Ahhh... the smell of summer

This is the fourth day of summer but here in Atlanta summer has started weeks ago. We have been blessed (I say tortured) with temperatures in the mid-90's, with the heat index above 100 degrees. It's too hot to be outside! As soon as you walk out, you would get sun burned. I'm I complaining?

I love the smell of summer. Freshly cut grass, barbeque, flowers blooming and grapefruit! Yes, I made homemade grapefruit and ginger bath salt. Ahhhhh. Relaxing. Soothing. Just shut the bathroom door and ignore the kids or you can bribe them with snacks and cartoon while you take some time to yourself.

I used salt (kosher and sea salt), baking soda (makes your skin soft), grated grapefruit, ginger powder (you can substitute it with freshly grate ginger), essential oil and food coloring.

Easy peasey!
