Saturday Market

You will find us today at the downtown Anchorage Saturday Market near 3rd & E. Our booth address inside the market is 150 E Bear Blvd. In addition to our soaps and bath bliss we have Alaska Chicks Tee Shirts and crocheted child headbands... both extremely popular items! It looks like a nice Alaskan summer day and perfect for visiting the market.

Hope to see you there!

Friday Flings

One of our very favorite markets that we do is the Friday Flings in downtown Palmer. Palmer is the quintessential hometown USA and we are so very glad to be a part of the community.

Enjoy the pictures from "The Flings".

The view from the corner of our booth...see the gorgeous mountains?!

New

We have a new product! We have had so much trouble with our Body and Linen Spray containers leaking and yet our customers love wearing our scents soooo... introducing our Perfume Mists. These little beauties are easy to carry with you so now you can have a spritz or two of your favorite Gladheart scent, anywhere, anytime.

Currently we have these made up in: Lily of the Valley, White Ginger & Amber and Victorian Violets. We will be making more soon, I imagine that we will offer these in dozens of scents. They are available for the introductory price of $5 each.

Also new, is our Meditation Lotion Bar. We have made these solid moisturizing sticks for years and years and customers swear by them. They are an excellent moisturizer for those who frequently wash their hands and also for those dry, hard to reach places such as heels and elbows. We have made Meditation soap for a year or two now and are now offering the scent in our Lotion Bar. If you love earthy scents like Sandalwood, Nag Champa or Incense you will love Meditation. It is a very calming scent.

Note about picture: we tried taking this with a beautiful tealight candle holder we have that is adorned with several small crosses... but we couldn't get the lighting quite right and the full size picture looked rather 'Halloween-ish', so we cropped it and the result is above. :)

Rhubarb Muffins

Here is my annual rhubarb recipe to share. I shared the Rhubarb Dream Dessert recipe here last year and now am presenting this muffin recipe so I guess a tradition has begun at The Gladheart!

 

Rhubarb Muffins

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup vegetable oil
• 2 cups milk
• 1 tsp. vanilla
• 2 eggs
• 5 cups flour
• 1 1/3 cup sugar
• 2 TB baking powder
• 1 tsp. salt
• 4 cups thinly sliced rhubarb

Directions:

Mix on low speed the oil, milk, vanilla and eggs. Add all at once all remaining ingredients except rhubarb, mixing on low speed. Fold in rhubarb. Fill muffin tins 3/4 full, and sprinkle each top with cinnamon-sugar mixture. Bake at 375* for 17-23 minutes. Makes 3 dozen.

Enjoy with generous amounts of butter and a tall glass of iced tea.
