First, let me please say that with the current unsettled climate that surrounds us, I'm leaning towards prayer and hope, and I feel blessed to have the freedom to share both whenever I can. I try not to take anything for granted, and to be thankful for the good and the bad that fill my days as it teaches me to overcome and remain strong in my faith. Just always remember, everyone is going through something, and it's not us to judge. We often do, simply because we are human. We live our lives learning as we go along, and if you're lucky, you realize how short life is, and appreciate all that it brings. I find it superficial to browse through social media pages and pretend that all is well when it's not. It's not a time of worry or fear for me because of my faith, and I'm forever grateful and thankful for both. My life, the way that I operate my business are centered around those thoughts. There is hope, and there is God... Turn that around.
With that said, I'm digging knee-deep into my work. Having the luxury of melting myself into botanicals and fragrances has and always will be a gift. One spring officially arrives I'll begin to dig and cultivate and nurture. There's something peaceful about gardening or tending to a garden. I can't wait! Those feelings wrap around each new spring, and the anticipation grows by the day.
We received our shipments of garments this week, and I'm blown away by those tangerine trousers!
I believe our Lip Balm inventory is well stocked and up to date, and that Lavender Honey flavor is the bomb! It's a toss-up between, Orange Vanilla and Lavender Honey. Honestly, you can't go wrong with either.
Let me say a few great things about Dry Oil. It's amazing! If you're searching for a moisturizer, your search is over. It's a perk that you're able to choose a scent to flavor your liquid gold. We are finding that the notion of scenting your own skin essentials is catching on. We enjoy helping you create a signature blend. It's our thing!
I seldom have time on Saturday for new posts, but I'm all caught up and thought I'd switch it up with a fresh Saturday update.
The Apothecary shop is flourishing and eager for this fresh new season to arrive. We're excited to celebrate our birthday next month, and even more excited to share year twenty-five! That boggles my mind! So much has happened in twenty-five years. For one thing, I'm older. Hopefully wiser, and kind of stuck in my ways. I don't consider that to be a bad thing.
Peace be with you, always.
