Marigold & Fennel Milk Bath
Fennel acts as a stimulant, while marigold offers healing qualities. Milk is an excellent skin softener and conditioner.
Muslin material
8 T. whole milk powder
4 oz. dried fennel seeds
2 oz. dried marigold flowers
ribbon
Cut out a 10 inch diameter circle of muslin.
(Dinner plates make great templates) In a bowl, mix together the seeds, milk powder, and marigold flowers.Place a large handful of the mixture into the center of the muslin circle. Gather up the edges to form a pouch and tie tightly with ribbon. Toss into hot bath and allow to steep about 10 minutes before entering.
The other day a man asked me what I thought was the best time of life. "Why," I answered without a thought, "now."
