Peppermint Bomb Balm.

Phew! It smells like Christmas in the entire house, thanks to mine and Nik's amazing idea to make chapstick today! Didn't look too promising at first, but I think it may be a success. They're cooling in the freezer as we speak (: The recipe called for shea butter, bees wax, goat's powdered milk, some vitamin e, olive oil, and apricot oil. Well...couldn't find goat's powdered milk so we got buttermilk and I swear apricot oil doesn't exist in the whole wide world of Freddy G. Meyer, so we got peppermint oil. Oh Em Gee. A half an hour of boiling that crap together and it's raining candy canes, people! Give it a couple minutes to cool, and we'll see what happens...

Off to babysit little Bradley, my brother's sweet pumpkin!
