Trader Joe’s Rants & Raves (mostly raves, a few rants)

At this time of year I have one or two Must Buy items that I need to make sure are in the bathroom.

At the risk of repeating myself, my Must Have things to have in our bathroom in summer are:

Trader Joe’s CASTILE PEPPERMINT SOAP as well as the TEA TREE TINGLE BODYWASH SOAP.

For me, it’s just a necessity to have these in our bathroom for when it’s just Too Hot. For shower think Tea Tree Tingle soap. Using this in the shower really cools you off.

The castile peppermint soap is instantly cooling and refreshing (though you have to be careful around your eyes and around sensitive body parts). Useful for all kinds of cleaning tasks, say for doing laundry, adding a capful of it to your regular soap will help make even sweaty gym clothes smell clean and fresh.
