They contain natural chemicals that interact with biological systems. Never use large amounts of essential oils externally, or internally. Never use essential oils straight. Essential oils must always be diluted in carrier oil, or soap, lotion, or other buffering agent. Finally, never use essential oils without knowing what their bioactive compounds are known to do. There are multitudes of great websites that explain what essential oils can do, including when and how to use them safely.

Glass is one of the best materials there is for mixing and storing food. Why? Because it doesn't pick up odors or tastes and so doesn't transfer any "extra" taste to your foods. Pyrex glass is especially desirable, as it's constructed to be durable and is safe to use in the oven, microwave, freezer, and dishwasher. Pyrex has been making quality glass products for the better part of a century--this company pioneered heat- and cold-resistant glassware--so when it comes to glass, they know whereof they speak. Keep wet and dry ingredients separated in these three bowls while you mix and bake, then store leftover cookie dough in one of them when you're done. The set costs less than your average music CD--not a bad deal considering the quality--and, if you're moderately careful, it will last you a lifetime. Bowls stack for easy storage. --Meg HeffernanSAVE NOW on the special offers below!
