But, I'm replying to you because I made the vegan chocolate cake for my daughter's birthday. It was super yummy. I'm going to try it w/ coconut oil next.-LauraAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2191490968189022599.post-30459631951528491612013-08-23T09:41:02.853-07:002013-08-23T09:41:02.853-07:00Brown sugar scrub?

I've used it on my face and on peeling sunburns, and it's overall great for my skin.<br /><br />My version:<br />1 part olive oil<br />4 part sugar<br />3/4 part baking soda<br /><br />the 'part' is whatever measuring scoop I grab that day. Using a half-cup scoop makes enough to last me a week or so.<br /><br />I also use the olive oil (straight) as moisturizer.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2191490968189022599.post-5332245612343093582013-08-07T10:09:15.096-07:002013-08-07T10:09:15.096-07:00Thanks for that recipe, Janet.

I haven't baked in ages...that's a different post though. I will check out the post on going grey. Interesting. I have tried to go natural with my hair and i miss the highlights so I broke down and got some done a few months ago.
