    Blending Procedure:

    1. Before getting started with the spa treatment, arrange on the floor, in front of a comfortable chair, a towel big enough to fit a large bowl on. Have an extra towel and a good book ready.

    2. In a large saucepan, heat the milk and water until it is as hot as you can stand. While it's heating, mix your sugar and lotion until all the sugar is coated and the mixture is slightly soupy.

    3. When the milk/water mix is ready, put it in a bowl large enough to fit both feet in. Set the empty bowl down on the towel, and then pour the milk/water mixture in. Place the sugar mix near by and place your feet in the milky mix. Soak for about 10 minutes while reading a chapter from your book.

    4. After soaking, remove your feet and scoop some of the sugar mix. Use your fingers to scrub the sugar mix onto feet bottoms, tops, and between the toes. Scrub until you feel you have exfoliated enough well. Place feet back in the milk/water mixture and rinse well.

    5. When your feet are completely devoid of any sugar, dry them with the extra towel. Slather your piggies with some moisture-rich lotion and sock them until you're ready to show them off. Some new pink nail polish and summer sandals work well with this recipe!
