Spoiled Zoe

Good Morning!

I've recently been letting my cats outside during the day. The oldest one is about 3.5 years old and has always been an inside cat (she was a stray). The youngest is a little over a year old and was also a stray. She followed me and my BF home one day while we were out for a walk lol. So, we kept her! She's SO cute! I will have to get a picture of her. Back to my main point...I let the cats out this morning with the dog and the youngest kitty, Zoe, doesn't stay out very long. She sits on the back steps and meows until I let her back in.
Well, I'm in the kitchen on my laptop (my mom had borrowed it and I got it back yesterday and it just hasn't made it back to the office yet lol) and Zoe was just meowing away in the living room. We have a baby gate up to try to deter the animals from coming into the kitchen. Notice I said "try". The cats always come in here anyway. So, Zoe finally jumps the gate and is just meowing and walking around the kitchen. She jumps up onto the barstool behind me and reaches out and touches my back with her paw. Too cute right? I pick her up and put her in my lap and she's been laying/sleeping here now for about 45 minutes lol. Quite as a mouse too. She's so spoiled.

I stopped by Happy Cow Creamery yesterday with my mom. She wanted to pick up a few things. Well, come to find out, they've sold out of my Lip Balm! They need some asap! I told them as soon as my supplies come in, I'd get some whipped up. I'm also going to be designing a new custom label for it :) I'm still working on it but will post pictures when I'm done.

Found a photo of Zoe. This was when we first got her. She's still just as cute though :P

Lip Balm Display Case & Bath Salts

I had a blast at the Red, White, and Blue Festival yesterday in downtown Greenville! My friend's band, Lionz of Zion, went on at 5:30 and rocked until 7:00. They put on a good show as always!

And of course, I was there selling my Lionz of Zion Lip Balm! My awesome BF even whipped me up a display case! Now I don't have to put my lip balm in my cute little casserole dishes :P I think one lady wanted to buy my dishes at the last show! Haha!










Today I made a batch of Relaxing Vanilla & Lavender bath salts! I need to tweak the recipe just a little but they are very nice!






Lie to Me was a rerun tonight :( And next Tuesday baseball is going to be on in the Hell's Kitchen time slot. I'm very upset about that. That is one of my favorite shows. Although I can't wait for MasterChef! I'm so excited!

Well, bedtime is approaching! G'night!

I Love Ordering Supplies!

Hello Everyone!

Today I had to place another supplies order. That's a good feeling to me. I'm completely out of beeswax! I had to replenish my lip balm inventory for the Lionz of Zion show this Sunday, July 4th in downtown Greenville. I'm really hoping to get some sales!

I ordered some shrink tubes for my lip balm. This way, my customers know that the tubes are securely sealed :) I'm hoping I ordered the right one though. I wanted the full tube seal that you just peel the cap part off, leaving the rest on the tube to protect the label.

I also ordered some new lip balm flavor oils!

Coconut Milk & Peach:








And Sugared Strawberries!








I can't wait to try these out!


My order came with two free 1oz. fragrance oils of my choice, too. What a surprise that was! I tried to pick a couple of good ones for my soaps that I'm wanting to make.

I'm pretty excited!

Well, time to get changed and go run some errands!
