Copycats

They've done it again.  Another soap company has copied our natural soap page....sigh....

Oh they changed a few words, added a couple of headlines, and threw in some bullet points, but those are still my words.  Ask me how I know.

They say imitation is the greatest form of flattery.  Well guess what?  It's also illegal.  I've given them 7 days to remove our copyrighted content.  Should they be silly enough to choose not to, I'll be contacting my lawyers.

And of course Google!  'Cause they don't take kindly to plagiarism either.  <insert evil grin here>

The thing I find absolutely delightful in all this is that another soap maker turned them in.  They always do.  Never EVER underestimate the power of the soapmaking community.  In addition to being squeaky clean, we watch each other's backs pretty closely.  :)

Life's Too Short...

For a prickly pear cactus flower. Each delicate bloom lasts only about 8 hours, but what an incredibly beautiful bloom it is! And they're edible too (bonus point). This one has a bee rummaging around inside, which is typical, so harvest them carefully. 

I once thought there were both yellow and peach colored blossoms, but I have since learned that the peach color comes only in its final hours, as evidenced in this Prickly Pear Flower Time Lapse video.

If you're so inclined, try our Prickly Pear Soap which is made with the dried pads, not the blooms. We also have a Prickly Pear Liquid Castile Soap if you prefer liquid to bars.

Either way, it's all in a day in a year in the wild. :)
