After I had towel dried my hair from my nightly bath - a bath, mind you, consisting of only a bucket of freshly boiled water resting at the foot of the tub, along with a sponge and whatever powders or soaps I have on hand - I went to my father and kissed him lightly on the cheek and said my Goodnight.
He stopped me for a moment and sniffed my hair, again.
"Julie - when did we have vanilla shampoos in the house?" - he said.
'We don't, Father. I only used the baking soda to clean my hair tonight.'
I thought it was cute, at least. :)
Goodnight, everyone!
