We're cleaning out the pantry, and hope you are, too.
As the Skinny Carib herself described in her blog on being "healed" by her grandmother through herbs & food, I, as her Skinny Carib companion, Mr. Pantry am getting a good cleaning in order to prepare for some new experiences with food, folklore and all around festive living. I've found a GREAT PARTNER in the Skinny Carib, and I aim to please her passions. I also plan to charm her with a few surprises, as I've been communicating with her healing friends and folks.
They know more about the needs of ALL her dinner guests. They also know she'll listen to a variety of palettes and health needs because she can't help herself, she LOVES a good party and it's not much of a party if everyone isn't having some fun.
I tossed my other cleansers and I'm going totally eco-human friendly. She's a sensitive soul--the kind who reacts to everything from the heart. So only eco items that allow us to give back to communities in need have been invited to my bachelor party.
Legacy of Clean(TM) products have been Eco and Human-friendly since 1959. Good for you, good for the environment, and gives generously to communities in need.
See, My Skinny Carib honey has sensitive skin, so I'm not keeping anything around that is into Stripping her precious caramel-color or tarnishing those nutmeg brown lips or rich, ground-clove, painted-by-God hair! I know which cleaning products will help take good care. There are others out there, but I had to make a choice and commit to one I know has had longevity.
I'm not anti the young, because sometimes newer is better. Sometimes you learn from old mistakes. Sometimes your best love is your newest love & even one who has had a long history in casting off the things that no longer do the job for her clean, happy soul. However long it took for us to find each other, I'm just glad we did.
I'm not just a home-body either. I do take her on a few trips--even if it's just to the mall to check out some eco-wear for body and habitat. So, I'll be man-toting along a few items for those everyday excursions. I bought her the pink and myself the blue. Check it out.

BLUE PACKS give back to Children in Poverty
Pink Packs support the CURE for Breast Cancer.
Then, after a long day's shopping, especially in polluted air..., we might soak in the hot tub, with some relaxing salts and oils. Maybe some ambient light, nice music, & something to just freshen things up between us. I met this guy, old friend over at Peace Pair, LLC, and he had some really good advice. See he's had a bit more experience with this good, clean life than I have.
He suggested one place for almost all of the above: The Himalayan Salt Shop
All I had to do was pick the music. Luckily my Skinny Carib honey has an awesome Caribbean music suite over at her place. I made some copies.

Yup, and now, I'm doing the gift registry thing and looking through all the stores; I hear there's going to be all kinds of Skinny Carib(R) Home Selects
images, postcards, miniatures, eco-linens,...it's hard to follow her when she gets excited. I just kinda watch her move, and she knows how to keep the costs in line, so I let her do what she does, 'cause it works.
Here's the card we put together: me and her for the Holidays and party invitations. Sorry, man...don't know exactly what she has planned when. I keep a lunar calendar around though, and I picked up a little French: "Quand la lune est plein" =
Whenever the moon is full. I'll hook you up, don't worry--Inbox or Mailbox, brother, whatever you want! Shopping for the new Carib Folks home? Yeah, that's been going well, too. In the mean time, we've been picking out some of the pictures and stuff. You know how much she loves art. We got all kinds of good-looking, different stuff, even a bunch of stuff for my Man Pantry: quotations on poster, laminated posters, giclee prints, French signs printed on tin, wood-mounted Japanese art-work, canvas-mounted classics & some solid wood-framed stuff, too. Yeah, sure, use our affiliate link Skinny Carib Home Selects and check out the discounts and specials.
Let me upload you this picture--it cracks me up! My Skinny Carib honey just bought it. It's this cool French sign on tin "La Malaceiine" with a girl washing her hands in an old-fashioned Caribbean basin. Let's just say every time I see it, I remember why she displays it right next to the sink in La Salle de Bains :-). That whole good, clean life thing again...
Your guess is as good as mine. All I know for sure is August 2012, but you'll know when I know.
