SAIPUA

Ran this arrangement up to Inwood this afternoon - took me three hours, but it was a nice chance to listen to radio and relax in the heat of the truck (our heat still is on the fritz). Relaxing, that is, until I heard coverage of Mitt Romney's speech from Dallas this morning. Did you know that "freedom opens the windows of the soul so that man can discover his most profound beliefs and commune with God"? How poetic! How philosophical! Come to think of it, I can't remember the last time the windows of my soul were open.

Enough sarcasm though, at the end of the day I'm in the clean business of soapmaking, not politiking. And speaking of soapmaking we're working on a new soap for release in January. Its a revamp of the old CASTILE; amped with 70% olive oil. It's going to be a 3" cube with text stamped directly onto the bar. I'm working on the packaging now and really excited. This will be a divergence from usual Saipua aesthetic, a welcome one for me - it's refreshing to try something totally new.

OK, we take off now for b-burg by b61 bus bon voyage.
