As with most soap-makers, they began making soap as a hobby. They soon realized, however, that together they had created a product that everyone loved! &#xa;&#xa;On this blog we will post our news and show dates only.

I recently came across a website selling gris-gris bags.  The gris-gris became traditional in New Orleans where they were used for various things such as attracting money and love, stopping gossip, protecting your home, maintaining good health and achieving just about anything you are in need of.  A gris-gris is ritually made at an altar containing the four elements of earth, air, water and fire.  The number of ingredients placed in the gris-gris is always one, three, five, seven, nine, or thirteen--never an even number or more than thirteen.  Stones and colored objects are chosen for their occult and astrological meanings corresponding to the purpose for which the gris-gris is to be used.  Perhaps we will be inspired to make a gris-gris soap reminiscent of our trip to the &quot;Big Easy&quot;...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Speaking of November, the holidays are right around the corner!  We are busy making batches and batches of soap for the upcoming holidays.  If you have a special scent request, or an extra large order that you&#39;d like to place for the holidays, please be sure to get those orders in by the end of October so that we will have time to make them.  Soaps are the perfect gift for teachers, stocking stuffers, hostess gifts or any special occasion.  Our limited edition Pumpkin Spice Bars and O&#39;Tannenbaum Bars are great for the holidays and, if you are in winter denial like I am, our new Mojito Bars can whisk you back to those carefree days of summer.  If you still can&#39;t decide which soap to choose, our Soap of the Month Club is the perfect solution!  Check out our website club page: &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.sistersoapco.com/club/&quot;&gt;http://www.sistersoapco.com/club/&lt;/a&gt; for more details.&lt;/strong&gt;</description><link>http://sister-soap.blogspot.com/2009/10/laissez-les-bon-temps-roulez.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (SisterSoapCompany)</author><thr:total>1</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6459294383988570792.post-163572129355059160</guid><pubDate>Sun, 20 Sep 2009 16:48:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2009-09-20T09:56:55.907-07:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">fall</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">san luis obispo</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">sister soap</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">soap</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">trade show</category><title>Pumpkin Perfection!</title><description>&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixX_1T8MRx7G_8vH1s7ddJjZKYgOGehkBzmvIJTbl4dubexC_-WVJy0rXdmnbYto6PmfOmbX45oeL3BLhrM5okCA-iDNIQWU7F5FrtIDXI9To0CQ7_soL8DJiI0a3i6Vp8OFcsMMg2EHI/s1600-h/pumpkin+photo.JPG&quot;&gt;&lt;img style=&quot;TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 298px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand&quot; id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5383592794256284706&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixX_1T8MRx7G_8vH1s7ddJjZKYgOGehkBzmvIJTbl4dubexC_-WVJy0rXdmnbYto6PmfOmbX45oeL3BLhrM5okCA-iDNIQWU7F5FrtIDXI9To0CQ7_soL8DJiI0a3i6Vp8OFcsMMg2EHI/s320/pumpkin+photo.JPG&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Pumpkin Spice Bars&lt;/strong&gt; contain organic pumpkin puree, which is a natural anti-oxidant, to nourish &amp;amp; purify the skin.

However....the recent heat wave in the Central Coast (104 degrees--and remember, most of us don&#39;t have air conditioning!) made us think that summer had finally arrived! And then, just for a bit more confusion, all of the stores are suddenly adorned with Christmas and Hanakkuh decor! I&#39;m sure you can understand our surprise when we realized it was time to get going on making our Pumpkin Spice Bars!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Pumpkin Spice Bars&lt;/strong&gt; contain organic pumpkin puree, which is a natural anti-oxidant, to nourish &amp;amp; purify the skin.
