bath time exposed

Everyone has been saying to me lately: "Tell me about your nightly bathing rituals". I figured it's about time that I provided some details.

I often bathe at night even after showering in the "morning" or at the gym in the afternoon. I find it relaxing and luxuriating to soak in the tub for up to an hour.

Critical to any bath is a good beverage choice. Here we have chamomile tea, but I also enjoy grapefruit juice, wine, or scotch.



It's nice to keep a snack handy, like fruit or nuts.



In keeping with the chamomile theme, here is a great new bubble bath that I found at Whole Foods. Try to find real bubble bath. Today's popular body washes often look like bubble bath, but they are an unsatisfactory substitute.



Atmosphere is really important for a good bath, so I usually light a votive candle during bath time.





For reading material, I am partial to Rolling Stone, but here are some other regular reads.



I also require a wash cloth, initially to keep my hands dry and later for use as a compress over face.
