Hall & Oats-n-Honey

Today, I'm offering a peek into the creation of Hall & Oats-n-Honey Soap. This is the most gentle soap I make. It's unscented and uses the most simple, basic ingredients one can find at a grocery store: organic coconut milk, oats, and honey (you could even use olive oil from the store as your soap… Continue reading Hall & Oats-n-Honey

A ripe weekend ahead

This weekend = me, you, and some large, tasty, juicy, ripe, delicious, scrumtrulecent tomatoes. Maybe we could wear matching tomato costumes and lose ourselves in the moment? Perhaps do some juggling? Let's do it! I know you want to. The Saugerties Farmers Market is hosting their annual tomato taste-off. Awesome prizes will be given for… Continue reading A ripe weekend ahead

More market action to be had.

I will be at the Saugerties Farmers Market tomorrow for your shopping pleasure, from 10 am to 2 pm. My usual sales will be in full effect.

The Treehouse: A Post to Drool Over

I'm in the process of spring cleaning everything, including my computer files, and came across these pictures I totally spaced on sharing. Doh! I took these a few months ago when Kathy (the wonderful owner of The Treehouse) allowed me to work in her store for the day. I've never wanted to work somewhere so… Continue reading The Treehouse: A Post to Drool Over
