Strawberry Festival at Jubelt's Bakery May 16th & 17th

Yes, Green Goddess will have a soap vending table at Jubelt's on Sat 5/16 and Sun 5/17 on Route 66 in Litchfield, as well as having a booth on Sat 5/16 at the Earth Day Event 2009 at the Litchfield Community Center!

We'll be featuring a special edition bar At the Earth Day Event, the proceeds of which will go to Adopt-A-Pet Shelter. The focus there will be on our Botanical Soap line, made with herbs, essential oils and plant extracts. Carrotseed Soap, TomatoBasil Soap. RoseHip Soap, Ginko Soap and more.

At Jubelt's we will be featuring our well-loved "Berry Delightful Whipped Soap", which is a dollop of whipped soap, filled with soap strawberries, raspberries and blackberries, and drizzled with strawberry soap syrup!! It's been by far the most popular soap we have ever made. Of course, we'll also feature a well-rounded selection of our Botanical, Vegan and assorted Fragranced soaps as well. If you're local, make sure to stop by one or the other or BOTH!

Missing old friends

Well folks, I finally broke down and got myself a Facebook page. So that means I'm on Twitter, Facebook, MySpace, Yahoo 360, Mobile texting and Google Blogger, as well as developing my GreenGoddess website. Guess you could say I'm connected enough for now. But there are so many friends I've lost touch with over the years, it's been difficult trying to find them all. Alas, I am shaking myself out of my reverie and back to the present where a lot of luxurious oils and butters are calling to me, telling me that I need to make them into some wonderful new soaps!

May 16th Earth Day Festival in Litchfield

It's planned for a bit after Earth Day, but better late than not at all. The Green Goddess will have a vendor booth at the festivities at the Community Center in downtown Litchfield, IL on May 16th. Specific hours will be announced soon, but we expect to be there all day. LOTS of fun activities and events going on so be there to celebrate with us! We'll post a list of other businesses/activities that day as we find out more about them and what they have up their sleeves for this special day!

We have made up many new Spring soaps and other items, so be sure to stop by our booth! We're also creating a super-special Earth Day Soap and plan to donate a hefty portion of each bar's sale for our feline friends at our local Adopt A Pet Shelter. Drop us a line or give us a call if you have any questions or special requests. Happy Earthday :)

Blooming Magnolias and other Inspirational Signs of Spring

I just adore this time of year, when the magnolia trees start to blossom and you can smell the flowers instead of just the wet dirt. I have daffodils coming up in the front yard, and many new plants started in the house that are almost ready to be hardened off outside. Thankfully, my neighbor has a lilac bush, as I do not, and I'm looking forward to getting a sniffer full of that delicious odor. I'm having hubby upload this blog while I'm away, so I can get a pic of the pretty new Lilac soap up. Cheers to Spring everybody!
