It is also used for soap making, yes lemon oil contains some useful nutrients that helps to fight germs, it is added to organic soaps to add more nutrient and also to increase the frangrance.

     How to make lemon oil at home.
1) Get your fresh lemon: Fresh lemons are used because they still have all essencial nutrients present in it and the lemon scent is very strong. So you need some fresh lemons. Wash them very well under running water or a bowl of water.




2) Get a vegetable cutter to cut slivers/peels  off, ensure you remove the bitter white pith of the lemon.

    

3) In a non stick pot or heating pot, place the lemon peels in and add coconut oil to cover the surface. Turn the heat on a low and shimmer for 5 minutes.




5) Place the oil aside for the oil to the take in the lemon favour.

6) Strain the oil in a clean air tight mason jar or bottle and store in the dark cabinet or fridge.

Hey guys, I want to share my trip to the AGODI GARDENS with ya'll, just before i start, this  trip was not planned, I made up MY mind to go just a night before i went with my friends. I was late..so i had to meet up with them, it was a sunny day too so i got a cab at an affordable amount, when I got there, I was asked to pay a gate fee which I did, before I was allowed to go in.

'


The first place we went to...was the zoo, the zoo was not well equipped and lacked plenty animals, but the good thing was the presence of tall trees.. making the zoo very cool. The first animal I saw was a parrot, although it did not say a word.




The second were two monkeys in their cages, prolly looking for bananas.



The third animal was a crocodile, I was amazed at it, it was just motionless and calm, everyone kept saying  it was pretending, it was just waiting for a prey.



Then we went for a boat cruise, I had a probelm with it, because the water was smelling....but it was fun tho.


I saw a camel..and a horse too.'




The most interesting part was the swimming pool, the swimming pool was neat, and the color was very clean, I went with my bikini, but I could not, so i had to wear my swimming attire.



-

My experience was a good one and I hope  you guys can  go there too...we ate by the pool side too.
