Bellissimo Sapone

I don't really like soap. Its nice enough, but I don't use it on my body, and prefer handwash to wash my hands with (I make my own with aqueous cream & essential oils. Bargainous & moisturising). However, I luuurve this soap. I first tried it in Tuscany when we were staying with friends in a villa for a week. And I was sadly resigned to never being able to buy any, until I discovered a large stash at the Oxford Botanical Gardens store!
It is deliciously scented, has beautiful wrappers, and comes in extra large, chunky blocks. And it feels beautiful when you use it. I'm not sure why it warrants a blog post, except to share my happiness at having found some, and the little bit of joy I get every time my hands are dirty in the kitchen. Small pleasures.
