Yearly Archives: 2011

I know that I’ve been missing from the blog recently and that I haven’t made anything in at least three weeks! 😳 This is actually very embarrassing to admit the fact that I haven’t touched a scale, beaker, or immersion blender for so long. When I was in New York […]

I’m so excited to announce that we have a special sale for one week! I asked if we could have a special that would give a bonus to our wonderful customers. Imagine my surprise when I was given not one special, but two! Now these specials are only available for […]

Not long ago, I made the Fluffy Body Powder. I have had some time to contemplate the recipe and what I thought about it. I really liked it but I think I used too much Natrasorb for my preference. The Natrasorb has really big particles which lend a slight texture. […]

Chocolate is a fantastic flavor. Did you know that chocolate is the world’s second most popular flavor? (Right after vanilla.) I decided that this week I also wanted to make a Chocolate Lip Gloss. I think we have a themed week here. Yay for chocolate! Come join me in the […]

Four weeks ago I shared some cute pictures of Sadie after playing and since then, my e-mail has been bombarded with requests for more pictures. She is now two months old and I have been constantly amazed by Sadie’s antics and her new tricks. She moves so fast, I only […]

When I was in school, growing up here in Cache Valley, we would always cover some part of the valley’s history. Some of the stories I have not been able to forget. Ask any local here the story of Old Ephraim and you will be sat down to hear this […]

Today is Memorial Day and it turns out to be a perfect day to visit the Statue of Liberty. I took these pictures while visiting Liberty Island earlier today. It is amazing to stand on the ground and look upon a statue. I feel so small looking up, but I […]

Sometimes I get inspiration from collecting all of the ingredients for another project. When I made Lorraine’s Vanilla Coconut Passion Lotion I had to look through the fragrance collection in the blog kitchen. As I searched for the Vanilla Cream Fragrance Oil, I ran across a 1 oz bottle of […]

The other day I was needed on the Order Desk to take a phone order. I had a lovely conversation with Lorraine. She is a big fan of Victoria’s Secret Vanilla Coconut Passion Lotion but they discontinued it! She had gone through our catalog and found the several Vanilla scents […]
