Confessions of slacking

It's been over two weeks since I last updated, so I'm kicking myself for not being persistent. I can't be too hard on myself considering the mega amounts or productivity that has happened in the meantime.

While excuses are lame, I have been quite busy fundraising and preparing for a trip into the desert. This will be my first year ever going to Burning Man, and I'm quite stoked about all the projects our camp has planned.

I have fallen in with the Texas Souk camp, which is a collaboration of other CORE camps within Texas. To give some background on the Souk project, check out http://souk.burningman.com/.

The Texas Souk is themed around the five senses. As mentioned in my last post, my gifts are massage bars made of cocoa butter, shea butter, beeswax, and essential oils. To date, I've made over 300 of them each the size of an ice cube. I'm so excited to share these!



On the fundraising front, our camp threw a benefit Little Black Dress party that performed exceptionally well. I have nothing but deep appreciation for everyone who contributed time, talents, funds, and other donations to the event.
