into the woods...

 I was able to take Elle for a walk today, at the park that we went to last winter. What I love most about that park is all the evergreens... it just smells so good-- of pine needles and pine cones. I love the anticipation of autumn too. I think we will get rain all weekend again, though, so I hope we have some leaves left on the trees to change colors eventually!

Here is what I see every time I pull into the driveway... beautiful dots of color in my zinnia bed:

I wanted to share a company I found recently-- Pleasant River Soap Co. out of Maine. The soaps smell sooo good... especially this one. Listen to the ingredients: Olive, Coconut & Palm oils (SO good for your skin!), avocado oil, vitamin E, essential oils of black spruce and fir & dried dill. And the packaging immediately won me over! They have lots of other scents too...

And I got their lip balm in Lime...Avocado oil, shea butter, honey and essential oils! It is wonderful. Of course they sell more flavors of this too...

My computer was not online today which made me {slightly} frustrated, to say the least. But I did manage to spend about five hours designing labels. I'm not sure it looks as if I spent five hours but there you go. This weekend is Labor Day Weekend so everyone here is looking forward to sleeping late tomorrow morning and maybe we'll head to the Lancaster Art and Craft Show (if it doesn't rain!). It's also a big weekend-- 19 years. Time definitely flies!

Hope you have a wonderful weekend!!!
