Well, we had a mini-disaster over the weekend. Three hours after close on Saturday night, the ceiling collapsed into the “soap half” of the store, dumping dust and wet insulation all over the place, and setting off the security alarm. (It’s good to know the alarm works so well!)
It’s a bit of a setback, since we are operating in half the space and without conveniences like internet and storage space, but things could be worse. Thanks to the amazing work of Guarantee System, who packed up and carted away anything touched by so much as a speck of dust, we’ve barely lifted a finger to clean up the mess at our own store. I’m completely blown away by how amazing these guys and gals are! Today our product has been returned to us, sparkling clean, wrapped and packed gently in carefully and accurately labeled boxes. We may have to wait another week or two before the roof & ceiling are repaired and we can move back into the other half of the store, but in the meantime, our products have been given a spring cleaning that we would never have had the energy to accomplish. The glass jars and bottles have never looked so good!

I couldn’t be happier with these people. I want to hug each and every last one of them! I want to throw them a barbecue. They have made a situation that could have been nail-biting and ulcer-inducing into a minor hitch.
Stop in and visit us. Don’t despair if we look “out of business” when you drive by. We aren’t! We are open. Stop in and support us if you get a chance.
