And the winner is...
June 17, 2008
I'm sheepishly announcing that my mom won the prize, no favoritism, I promise!
Yesterday I wrote all the names on pieces of paper and Brienne (a non-reader) drew out the winner's name. Mom, this is kind of convenient considering your birthday is coming up. Now I can just send you the winning soap instead! Just joking (maybe).
Perhaps I wasn't clear in the original post but the winner of the soap isn't necessarily the name I'm choosing. I was using the soap as an incentive for some creative contributions and did I ever get some - thanks, you guys are great.
I have to say being a huge Johnny Cash fan I am partial to Orange Blossom Special, but I've decided to save that for a more orangey scented soap. Thanks Cindy for that great idea, by the way were you trying to increase your winning chances by posting three times?? I'm sure you're innocent of any wrong motives (wink, wink).
For those of you who don't know Cindy you can check out Harvest Hands Blog, the ministry she and her husband serve with in Los Anonos, Costa Rica. Great friends who we miss much since they have moved to Costa Rica.
So anyway what is the soap name I choose from all your creative entries? Sorry Rich, wasn't yours but I got a good laugh! Oh man, this was hard but I'm a blossom sort of gal, especially in this season and so the winner is Orange Lavender Blossom</i> by my sis-in-law Amanda.
Thanks everyone for having some fun with me on this!

Yippee! As yummy as your soaps look in your photos, I enjoy using them even more! Thank you, Brienne, for picking the paper with my name on it. And thanks for the great birthday gift - some of your bathing-body-massage in a bar!
