What can I say? It’s been a full week! We went swimming, my parents were here for a night, school started, and I’m just starting to get back in the swing of things. I made more Dead Sea Spa Bars yesterday – a batch of the original scent and a batch of the new facial [...]
Just thought I’d let you all know that I went ahead and ordered a new lip butter flavor tonight: Candy Corn! Doesn’t that sound like the perfect flavor for fall? I also ordered more Watermelon flavor which has been requested by more than one person. I’m hoping to have the full rainbow of lip butter [...]
In between trips to the pool, the library, and the movie theater, I really am working on soap business, but as little as possible. It’s been great to have time to spend with my girls this summer! I have to say the farmer’s market was outstanding on Saturday! My older daughter decided she wanted to [...]
Fair warning. This post is NOT about soap or anything soap related. I just wanted to let you know what I’ve been up to this week. We are in the middle of our church’s VBS this week (only we call it SBO for Summer Break Out). Last year, I was in the kindergarten class helping [...]
I’ve added a fun little gadget on the sidebar of this blog. Live chat! I’m not sure how often I’ll be available, but I will test it out and see if anyone uses it. Customers with questions… Random people searching the internet who land on my blog… If nothing else, I know soapmakers can be [...]
Lainey’s mom just sent me these photos, and I couldn’t resist showing them to you all. (In case you are just joining us, my daughter and I did a Walk for Crohn’s & Colitis on Saturday with my daughter’s friend Lainey who has Crohn’s.) You’re not even going to believe that I was there because [...]
It was such a busy, fun weekend that I’m having a hard time catching up! Not to mention that my younger daughter had been running a fever since Thursday evening. I finally sent her back to school today. I know you want to hear about the Walk for Crohn’s & Colitis on Saturday. We ended [...]
Hip, hip hooray!!! You have saved the day!!! We just met our goal of $250 for the Crohn’s & Colitis Foundation. My 3rd grade daughter and I will be walking tomorrow with my daughter’s classmate, Lainey, who has Crohn’s in the Take Steps to Be Heard Walk and we’re gonna make some noise!!! Bless you [...]
The countdown has begun until I start selling at the Olathe Farmer’s Market again. Just one week from Saturday! This is my sixth year selling at the market, and I really love it! However, I’m starting to feel the pressure as I plan what needs to get done before then. So if my posts seem [...]
I received my receipt for sending a box of soap for Haiti to Clean the World this week, and just wanted to share some of the letter they sent with it. I am so impressed with this organization! Apparently they sent over 200,000 bars of soap to Haiti in 2009, so they already had a [...]
