*Blush* Sending a huge Thank You to Trish for her wonderful prize also.

* For anyone who has not tried Trish's products I can say from experience that they are A+. I've purchased her soaps as well as candles, dish cloths, linen spray, hand balm ... they are all of the highest quality and the fragrances of the soaps and candles are awesome!

That's interesting. Well, if we end up not having enough for the week, I bet people wouldn't mind if we "re-ran" this one.
