Working in the background

I am lurking on the website this week as promised. It’s still frustrating to me how well I can mess up loading pictures to the site so that is high on the list to fix this week in addition to getting back into the swing of our blog after my absence. Hopefully, I’ll be able to get all of these pictures I’m staring at out where you can enjoy too! Cross fingers for me and it’s ok to laugh at me breaking this site- I laugh the hardest sometimes. Luckily, I don’t plan to try to make a living by computer work 🙂 Although I might totally rock at computer & website demolition, actually……

As mentioned before, we were at the Houston Beer Festival this past weekend. We had a blast and met a ton of great people. Always enjoy getting out there with you guys, Houston, and this was a great time! I must send a shout out to Maximus, one of our local bands, for some great music too. You made even this pathetic dancer start moving and grooving with those songs! Keep it up boys! Here are the only two shots hubby managed to get of the festival for us. The white tent you can barely see with the Beer Soap sign (thanks again Bob!) is ours and the second picture is from the back of the tent looking out. Angie’s Bits o’Glass is there on the left and my pasty white legs are on our side to the right in this picture. (Angie, forgive me for posting your butt online without warning lol) It was a very busy but fun day for us. We thank you again everyone for such a great time. And some new jokes for me- hooray!

I must now go back to my behind the scenes work and try to load pictures around soaping sessions. This week I’m making more of our Texas Suds Beer Soaps, another round of plain pioneer soap, and some of the Honeysuckle too. I’m plotting the Ginger Peach bars but pushed them back a few days so I could make sure I can get the colors I’m shooting for. More details later and I hope these pictures cooperate with me. See you around the website!

Happy Washing!

Houston Beer Festival was a blast!

Yesterday we spent the day in downtown Houston for the 3rd annual Houston Beer Festival. It was a complete blast! Hubby and I would like to say thank you again to all of you who stopped by and hung out with us there. We really had a great time talking with you all about both soap and beer 🙂 I will start cutting the remaining soap log of Texas Suds made with the Rodeo Clown beer as promised tomorrow morning so that everyone can get their reserved bars. More updates to come to the blog this week as I play catch up here on the website finally but today’s post shall be short, I’m afraid. I promised to take some time off today and spend it with the family (and recuperate- I’m tired lol) so I must sign out now. To our family, friends, and associates who have supported us during our personal losses these last few months, I thank you again also. We are getting back to normal and greatly appreciate your support.

Happy Washing!
Dorothy & the Team
