TIM'S CLAIM TO FAME

I was checking Facebook on Thursday and noticed a friend was having a contest. Her name is Michelle and she makes soaps, lotions, bath products, etc. She was looking for a name for a new soap, one designed for major grime, as from fixing cars or spending all day in the garden. I came up with a few ideas, then had the three male Ws contribute more that evening.

Well, guess what? Tim won the contest!! I don't think he's ever won a contest, so this was a true milestone in his life. The prize was a bar of the new soap.

Before I show you the pics, I want you know how to order Michelle's products. You can go straight to The Custom Soap Shop website or become a fan on Facebook. She's doing a Valentine's Day giveaway on Facebook, so be sure to check it out!! She also sells her products at various farmer's markets and bazaars around the Portland metro area. As a lot of my blog readers go to Athey, I'll let you know you can find her there too.



"Blast-Tastic" - Tim's claim to fame.

The winner with his prize bar. I realize this is a lousy picture of the soap, but I don't have very many pics of Tim on here, so I'm posting it anyway.

Just because she's thoughtful, Michelle also gave us four more bars of soap - Green Tea, Army Men (doesn't smell like them, I assure you, just has some plastic ones in the bar), Princess (with a crowned duck on top), and White Citrus.

Dad - Your claim to fame can be that you're Tim's FIL. :)

Summer - Can you ever get fun soaps over there? I'm assuming not, but I really have no idea.
