Summer has arrived in our neck of the world...the Ice Cream is dripping and the AC units are running overtime!
This month we have a few new products that we will be rolling out...such as Pie Candles, and some new Jar Candle scents. In addition, we are clearing out some of our soaps to make room for new ones...so be sure to check out the monthly specials or clearance pages.

Site re-vamp. Over the next week or 2 you will also notice that we are doing an overhaul on our website. I think you will be pleased with the simple and elegant new look.

That is all for now...stay cool and don't forget to eat your ice cream!

Long time no post....and WE HAVE NEWS!!!

It is hard to believe that we haven't posted in our blog since January...for shame! We will be trying to make a good effort to post weekly...at least.

Here is what we have been up to since January....

On January 16th we found out that we were expecting our first child. I took a home pregnancy test at work (I also work PT at a Financial Institution). As I stood there waiting for it to change...I noticed nothing was happening. 4 minutes later I started to feel sad...thinking the test wouldn't show anything. Just as I went to throw it out, I made a discovery...I had it turned upside down...and it WAS positive!!
I must have re-read the directions about 3 times before it actually sunk in...then all I could do was look in the mirror and cry out of utter joy!!
I called hubby at work, but the poor guy was right in the middle of a meeting...I had to tell him anyway...it was SO funny! All his employees found out at the same time.
Then I ran down the hall in the bank and told all my co-workers. My manager said to me, "Um...Karen...is that the pee stick still in your hand?" What a goof...I totally forgot to put it away...teeheeehee.

Anyways, we are now coming up to our 5th month and couldn't be happier!

Above is a picture of my tummy at 4 months...

On the business side of things...a lot will be happening, and has happened. We have decided to discontinue quite a few of our moisturizing body bars as we want to focus on 4 or 5 of our most popular scents (Winter Candy Apple, White Tea & Ginger, Morning Rush, Be Delicious, and a NEW scent coming soon)

We will also be adding in a unscented moisturizing body bar for sensitive skin.

NEW PRODUCTS COMING SOON...
Foaming Bath Butter, and Bath Butter Scrub. (still trying to come up with a name for them)
New layered soaps
Cupcake Pedicure Bathbombs
