Despite the freewheeling, out-in-the-open quality of New Orleans culture, with its proliferation of street music and open-air activity, there are some places in the city's renowned Vieux Carre that tease passersby with their unwillingness to be seen. They are the secluded gardens of the French Quarter, which lie behind wrought-iron gates, at the end of narrow alleys, over high walls; their reticence tempts every visitor to try to look inside. Roy Guste, Jr., is something of a New Orleans celebrity: he is a member of the family that has owned the city's most famous restaurant, Antoine's, and for many years was its proprietor. He is the perfect host, then, for a tour of some of the city's hidden jewels. The Secret Gardens of the Vieux Carre allows you to go behind the barriers and experience the French Quarter's beautiful gardens firsthand, getting a glimpse of true, elegant New Orleans lifestyle. The book takes the reader on a tour of twenty of the most gorgeous gardens in the Vieux Carre, the city's oldest neighborhood. The climate of New Orleans is near-tropical, and so are its gardens: here, in photographs by the author and noted New Orleans photographer Glade Bilby, you will see fig trees, jasmine, gingers, Japanese plum trees, wisteria, and bougainvillea, set in gardens that give the appearance of laxity but, on closer inspection, reflect great attention to detail. The French- and Spanish-style houses and courtyards are all poignant bits of history, and as he leads you through the gardens, Guste offers descriptions of both their aesthetic beauty and their documented past. The Secret Gardens of the Vieux Carre' is the perfect book for anybody who wants to penetrate some of the mosttreasured and well-kept mysteries of this beautifully mysterious city.

Nourishing Body Lotion
Size: 20.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I was pleasantly surprised with this body lotion. Very nourishing, light clean scent, and affordable. Great for dry, thirsty, menopausal skin. Thicker and creamier than expected. Highly recommend!

My Go-To Daily Body Wash—Soft & Clean
Size: 30.6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This Dove body wash is ultra creamy and lathers beautifully, especially when used with a poof. I love how clean and refreshed my skin feels afterward—no residue or greasy feeling at all. The coconut scent is warm and pleasant without being overpowering, and it feels so gentle on my skin with no irritation or sensitivity. The packaging is great, and the pump dispenses smoothly. I use it daily for both shower and bath, and I’ve even set it up on Subscribe & Save because I love it that much. Overall, it’s a luxurious, everyday body wash that leaves my skin soft, hydrated, and happy.

Body Wash!
Size: 30.6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Great value for the price. Love the pump on it for putting the soap on my hands or wash cloth. This one is coconut but you can get regular soap and it works great. I just love the coconut smell.
