Suds to Love made me hurt my jaw

That got your attention, didn't it? Hah! But, really, Trisha of Suds to Love did make me hurt my jaw, and I'll tell you why. ;)

Trisha posted a giveaway (I try never to miss a giveaway from my soaper friends because they are the best giveaways on the Web...truly!) of which I was the winner!

I got the box in the mail a couple of days ago; I opened it expecting a couple of bars of soaps and maybe a couple of other bath and body products that Trisha makes. Instead I peer in and I see this:A box jam-packed full of these delectable goodies!! That was when my jaw hit the ground...ouch! snort!

WOW!!! Check it all out:There were:
Orange Mocha Foamy Soap
Orange Mocha Lotion Bar
Orange Mocha Foaming Sugar Scrub
2 Lip Balms: Cherry Vanilla and Ginger PeachA Bubbly Bath Bomb in French Croquembouche (which I'm going to use tomorrow in a luxurious bath)
4 Valentine Soaps in Tropical Mango, Tropical Fruit, Strawberries & Cream, and Limeand a managerie of cold-process soaps:
Green Pineapple
Wise Men
Sweet Lavender Lemon Martini
Peppermint Cocoa
Orange Mocha
Fresh Snow
Winter Wonderland
Auld Lang Syne
and TWO Crantini - Trisha remembered that my sister (the lush) and I love Crantinis, so the sweetheart sent two so that I can give one to my sister without having to share my own!

In addition to hurting my jaw, Trisha is also making me not want to be environmentally conscious because now I want to take a shower four times a day just to try all the soaps! Just teasing you, Trisha...LOL!...because you are an absolute love!! I can't thank you enough for this package!!

Heidi said...

Whoa! My jaw just hit the ground too =)

Trisha is SOOOOOO generous. And, her crantini is to die for! I have a bar that I won't use because I love it so much = )

Teresa R said...

LOL, Heidi...I'm sure Trisha will tell you what Heather keeps telling me about her cupcake soap: USE IT! ;D

Carrie said...

WOWEEEE! Now that's what I'd call a haul!

Oh you are so lucky! I just love the Valentine soaps. My jaw would hurt too. If you ever feel like you have just way too much soap, please feel free to send some on to me.....LOL

Firefly mom said...

Woman - I *swear* you are a soapaholic! There should be a 12 step program. I bet you could never buy another bar and have enough to last the rest of your life ;D

I have to ask, though: How do you decide which to use next? Is it by color? Scent? Size? Shape? Call me curious...

Theresa/GardenFreshLiving said...

You will be clean for weeks!! LOL.

Love the idea of a FOAMING sugar scrub. Let us know how that one is!

Epicure68 said...

Wow, did you win the soap jackpot? What a sweetheart Trisha is, and I will send her a proper email, but in case she's back reading, thank you for being so generous!

Teresa R said...

Thanks, ladies!

Firefly Mom, I use the "eeny-meenie-myenie-mo" method...LOL! No, actually, I go by mood, and I do try to use the oldest soaps first because apparently they don't last forever. :>

Also, dh is fussy, so I try to give him the least scented ones or the fruity scented ones to use.

Teri said...

Man, that is a lot of stuff. Congrats on your soapy win!

Navita said...

Oh my my look at the winner and the prize....those look err...gorgeous!
