he makes me
think about these things

Janet Kuypers, 02/10/09

I looked in my kitchen and saw olive oil.
now... think about it
olive oil from olives, right.
so let’s break it down:
peanut oil: from peanuts.
almond oil: almonds.
corn oil, canola oil, safflower oil,
grape seed oil, flaxseed oil.
vegetable oil: from vegetables.
essential oils are concentrated oils.
i get it.

but what’s in baby oil?
