Pumpkin Pie

Nature's Edge Farm, Pumpkin Pie soap, $4

I just realized that Thanksgiving is exactly one week away. This time next week I should be enjoying a slice of pumpkin pie with a cup of coffee.

My favorite soap shop sells a to die for, calorie free version of that traditional Thanksgiving dessert. John from Nature's Edge Farm makes a Pumpkin Pie Soap that not only smells amazing, but is stunningly beautiful.

Why not order a bar to take as a hostess gift next Thursday. Your host or hostess may just slip you an extra piece of pumpkin pie to thank you for your thoughtfulness!

Have a lovely afternoon,
Deanna

What you'll find in my corner of the blogosphere

The primary reason I started this blog was to rave about the BEST handmade shops I know of. I have a great deal of respect for handmade artisans. In this era of big box stores, seeing an independently owned, handmade shop succeed is all too rare!

Here you'll find me showing off the pretty items I see on my many Etsy "window shopping" excursions. I'll also shine a spotlight on the goods of local handmade artisans who share my greenish views as well.

Please note that I do NOT get paid to blog about these shops or products! I blog to spread the word about the handmade movement in America. On a selfish note, I hope that by promoting them, these shops can continue to thrive and I can continue to shop with them! I jokingly refer to my love of shopping by saying it's, "how I stimulate the economy one purchase at a time"!

You will also find greenish tips, a few recipes, some gratuitous puppy pictures, monthly giveaways and whatever else I think may pique your interest!
