Product Update
Good evening all!
I have some lousy news. The Whipped Shea Body Cream arrived and it was not the same as the one I usually sell. I am not sure what happened but it smelled very strongly of cocoa butter. It should have been made with deodorized cocoa butter. It was also very waxy. It had so much drag on the skin it was pathetic. I noticed all this as I was making up jars for all the new orders this afternoon. The former cream was rich, thick and had lots of glide. This new cream was nothing like this. I cannot sell this cream to customers. It is awful. I called the company and they gave me a song and dance about how it was the same cream. It is not even the same color. Back it goes to the company and I have to order a replacement.
What to do now with all those customers who ordered the cream? I guess I will leave it up to you. I can refund those who do not want to wait or I can replace it with the Goats Milk lotion and refund the difference. It will be at least another week until the new shipment arrives. I am sorry about this but I can't in good conscience sell an inferior product. Please let me know what you decide at thebodydessertshop@cox.net. I will also send a brief newsletter out explaining what has happened also. Again, I apologize but I know we can resolve this. Thanks for your patience.
Until next time :o)

Hello everyone!
Sorry for the newsletter delay. I wanted to get it to you by this morning but I could not work on it last night like I had planned. Our featured fragrances of the month are Wedding Cake and Strawberry Jam Puff Pastries. All products that contain these fragrances will be a $1.00 off for the month of February. I hope you enjoy them. I have been at work in my shop getting caught up. I am working on the orders from 16th of January through the 18th. I am also have some new products in the works. They will arrive shortly and I will begin testing them. Check out some of our new scents this month on the Dessert Menu as well. The Bakery one is really good and so are the BBW duplicates. I love them and I was surprised that I did.
Useless & Trivial Information
My Crystal Clear Candle order has shipped! Barb dropped me a note the other night and now I can't wait. I will review it when it arrives.
La Mer Update: OK.... I have a GIANT zit on my chin!! Sorry for too much information but holy cow! This one is a doozy ladies! You know it is large when your kid goes "Mama, what IS that?"Is it from the La Mer you ask? I hope the hell it is!!! Then my excuse for not buying this fabulous "my skin has never looked better cream except for this zit" is a really good one. That's always the best excuse isn't it? It makes me break out. I can see myself saying to someone "I can afford it...no really I can..but it made me break out". LOL..Oh well. When I have the all clear sign you know I will be trying the La Mer again. It amazing how long this speck of a sample has lasted me. :o)
It looks like Diane will be up and ready to go with those tarts by the 6th which is Monday. Go Diane! I want to know what you think. I probably won't be getting any because Diane is VERY stingy with her tarts! :o) My most favorite thing of hers was the Cocoa Body Buffer something or other scrub..It was made with real cocoa powder and smelled edible.I have one hoarded for safekeeping. Diane needs to make more of this... but just for me!!!
Speaking of hoarding..does anyone have ANY of Green Lady Soap's fragrance Cafe Noisette in soap or lotion that they would be willing to swap products with? I LOVE it and I only have a bit of the soap and a small cream left. Email me with your product request at thebodydessertshop@cox.net. I would have stocked up had I known she was going out of business. I miss you Nadia and your great soap! I know everyone else does too.
Anybody watching American Idol? I am ashamed (as well as proud to say) I have never watched it. I am not big into reality shows. I do watch House on Fox Tuesdays night and Law and Order SVU but that is about it. I did watch Six Feet Under until it ended. I am watching it with my kids for the first time. They love it. They cover their ears when someone sings off key.. it is hysterical. Last night I watched it briefly...I was in and out and I managed to catch the last guy..he had gray hair..he sounded almost like Ray Charles. He was amazing. I hope he does well. Well, I need to get dinner going and get back to work. Have a good evening!
Until next time :o)
