handmade



The package arrived and was waiting for me quietly in our mailbox. Inside it was a bar of soap, small enough to fit on my palm. The gift is not the soap, however -- it's the gentle fragrance of lavender. When I picked it up and breathed in, the smell took me all the way to Japan where this soap was made. Handmade with love, red wine, and lavender. What a lucky girl I am.
