Around my domicile you just never know WHAT will jump out at ya when you open the fridge. Mostly whatever it is would definitely NOT be considered blog-worthy. However, on the rare occasion it definitely IS.
Take the other day when I reached in for juice and yogurt and right there, hanging out with the Splash, I found some product called LUSH staring back at me. Just waiting, with a little note.
LUSH?
You may not realize it, but I pride myself on being spot-on with new products of all sorts. But, LUSH?
Confusion ran through my brain. Was someone trying to tell me something? I mean I have a glass of wine here-and-there and the occasional vodka cocktail, but LUSH? Hardly.
With trepidation, I removed the product for closer inspection. What in the world was LUSH, I pondered?
Reading the instructions left behind by the invisible gift-giver, I smiled.
Although I freely admit I had never heard of this brand, I know about it now. Not only was there a cool (literally) gift in the ice box (love that old-school terminology, don't you?), but there were more scattered about. Oh, what fabulous gifts I had received.
Do you kids know about this stuff?
I mean I think hand lotion in the form of a bar of soap is quite spectacular. But, maybe I'm easily impressed. No, that can't be it.
If you aren't a LUSH lover, as yet, here is why you should consider becoming one.
Call me lazy, I'm good with that moniker, because I let Wikipedia 'splain the factoids of LUSH to ya.
##
From Wiki...Lush (trademarked in capitals as LUSH) is a handmade cosmetics company headquartered in Poole, Dorset in the UK. Incorporated by Companies House in 1994 originally under the name Cosmetic House Limited, Lush adopted their current name on 10 April 1995. There are now more than 600 stores in 43 countries. Lush produces and sells a variety of handmade products, including face masks, soaps, bath bombs, bubble bars, hand and body lotions and hair treatments. In 1994, husband and wife Mark and Mo Constantine opened the first LUSH store in Poole.
LUSH uses fruit and vegetables, essential oils, and synthetic ingredients in all products produced. In addition to not using animal fats in their products, they are also against animal testing and perform tests solely with volunteers instead.

Sounds good, huh? Sounds good and IS good.
My giver-of-gifts quite accurately understood I would need coaching and considerately placed little star-shaped stickies on each product, explaining their name and use. Don't be giving me the old squint-eye until you have some bar lotion of your own.
So, there you have it and doesn't it all sound simply too divine? Who wouldn't want to get bath bombed? Oh, wait. Can you do that without vodka? Hm.
Still, I am curious as to why my dear friend, British-Brian, failed to mention LUSH to me. I mean, it is a UK product, he is a UK product, and it is sort of a small kingdom, so how hard could it be for him to be a sharing LUSH-LOVER?
