helwenSundry cleaning-type things in the a.m., then off to the chiropractor for my adjustment. Knees have been a problem lately, among other things. She noted a general congested state of being and recommended ginger, licorice root, and slippery elm. Well, I have a tea at home that has two out of three and the licorice (yuck) is what's most helpful with congestion of all sorts apparently.
Then I had a little over an hour to kill before work, so I went to Don Gleason's Camping on Pearl Street in Noho, and got topographic maps for between Holyoke and Ashfield, both through Easthampton and northward and also Williamsburg and Greenfield maps.
Then went to Deals and Steals on Pleasant Street (close to Don Gleason's). Got probably 2-3 years' worth of Toms of Maine toothpaste (hey, at those prices I wasn't going to argue, and the sell-by date was sometime in 2009), as well as some Luna Lemon Zest bars, and some cute little bottles of Toms of Maine jasmine liquid soap. Should be handy when camping, and the bottles are re-usable.
Dropped things off at the car, stopped in at Acme Surplus to buy some safety pins, tape, and gauze for building the first aid kits. Picked up a muffin and a cookie (I know, really healthy) in Thorne's Market on the way back to work. Did laundry at work again, between massages, filing, etc. So, I got a little exercise running around town all afternoon. Home again, home again, to show![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
fitzw the maps and stuff and get ready for a client. fitzw made beeswax cakes after the client left, for sale at Birka. The double boiler is quite handy, and the cakes are yummy-looking. Unlike the soaps I used to sell at Birka, if someone were to actually take a bite of one of these, nothing bad would happen to them (as far as I know, glycerin isn't that great to take internally, at least not in large quantities). Hopefully they'll be of use to embroiderers, bookbinders, etc.
That's it for now. No earthshaking thoughts or philosophical stuff. G'night!
