PLEASE OBEY GOV. COOPER'S MANDATE TO WEAR MASKS AND TO OBSERVE SOCIAL DISTANCING

We are so very sad to have heard of the passing of our long time vendor, Bridgette Patrovsky, affectionately known as The Soap Nerd. Bridgette was a ray of sunshine to us and to her many customers. She always wore a big smile to top her bubbly personality. Bridgette made all of her many products in her home-lab from all-natural products and was meticulous in their preparation and packaging. Bridget had a very generous spirit, evidenced to us by her donation of gallons of hand sanitizer when hand sanitizer couldn’t be found anywhere. We will truly miss our friend, Bridget, The Soap Nerd.

May she rest in peace.
