Long time no post



Its Tuesday and I did not do my Sandy Hook Farmers Market today. The bathrooms are far and being a women today would not have been good;). However I did make some cupcake bath bombs which came out cute. This pic does not do them justice. Although i could use some frosting schooling.They smell yummy. I used Vanilla Frosting fragrance, pink color and mixed Jojoba beads for sprinkles. I burned out one mixer so in the middle of it had to go get another one. I might make some more later , now that I got it down. I wanna make a orange scent one. Its funny how summer makes you crave juicy things.

This past weekend Greg played at the Rock Fest in Woodbury. It was cool. It could have been great but the owner was charging $35 a day to be there, $10 for burgers and $10 to park. That is crazy amount of money so needless to say it was dead. I bought a shell hemp anklet from the one vendor set up there. One because I can copy the design and two because I felt horrible because they made nothing all weekend. It was $250 a spot. I can relate to that.
I am making Portabella Mushrooms for dinner with sweet potato fries(kinda). Its late but Greg was stuck at work, so I wait. He is taking off tomorrow and we might go to the beach. I loved going to the beach when we lived in Florida. I have been here five years and have never went to the CT beaches. Truthfully have no desire. I like blue water and seashells. I wont go in water I cant see what I am swimming in haha. I sure do miss the beaches down south. We used to go and hang out . Jordan would play in the sand for hours. I love a good ocean breeze. Hopefully Aruba will be like that in October.
I have been doing really good at my markets this year. I am glad people love my stuff. My lip balm is the big thing this year. I just made some 100% natural lip balm using essential oils. I made a Lavender & Blood Orange, Vanilla, Spearmint & Pink Grapefruit. I have some other oils I wanna try to. I also got some Cinnamon Bark oil so I can make cinnamon toothpicks like we did in the 80's . I may even sell them in rolled aluminum foil haha. 5 for .25 . I also made some Salt Scrubs & Dry Oil Body Mist.
