September’s Soapscription Debut

We’ve already packaged up more than half of our inventory for delivery with the shop being live for only three days. We are thankful and humbled over here for sure. As I’m looking at the order forms and waiting for the regional rate boxes to arrive, (who knew shipping was so streamlined these days with exact boxes to use???!!!-not me) I realized that I haven’t publicly disclosed what bars are in September’s boxes. Our first soapscription boxes. Our debut… our original… us getting our feet wet… our giant leap of faith… Too late to regret. One step at a time. One bite at a time.

Those are my little friendly reminders/pep talks/just keep swimming/etc.

So, without further ado- the soaps that have been curing for weeks and months- the soaps that are completely inspired by what’s been growing around our home all summer long- the soaps that i’m finally excited to put in other households and the soaps that I might look back at in a couple of years and think- wow… that was quite a beginning.

LAVENDER/SAGE

CEDARWOOD/ROSE

LEMONGRASS/EUCALYPTUS

ROSEMARY/GRAPEFRUIT

LEMON/THYME

They’ve got botanicals from our yard, tallow that I’ve rendered from our neighbor’s farms, essential oils derived from the same varieties of plants that we grow, organic and gmo-free oils and beautiful clays from companies that we trust. There is a lot of learning and a whole lot more love in every batch. I see improvements already in the December soaps that I’ve started making but most of all- they’re unique, beautiful and deliciously unrefined.

XO.

I immediately pictured cheese and olives and the gorgeous comb on a platter. Surely some fancy restaurant or boutique has a better…

    I ran my first race last Saturday. The only time I’d ever run 3 miles without stopping before Saturday was on the Wednesday beforehand when I ran the course with some friends. My time was 28min 58sec, which doesn’t mean a whole lot to me, because I’m just so thankful that I ran the course…

    Last week we celebrated Bullfrog’s birthday. He turned 5. It’s crazy to celebrate 5 years of his life when the memories of his birth are still so vivid. He’s growing up. Oh boy. On Wednesday his Opa came over and took him out for  lunch. Wednesday night he had a milkshake with Andy after Awana….

    I’m terrible about remembering dates and celebrating special occasions. One of my goals this year (I have a few and I just found my notebook with some passwords/logins since I forgot the blog log-in and rediscovered the goals I wrote down at the beginning of the year) was to make much ado about special occasions….
