Oatmeal Teabag Bath

Dry skin has attacked, and the worse for the wear is the little one. She always suffers from some kind of dry/sensitive skin. It was 18 degrees here this morning, and, along with making bread from scratch and potato leek soup, I mixed up some oatmeal powder for a spa treatment tonight.

Supplies:
* About one cup of Oats
* Coffee Grinder or Food Processor
* 2 tablespoons of Baking Soda (the cure-all for skin ailments according to our pediatrician)
* Pantyhose or other nylon footwear (to serve as the "tea bag")

Grind oats, combine with baking soda, put in a tube of pantyhose, soak in the tub.
