I really, really love homemade soap, so recently I ordered a lavender bath bar from Birch Bark Soap. I have been drooling over this soap ever since I stumbled upon Sherries blog twenty-two pleasant, and learned that she is a soapmaker from Nova Scotia (my new favourite province)!
I was pretty excited about receiving this little treat, checking the mail box every single day for it's arrival. Lucky me, today was the day! It couldn't have come on a better day either. I had a pretty terrible morning, so nothing was better than opening a mailbox that was filled with the smell of lavender!
I was also surprised to see that Sherrie also threw in a (large!) sample of her carrot complexion soap, accompanied by a really lovely thank you card. Seriously, I have so much love and affinity for this soap right now - It's so beautifully fragrant and soothing - I can't wait to use it! After such a crummy start to the day I definitely needed the pick me up.
Thank you, Sherrie!

ReplyDeleteI'm so glad that it made your day, and thanks for all of your kind words. :) Enjoy! (And anytime you're in your favourite province, look me up! :))
ReplyDeleteHave a look at that new cheese store in Locke sometime! They have a selection of handmade soaps in addition to a bunch of jams, jellies and other things that aren't cheese. Definitely worth checking out.
