So I use what I can to moist my skin and lips so they feel soft and refreshed.

Years ago when I taught preschool, I set up such a center and the kids loved it!!!

This way I have more time for my holiday cooking and baking. Try it as it will release a lot of stress and be more time consuming for other things.

It helps a lot when I realize perfection might not be attainable but everyone might still be enjoying themselves just fine!

It was recently broken and with 3 kids, the dishes really piled up and just looking at that mess caused me stress. A friend of mine fixed it (simple) and now everything goes into the dishwasher and off the counter. It's just a little thing, but it's one less thing that I have to deal with.
