Anyone know who the actor is staying at the bridgewater hospital. An older white gentleman with a beard who has the girls going gaga over him.

It's the little things that count...hundreds of them! Quite literally.
The little things that make great souvenirs are something that we make by the hundreds for our stores.
Years ago I had a cruise ship tourist looking for something cheap to get for her neighbour back home. I showed her a few things, working down the price list, until we got to a bookmark. I was beginning to think that she didn't actually want to buy anything for her neighbour. Her husband was telling her to "Just buy something.". She wanted a "better" (better for her) price. I picked up a pair of scissors and asked her to hand me the bookmark. "I'll give you a 50% discount but I am going to have to cut it in half", says I.
Her husband grabs the bookmark back from me. "For Christ's sake, Martha! Just buy the bookmark!"

I'm bored and getting antsy. I have to do something so am going to make SOAP. First on the list is some Bay Rum soaps for a friend. Anyone else want some. Let me know ASAP.
Actually I'm up to making any soap for my Lilleypadders and others. Do you have a favourite scent or even unscented ones. Let me know and I'll get right on it. As I mentioned - I'M BORED. lol.

Helloooooo my fellow Lilley Padders.
I apologize for not being around or posting the past several months. I am dealing with a couple of health issues and I'm tired of letting them 'rule' my world.
So here goes. I haven't made anything for a while but I do have an extensive supply of melts/bars made up.
Let's get this going again with a sale. The list is pretty much up to date.
Let's keep this old candle maker working hard and enjoying talking to my customers. I miss you all. Even a Hi would be nice.
Catch you later and hope you see some scents you would like to buy.
