I have established a reputation. When ever the word "turmeric" is mentioned all eyes dart my way to see my face light up and a big dimpled smile spread from ear to ear.
I don't mean to brag but I am becoming the guru of a magical little spice called turmeric. This has become common knowledge to my fellow classmates thanks to some of the experiments I am conducting to investigate the effectiveness of the potent powder.
<-- Here I am conducting an experiment on Ben's back to test the effectiveness of turmeric as an agent used for hair removal.
Ben's willingness to participate in the study is appreciated. He often reminds me of his noble sacrifice, "I have donated my body to science."
Unfortunately this particular experiment has proven to be much too inaccurate to be used as official results.
I am working on developing a more precise way to count hairs and or measure hair growth. I welcome any suggestions or ideas...
One of the more common uses of turmeric is as a beauty product. It is said to create "radiant and glowing skin." Brides traditionally rub turmeric over their face a day or two before their wedding.
I talked with a woman who gave me a recipe for a turmeric facial which I have been testing on any willing guinea pigs.
So far so good. Everyone seems to enjoy them. After about 10 min. they start to really burn. I tell them, "thats how you know its working." he he he...
*Warning: if you would like to try this at home, it may stain your face causing a jaundiced appearance for a few days.
