I love to travel. I love home, too – my bed, my cats, my own kitchen. But with being home so much, I really welcome the opportunity to get away, to see new sites, new parts of the state, or even to have that moment of seeing a familiar site in a new way. Whether it’s a day trip, a weekender or a major vacation, I like exploring.
Our last family trip was a weekender in December to Beaufort, NC. It’s an absolutely lovely little coastal town, and the people in that area are just so friendly, too. In fact, I was driving through the town leading to Beaufort when one of the police officers pulled me over and issued a personal invitation for me to return to Beaufort next week, actually. Well, he issued me a speeding ticket, but he was really nice about it. Since getting that ticket, I learned that one of the pilots on the ill-fated space shuttle Challenger was from Beaufort, and as many times as I’ve been in that town, I’ve never paid attention to the memorial to him. I’m going to go check that out next week after I’m done at the courthouse. I have a friend with a shop in Beaufort, so I’ll stop in and see her, too.
Of course, with all this traveling, I absolutely MUST have good soap with which to bathe, so I always take a small bar of my own soap just in case my only other option is the dreaded “deodorant bar.” Thanks to my mother-in-law, I decided it’s time to make these small travel-sized soaps available to my customers, too. My soaps want to travel! They want to see the sights! They want to travel the world! Will you give them this opportunity?

These lovely little gems will be ready to own by the very end of February, and they will be ready for you to tuck into your travel bag and take with you as you hit the road this Spring and Summer. As you travel, I invite you to take pics of your soap and you and email them to me (please, no naked pics) to be featured in an upcoming blog post. Let’s see where these soaps find themselves.
Where will your travels take you this year?
