Soaps, Scones & Sundays

We converged at Michelle's place earlier today for some soap-labeling and gift-pack-prepping, and she made these absolutely heavenly scones. I'm not much of a fan of the creamy-rock consistency that local scone-makers seem to favor, and these were delectable and creamy, that perfect balance between fluffy and dense. Yum!

Anyhow, back to the point of this post... after we'd polished off all the scones and had put all our soap labels to good use, we did a quick stock take, and found that we've run low on a couple of things.

Now, first of all, it doesn't take a nuclear physicist to realize that this means we've sold a LOT of soaps. HURRAH!

Secondly, we have to order more from our patient, hardworking soapmaker, which means those of you who have been sitting on the fence and haven't ordered, will now have to wait if what you want is out of stock (Oops!).

Olive Wheatgerm Honey and Tea Tree, Lemongrass & Lime are out of stock at the moment. Just Lavender is extremely low, and orders are still coming in.

On the bright side, we've just had our Goat's Milk Patchouli soaps come in! For those who enjoy a bold, earthy and woodsy aroma, this is the soap for you.

Patchouli essential oil is also known to be excellent for soothing inflamed, irritated skin, aiding in the healing of wounds and sores, and promoting cell rejuvenation. In aromatherapy, it is grounding, and helps to relieve anxiety and depression.

Hope you had a great weekend!

Cheers,
Amber
