Catherine,

Since you can't seem to give up giving away patterns (thank God!),
maybe the book you eventually sell should be one of little snipits and
quotes about the history of henna (such as the one above & the little
history lesson on this web site). Such a coffe table (henna table?)
format would be easy for customers to read while waiting on line or
waiting for more lemon/sugar. It would also make them feel that they
were participating in something all the more exotic and intriguing,
and enhance their experience of the ritual. Plus, it would steer
customers away from the 'temporary tattoo' frame of mind that leads to
requests for black and seems to bug the living shit out of so many
here on the forum. I'll buy it. And I bet it would be a good seller
in hip, trendy book stores. All those trendy people will get
accidentally educated while attempting to make their coffee table look
cool.

P.S., I'll also take some Bulgarian Gypsy patterns if AOL will let me
:)
