The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 5 October 2020 7 Comments

"Dolores Barefield had no idea who left the mysterious gift on her doorstep nor how it held such magical powers, only that its effects were undeniable. To infer she had fallen on hard times would be an understatement, but things were turning around in ways she hadn’t dreamed imaginable. It was springtime in Portland, Oregon and the city was bursting back to life after the wettest winter on record. Life felt possible again. But with newfound strength comes newfound desires, and a perilous search for understanding will lead her to a bizarre world she never knew existed." Bouquet of Miracles bar soap from Imaginary Authors, with rose and red currant, $12 at Luckyscent.

    My first thought was I want a Bouquet of Miracles! My second thought was… remembering the story of the Monkeys Paw ?
    It seems like it’s a good smelling soap though.
