Let's Talk About Love...

Found this adorable free love advice segment from Niecy Nash.  She currently hosts a show called, “Let's Talk About Love”.  In this segment, Niecy takes over a busy street corner to offer free love advice to men and women with a variety of issues.

And, to go with the love theme, a love potion recipe made with essential oils:

• 10 drops of Rose essential oil
• 10 drops of Sandalwood essential oil
•   5 drops of Jasmine essential oil

Add to a diffuser.

Along side your lovely looove potion create a brunch with hearty pancakes, strawberries and fresh coffee. 

For a body spray dilute to 1% in jojoba, put in a dark amber bottle and shake before using.


Enjoy!
