Keeping It Spicy-Time for Yourself CLOSED

By Holly

I really believe that one of the ways to Keep It Spicy is to have some alone time. Time when there are no interruptions. For me I get about 30-40 minutes once a week. I get to fill the tub with hot water, read on my Kindle and relax. Steve takes the kids to the basement to play. So it’s quiet and peaceful. (Now this long bath is usually ended with one or both kids climbing in with me but it saves time me bathing them later right?)

In our house, Steve and I do most everything together aside from work. Steve works outside of the home and works 3 or 4 days a week. He has the schedule from Hades but he likes it and it seems to work fine for our family. I however work a reguler 10-6 job Monday through Friday. So when Steve’s home we’re together. Errands need to be run, we usually do those together as well. Doctor’s appointents, play dates, parties? All done together. But for all of our sakes, this mommy needs a little time alone. I need to destress from the work I do. It may not seem all that stressful (I am allowed to work in my PJs) but I do see some tragic situations and as a person with a big heart its hard to hear about people passing or being hurt significantly. I also have the kids with me almost 24/7. Because I work from home guess where they are. Here! I wouldn’t change it for the world but it does mean that I never get away. So once a week I take my bath.

Lately I’ve been using products from Lush. I had the pleasure of using the Big Blue Bath Bomb and the Sakura Bath Bomb. Then I heard of Lush’s Romantic Weekend line. The line includes the Soft Couer Massage Bar, Heavanilla Massage Bar, Bathos Bubble Bar and the Sex Bomb Bath Bomb. I just had to try out the Sex Bomb Bath Bomb and the Soft Couer Massage Bar. Who can resist the smell of jasmine with rice rose petals? The massage bar is made from all natural products including chocolate! It’s entirely lickable.

Fizzy they do. Charlie loved to watch it fizz. Thought it was fantastic. I do have to say I was not forewarned that some of the bath bombs contain natural surprises. So I didn’t know until I threw the Big Blue Bath Bomb into the water that I would have presents with me. If you are unsure of whether or not you would be okay with this (Or know that you would hate anything else floating with you) I would follow Lush’s suggestion of placing the bath bomb in a nylon.
