.   Joke on mom!
