What we are tweeting about! What we are tweeting about!

I am excited to say after MANY years of practice, we have finally mastered making bath bombs! I know it sounds crazy,but let me tell you it  is a very sensitive touchy thing to make!  Your ingredients have to be just right, not too wet or too dry,and you have to work fast.

In years past it looked like the episode of I Love Lucy,when Ethel and Lucy were working in the candy factory,on the conveyor belt, and it started running faster,and Lucy could not keep up,and a huge mess was made,and Lucy ends up crying. Well that pretty much sums it up of me,and Siser trying to make bath bombs in years past.

Now, we can pop them out like toot sweets in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang!

Our bath bombs are extra moisturizing,they are made with cocoa butter,and Almond oil. Which penatrate the skin,and do leave the bath tub greasy. Plus they will leave you smelling wonderful! Our kids love them. It's like a big Alka Seltzer for the tub. Tons of fizz,fragrance,and moisture. You will love this new product just in time for Christmas only 3.95 each!  Make your own gift set like the one in the picture,which has Black Raspberry Vanilla,Treehugger,Carolina Breeze,and Wrightsville Breeze.

We'll even wrap it up. Just leave us a note on the order.

For 11 years straight Wrightsville breeze has been our number one selling soap. The name is after Wrightsville Beach NC. Which is about 5 miles max from my soap kitchen. We are so close our address is 3342 Wrightsville Ave.

The soap is a very pretty color of sea foam green with either a sand dollar  or another beautiful shell placed on top of the bow.The scent is very fresh and oceany when ever I use it people always ask “what fragrance are you wearing.

If you are looking for a soap for a gift this is your soap. Father’s day is Sunday make Dad and his bathroom smell fresh!

Men and women LOVE this soap.We sell so much we make it in lotion bars,salts,scrubs,and even the fragrance by itself.

So if you can not make it to the beach this year let us send it home to you!P9220539

The other day I opened up a can of canned peaches. Yuck! They did not even taste like peaches! They just tasted like something sweet and stale. Kinda like when you leave a watermelon in the fridge,and you do not cover it. You come back the next day to slice off a little bit and it taste funky.

Well it is sorta the same with our soaps. I challenge you to use a grocery store bought soap,then try our soap. If you do not LOVE our soap I will send your money back! That pretty much wraps it up.

Like the peaches, you can have canned  peaches made months ago with no taste or enjoyment.Or you can buy fresh peaches,and taste,smell, and see the difference.

Our soaps are made fresh daily,with fresh herbs I grow. We use organic oils,or natural oils depending on what I am making.We use essential oils.

Our soaps are made in small batches so I can physically handle all the ingredients.

I make sure they are the best on the market or they go home with me for my family to use.

Today we had a  soap making birthday party for a little girl turning 4. She had 6 friends come,some drove a hour to the party because they had heard about the soap shop,but had never come to shop, or visit.

I wish I could post pictures,but I can’t. I have to protect their identity.

Ages ranged from 2-6  years old, boys and girls.The children had more fun in the soap kitchen then they did eating cake!

They kept coming back to the kitchen with icing all over their sweet little faces asking in their munchkin voices is the soap ready.

Can we make another soap.

They got so excited about being able to mix,add fragrance glitter,and pour their own soaps. Yes it went everywhere,but to see their faces,watching their friends pour their own soap.In their own mold,with their own designs that  they made was awesome.

The littlest things made them so happy. I do not even recognize them anymore  the smell,the shapes they made,all the colors. Knowing they were going to bathe with the soap...

This blog is gonna big short and sweet. Like my first Husband!

I love Kashi frozen dinners! When ever I want something good to eat,and just can not stomach Mc D.

I go to my favorite grocery store and pick up a cart full of theses.

I know they cost more than other frozen foods,but check the label,it is so much better for you.Plus when you pull up to the window at your favorite fast food it cost the same!

Now don’t let them go on sale at the grocery store.I’ll be there everyday stocking up.I tell ya they are that yummy!P4232728

Thank you Kashi for helping me feel good about what I eat,when I’m in a hurry which is most of the time!

So today is Earth Day, and we decided we would write about LOVE and taking special care of those in your life that may need help.Help that is done out of the pure goodness in your heart.Help that is done without expecting anything back in return.Our earth needs lots of help and love.

In siser Carol’s family,they recycle their trash,have a stinky compost pile,they drive 2 energy efficient cars, use low pressure shower heads,and also buy 12 year light bulbs.

Siser Eilene recycles her families trash,makes pillows and other household items from old clothes,shops too much at any kind of stinky thrift store,and air dries the family clothes.

We teach our children not to litter and to pick up trash if you see it, EVEN if its not yours.Also to take faster showers,turn off lights,and not to waste anything.

Now to get the understanding of why we mention the Mormons.Siser and I have met the sweetest young men this year from...

I had the cutest young (tween) girl come into the soap shop about 3 weeks ago.

She wanted to be my graphic designer! She was awesome! Very pretty,hip,and talented.

We are always looking for fresh young knowledge!

Her Mother,Grandmother,(who had some cool hip name like Grandma K , ) or something totally cool for a grandmother,and her little sister came in.They looked like they walked out of a Boden catalog.

Let me just say the whole gang was not your average bear!

Lets see Momma,Grandma,and daughters were all gorgeous! Seriously!

It was like I was flattered they thought we were cool. You know it’s kinda like when somebody is totally fab,and they think your cool,and you’re thinking man this person thinks I got it going on! Such a compliment.

Well if labor laws were not a issue Alex would be working in my office! Oh well, maybe someday I’ll get the honor of having Alex work for me. I would love Alex to make me ...

I have to confess.I am addicted to Diet Coke!

I hate it! I know they are terrible for my health all those chemicals to make it sweet.The artificial color.

I have tried everything that sounds fun exciting,all those swanky natural sodas,at the health food store.P4192714

The herbal infused waters.(I must say the peppermint water was my favorite if I had to choose.) The only thing is none of the alternatives had that good Coke burn! That FIZZ! I have tried Seltzer water and mixed it with juice.People it just ain’t the same.

Don't’ get me wrong I drink my eight classes of water.But come about 3:00 in the afternoon.I want my burn!

I love...

Today I went into my soap kitchen,and truly enjoyed making cold process soaps.I made organic soaps. Such as Organic soymilk loofa. Let me just tell ya the difference between Organic coconut oil,and natural coconut oil are like night and day.The natural coconut oil has no smell,But Gee Mo Nellie the Organic coconut smells like a fresh coconut macaroon! I had to make my self stop sniffing the barrel .

I also made our famous natural bug repellent soap,and finally Organic olive cream. I know it sounds boring but Olive oil or castile soap is my favorite. It is creamy non drying and 100% organic olive oil.

I enjoyed my beautiful stainless steel tables,my soap making tools I have collected over the past 11+ years. To think I started out of my house in 1999 making 2 pound batches. It is still crazy to me how fast things took off.

If I can start a business anyone can. Like the saying goes love what you do and never work a day in your life.

Today was a great soap making day. I hope you enjoyed...
