“ Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. “ ~Phillipians 4:8

Overdue Update

:::drumroll:::

My last post here was October 18th, so it is necessary to have a wee bit of fanfare to introduce this long overdue update post.

During the busyness of the holiday season; the making soap, lotion and etc, packing, attending and unpacking from shows, shopkeeping, decorating, buying and wrapping gifts, etc. as well as normal family life, the blog just kind of got lost. I am sorry. It was harder than I expected to get back on track with it.

Again I am sorry.

But I am going to adhere to the old adage: …try, try again.

Thank you for being here.

So, the update of the last few months, in pictures…

Our place at Cranberry Cottage

And that brings us about up to date. We don’t have lots of pictures to share with you, especially the ones of winter flus, SNOW and MORE SNOW, vehicles stuck due to said snow, etc. Winter this year was not glamorous, it was HARD…and while I think it is important to chronicle real life, many times this past winter pictures were the last thing on our minds…

BUT

… my family gave me a new camera which I am busy playing with… On Tuesday I will share some of those efforts with you.

*BLESSINGS*

Fall Fun Shopping

It's a perfect fall day to come into Cranberry Cottage!

Upstairs is full of wonderful things, come read all the signs for sale, we have them for every style... and Liz has now brought in bagged candy, including flavored almonds in 6 flavors and 3 kinds of chocolate espresso beans...yum!

The newest patterns of Vera Bradley are in & with a $50 VB purchase, you receive a free gift. And I *love* the new Vera scarves in knit fabric!

As the weather cools down, take a warm bath in our "scoop your own bath salts", we have 12 scents to choose from. And the soap baskets are full!
