Give your tootsies some TLC with this DIY scrub created by the
Woman’s World beauty team. To make : Stir^1 ⁄^4 cup of sugar,^1 ⁄^3 cup of
olive oil, 2 Tbs. of lime juice and 5 drops of peppermint essential oil in a
small dish. Rub on each foot for two minutes; rinse. Peppermint’s cool-
ing menthol will invigorate tired feet and constrict blood vessels to end
puffiness, and the lime juice and sugar crystals will remove dead skin
cells so the oil’s nourishing oleic acid can hydrate. Aah...that’s better!

Your favorite homemade or store-bought chocolate chip cook ies get

sheet. (Optional: stir peanut butter, chopped nuts or candy into the
ice cream.) Freeze for 2 hours. Use a round cookie cutter to cut
the ice cream into discs. (Put leftover ice cream back in the container
and freeze.) Place one disc between two cookies, roll sides of sand-
wiches in chocolate chips. Freeze until ready to serve. Makes 12.Dessert wow!

Nun of your business
In a Catholic school cafeteria, a nun places a note in front of a
pile of apples that says, Only take one. God is watching. Farther
down the line is a pile of cookies. A little boy makes his own note
that says, Take all you want. God is watching the apples.
