Another Table for the Sunday Marketplace
Has anyone else seen the new table over there, sort of by itself? Granted, the dragon sleeping around the entourage is more than a tad off-putting. If you watch he whole group closely the whole picture shifts, That chubby woman behind the table, yes, the one that seems so plain, until you see her up close. Then you see how old and innocent her eyes are.
She is the Queen of her tiny Kingdom; A gay, patchwork canopy, with ribbons and bits of sewn on mirror, is her pavillion and beneath it are aromatic, indulgent creations to delight any woman. Her table is full of assorted bottles, jars, bags,and boxed kits of herbal beauty products. She will take the time to make sure you know how to use her products. With any unstoppering of a bottle the two cats sniff appreciatively, before going back to grooming the dragon, who is fully limp in bliss.
I am here with my herbal goodies, soaps, oils, lotions, bath teas, bath oils of all sorts to sniff through.
There is Rose Milk & Honey,
Chamomile and Aloe,
Lavender and Oatmeal,
And Comfrey-Borage Soaps.
I have bay leaf oil for sore, knotted muscles
Chamomile oil to moisturise your face as never before.
Sage oil, part of a three-fold treatment for psoriasis.

Over here are the splashes for your face:]
This one is chamomile, for sensitive skin,
There is the rose and honey splash,
And the bottle there has the chamomile astringent.
Here are massage oils, for relaxation and romance,
In the corner are the bath oils; rose, jasmine, lavender, and mint.

Fabulous idea.
What a wonderful collection Gwen. No wonder you are to become the Amazon Queen's beauty therapist. Of course, you do realise that Baba will hear and demand you come and work in her place.
Lois Dear!! I cannot tell how much the idea of a 'Tea Bat' tickles my imagination. Now I shall have to make a 'Tea Bat' for our Lois (Muse of the Sea). The idea has had me smiling all night.
Heather Love. Who'd a thunk it?? That the tomboy who preferred Breyer horses to dolls, my Junior Scientist Kit to Barbie clothes; the girl that sulked through her brother's birthday party because she wanted the colouring book the boys got!! She is now Alchemist to the Amazon Queen!! What a beautiful, wiggly world!!
