I AM OBSESSED WITH SOAP

 

I suppose there are worse things I could be addicted to.    I cannot resist buying bar soaps.  I do not get into shower gels that much.  So in terms of bars of soap, if there's a new one out I have to try it.    I even latch back onto the old ones.   My current fave is "Caress".   The original formula.  If you want to smell fresh and soapy for hours,  THIS is the one I recommend.  Second runnner-up in this "soapy fresh" category is Dove UNSCENTED.  Who knew!!?  Unscented smells really scented!    For deodorant soaps I've always loved LifeBuoy (available from the "Vermont Country Store") , and good old SafeGuard and Dial.    I wash my face with IVORY only! 

 

 

For whatever it is worth: in my books, Ivory is the best-tasting...

 

Oh Pa...Ivory was so bitter!!  Then again, I have nothing to compare it to.  My mother used that stuff on my mouth because it was the cheapest soap in the house.  That's what I always assumed, anyway.

 

I once sprayed my mother's lemon-scented perfume in my mouth to see if it tasted like lemons.  Surprisingly, it did. 

 

 

 

"Aren't you glad you used DIAL?  Don't you wish EVERYBODY did?"      My Mom hates the smell of DIAL because she said she used to wash her dogs with it millions of years ago and she associates the perfume with wet dog fur. 

 

I probably should wash my own mouth out with soap for all the times I've used foul language since the last time I had to eat the Ivory.

 

Well, maybe I'll just go wash my fingertips with soap as punishment for typing foul words on my computer.  That should take care of the matter.
