I am sure, if you are regular reader, that you know we got tickets to see the Panthers v Steelers game on Thursday night. You probably also know Jenn is a die-hard Steelers fan and I am a die-hard Panthers fan. We had a great time at the game! Although the final score was not all that much fun for me. On our trip to Charlotte, we took the time to stop by RJ Rockers in Spartanburg, SC and deliver the new Son of a Peach Beer Soaps. They have just moved into their new facility in Downtown Spartanburg. It is a very nice location. While there, we learned that RJ Rockers Son of a Peach beer would be available in the Wilmington area by the end of the year (stay tuned for locations). During our long drive to Charlotte via Spartanburg, Jenn and I took the time to discuss what soaps we would like to make for the fall. As is popular with game shows these days, we decided to poll the audience. We sent out a twitter message asking for fall scent suggestions. We received many responses, Thanks twitterverse! We will definitely be making a pumpkin soap (maybe pumpkin spice or punkin pie) and a gingerbread scent for fall. We got several suggestions for an apple or apple cider scent, and we will be researching & working to try to accommodate that scent. One thing I have learned since we have been making soaps is that it is not always easy to create a scent you want and keep the product all-natural. And here at Glynne’s Soaps we are committed to All Natural Soaps. We hope everyone has a peaceful and relaxing Labor Day Weekend! Be safe. Want to be a part of our studio audience?

The Super Bowl is tomorrow. We usually have a Super Bowl party! For many years we have has a Souper Bowl Party. Every family brings a pot of Soup and you end up with many different varieties, which are fun to try. There are always those (like us) who are football fans and want to watch the game. Then there are those who want to watch the commercials. Lastly, there are those who just want to come and be a part of the party. It’s a fun time! I am a Carolina Panthers fan (we came so close this year). Jenn has been a Steelers fan since she was a little girl. We were very hopeful that the season would end with our teams playing each other. Twas not to be. A few years ago when Carolina made the Super Bowl, we had a huge party. It was a great fun party. Unfortunately, at the end of the night we found that we had been successful in hosting a grand party, but not successful in doing what we enjoy…watching football! We vowed then to never have a huge party when either of our teams we in the Big Game! This year is no exception. We have invited a few friends to come watch the game. Some who will watch the game; some who will watch the commercials; and those who just want to be a part of the party. We have invited them with the understanding that we are watching the game. We will show them the kitchen, the facilities, the pool table, the foosball table or the quiet living room. They are on their own for anything else. We are Glynne’s Soaps hope you enjoy your super bowl experience. And may the best team win…GO STEELERS!! Gayle www.glynnesoaps.com
