Thanks  Grin

My hair feels really soft today-I think the daily oiling is improving my overall general dryness.

The Yogi Chhai recipe, from Fit Yoga magazine, feb 2006

1 1/2 cups spring or filtered water
1 bag (or 1 teaspoon) green tea (reg or decaf)

1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
pinch of ground cloves
1/8 teaspoon ground ginger
2 tablespoons soy milk or non-fat cow milk
1 tablspoon honey (optional)

1. In a medium saucepan, bring water to a boil over high heat.  Remove pan from heat.

2. Add the tea and spices.  Let steep for 5 minutes.

3. Remove tea.  Add milk and/or honey.

4. Enjoy immediately.

This is sooooooo good.  Warming and soothing and helps sluggish digestion, which is common in winter.  I double the recipe and add the spices to the boiling water, then turn the heat off and add the tea.  Gives a stronger spice flavor.  I use cow's milk-organic low fat.  Mmmmmmmmmm.  Makes me happy!!!  Let me know if you try it!!!  8)

If we ever start "Hairsticks Anonymous" I know who should be the president.   8)

Of course that means we'd have to admit to having a problem and we don't so... Grin

No, the problem is not collecting hairsticks but the continuing inadequacy of our collections.  Tongue

I agree- you should put "Queen of Hairsticks" to your sig! Because that's who you are! Grin

Thanks for the kudos, but my collection is wee small comparied to GREEK_LADY'S!  I have less than half so...I'll just be the "Hairstick Mistress", 'cause G-L's the real "Queen of Hairsticks"!

I'm also the snot mistress these days-either allergies or a cold have attacked my nose.  I am starting to feel better, I hope this doesn't last as long as last time, although that was chest stuff.

One thing I wanted to mention- in my new bellydancing class on Tuesday, there is a lady who's hair is mid-thigh.  She kept in a bubba tail while we were in class.  I haven't met her yet, but I'm a gonna ask her if I can see it unbound sometime.  Many of the others have BSL to waist length hair!!!  Annnnddd then there's me.  Maybe my hair will feel competitive and really kick in the growth!

I've got my red gift, I think I'll be sending hubby to mail it tomorrow.  The way I'm feeling, I likely would pass out if I had to wait in line at the post office.  So I'll send him.

What's a bubba tail? That sounds interesting. Congrats on so many hair sticks. That must give you lots of options. Are you having fun with your belldancing? It sounds interesting, but something I don't know if I have the guts to try.

Sheesh!  I haven't posted in a week. 

Meg-the bubba tail is a segmented pony tail, using equally spaced scrunchies or bands down the length of the pony tail.

Bellydancing is very fun, although you feel like you have no clue and no control over your body when your first begin.  Repetitive movements eventually create new nuropathways that make the movements easier.  I especially like the costume aspect of it, besides it feels good once you know what you're doing.

Yesterday I got a trim.  About 1/4".  Neither hubby or mom could tell I got it cut.  Heehee.

No voice lesson today-teacher is sick.  Without the rain our air quality is very poor and everyone is getting sick and/or staying sick.  Dear God/dess, please send rain soon.  Thanks.

Full moon is on its way-the cats are acting crazy!

Oh, Greek_Lady you never cease to crack me up  Grin  Grin

I don't know about henna, having stopped coloring my hair a year ago but if you want to enhance your waves I'd go for the layers.  Long layers.  Then you just have to be a bit more patient when pinning up a bun.  I am so glad I tried it growing out my layers and then noting that my hair is too thick w/the waves to keep it one length.  I truly love my layers!!

Oh my achin' feet!  Yesterday's ballet class was a killer and then we did more of the same today!  That stupid slip on the wet pavement in October has the ball of my right foot really sore.  I hope it goes away...soon!

Traffic was so bad today.  Stupid full moon & blue hairs.  Hmmm.  I'm feeling hostile, better go meditate.  After my Singapore noodle bowl and House of the Dead 2.  Guess they weren't so dead the first time (heehee).
