July!

Happy July, babycakes!
I hope everyone is having a nice summer so far!
The scent-of-the-month for July is a minty combo of peppermint and spearmint!
It's cooling and lightly scented, making it (at least *I* think so) a nice choice for hot summer nights!

Some other summer housekeeping...
It's hot out there, babycakes.
Like REALLY hot.
Drippy, outside-kid-smell hot.
I do my best to take these packages to the post office late in the day on Monday or Tuesdays only, that way they get sorted immediately and go out that night, and shipping priority, get to you in 3 days or less.
But that's still three days.
In the drippy, outside-kid-smell heat.
I am letting you know, your babycakes may melt.
Mine did.
Of course I left it on the deck...
but that's another story.

Here are your choices when that happens:
1. Use it solid. It's harder to scoop out, but it melts in your hands like always.
2. Pour the melted stuff into a small bowl and whip with a hand mixer, then scoop it back into the jar! There is always some stuck in the bowl and stuck to the beaters, so line up the kids and lotion them up from the bowl!

On another note...
Yes, it's true!
I'm experimenting with some additional products! Yay!
I've made two versions of a detangler, two versions of a light-hold gel, and I'm working on a body wash... all natural, all highest-quality ingredients I can find.
Here's my thing.
I don't want the products to be "really good... for all-natural!"
I want them to be really good for ANY comparison purposes!
Right now, I think we are at the "...for all-natural" level.
I will let you know what I think after this weekend...
I have several local families testing my 4 current samples and taking notes for me on what works, what they like and don't like, etc.

While I'm at it...
any other products you'd like to have?

Stay cool, babycakes!
