Fiber from the Coffee

I have a new nightly ritual.  I know I already told you I have reconnected with my little mermaid side but there are some extra perks for getting in that pool and doing laps. I reward myself when I am finished.  After I get to do a little steam room and sauna action.  It is just the cats pajamas.

 Swim, Steam, Sauna, Shower, Sleep. 

AMEN.

This evening as I carefully walked in to the steam room I noticed there seemed to be dirt like partials all over the floor. Then I noticed them on one of the benches that a girl was sitting on.  She was also rubbing her skin. Legs, arms, legs, arms, neck...finally I had to ask what in the world she was doing.  I felt almost foolish when she told me.  "They are fiber, from the coffee. A scrub."  Oh silly Rachel, you have been in Thailand for almost a year.  How do you not know that the steam room is a place to rub coffee on yourself.
