Hello all! it has been awhile. Months at least. I just wanted to post a quick update and some business news. First, we have a new addition to our family. I had forgotten how much work a puppy can be since we have not had one in 2 years. Mr. Precious is fun but I can't wait until he stops chewing and digging holes in the dirt! Now we have 2 dogs! My kids turned 7 on April 3rd! Happy Birthday Christian & Grace.

Business News

The Body Dessert Shop will now be closed on Wednesdays and Thursdays. Most of you know I have been going to school for a Master's degree for Marriage and Family Therapy. I am at the point in my degree where I actually go out into the field and practice. It is called a practicum. It means hands on experience. I am doing my practicum on Wed-Thurs each week until October, 2007 at Interfaith Community Services. I will be working as a trainee in the family housing program. I will help council and assess individuals who are in need of public assistance and housing Here is a link if you are interested:http://www.interfaithservices.org/nchousing.html

I will not be able to answer emails until I get home in the evening on both days.

Summer Hours

Our summer hours will be pretty much the same as above. I will be available for answering questions and processing orders on Monday,Tuesday and Friday. I will be discontinuing the heavier products such as butters and the heavier creams etc. because of the melt factor for the summer months. I WILL have a helper this summer as well! You go Jessica! I will carry the following products for the summer months: Goats Milk & Shea Lotion, Perfume (both sizes) and Body Mist. I will also offer tarts on a limited basis and of course my new Cold Process soaps will still be offered. I will start offering only these products at the end of June. Our complete product line will be available again on September 5th, 2007.

I just mailed out a bunch of orders with tarts and CP soap! I hope everyone likes them. I will be offering more tart scents soon.

I will write more later! My goal is to keep up this blog writing at least once per week.

Until next time
