This morning I picked up a big bottle of Dr. Bronner's peppermint castille soap, thinking it would be the perfect thing on a hot day to make the task of mopping my floors a bit more manageable- the scent never fails to refresh my senses. As I was checking out at the grocery store I read just a small snippet from the text that wraps around the entire bottle: "Do one thing at a time! work hard! get done!" Inspirational advice from the side of a soap bottle, no? A few years ago someone made a documentary about 'Dr Bronner' himself, called the Magic Soapbox. This guy held 13 birth control patents, 1000 acres of Rain Forest, and seemingly invented a new mineral salt. Curious.
I just added it to my Netflix queue, after reading a CBS radio critic call it "An inspiration for eccentrics everywhere!". I can't decide if I think the guy is a total freak-o or a humanitarian genius. We'll see. In the meantime, it's going to be my summer go-t0 all natural everything cleaner- floors, sheets, bathtub, outdoor furniture, etc. Hey-it tingles!
