Because of the problems with the Zika virus from mosquitos

This bug spray keeps the bugs away the natural way. It's made with organic Witch Hazel. It moisturizes your skin with a blend of potent insect repelling essential oils. It contains zero artificial fragrance or synthetic chemicals. Product of USA. The chemical exposure in most bug repellents is unhealthy for children and pregnant women. 

Later I cooked a pasta/veggie dinner. Will share tomorrow. Phone conversations with pals, wine, chair, TV, and again... a nap!

All I know. Nuff said. Happy TBT. Ciao.
