Tax Season

Tue, 24 Jan 2012 08:40:00 +0000

I just wanted to add a quick note to explain why I am not at the shop as often as everyone would like. During the winter months (tax season) I work at both the shop and H&R Block, its just until April and you all have my word that I will still be available to answer questions and to whip up any special orders, I will just be doing it early in the morning and later in the evening. I have a little help at the shop, our hours of operation are still 9am until 6pm Tue - Fri and 10am - 4pm on Saturday. Just let my helpers know what you need and I will get right on it.

Take care everyone and let me know how I can help... Annette

End of the Season

Fri, 18 Nov 2011 08:00:00 +0000

Okay, so running a shop and doing shows has been, shall we say, challenging. I have however really had a great season. The farmers market ended at the end of October, I am always sad to see that end, its the most wonderful vibe there. I will miss all of my friends but it is always such a treat to go back in the spring and say hello again.

It is so hard to believe that Thanksgiving is just around the corner and then of course Christmas, this year here on the Track 29 boardwalk we are all going to do it up right and decorate for Christmas in style. There will be lots of lights and trees, even (if I can convince a certain Santa) a Santa Clause for the kids to get there picture taken, I will have to let you know when that event will be as I still have to do some fast talking.

Another big day coming up for me is our 1st Anniversary... yep, we have been here at Track 29 for one year. It is so hard to believe we made it...yes it is by the skin of my teeth but we are still here thanks to all of you!

That leads me to the real reason I am updating my blog, THANK YOU EVERYONE WHO HAS BELIEVED IN ME AND MY PRODUCTS, I promise to keep chugging along if you all will keep up the support. Iv got some fun ideas for 2012 and I promise to keep you informed as I go. Be sure to watch for emails about up coming events and my calender will keep you up to date on what shows you can find me in. I am looking forward to a few new ones next year so stay tuned.

Take care, Happy Holidays and Thank you all again... your friend, Annette

New Shop at 'Track 29'

Thu, 03 Mar 2011 16:16:00 +0000

Well, I am proud to say that things are really starting to pick up down at the shop. Ken has been babysitting the shop while I have been working at H & R Block through tax season but I still find time to spend a day or two there myself mixing lotions and visiting with people who wander in.

Now that the weather is better I think we will see alot more people on the boardwalk than we have in a while. I will be at the shop full time after April 18th... I hope you will all come and see me.

I am off to work now but I will try to up date the web site soon, take care everyone and don't forget to drop by when you can.

Annette

Happy New Year

Sun, 02 Jan 2011 11:40:00 +0000

Okay, well it is finally here..2011. There has been so much going on and so I thought I would take a minute and update you on what has been happening with the wonderful world I call Ann'ue Sensation.

We have spent the last month getting a new shop opended up. Yep, we took the plung and are now shop keepers, I must say I was not really sure if I would like it but as things start to come together I find I look forward to going to the shop everyday. As most of you know I have had more of a gypsy life the last few years with traveling around and selling my lotions but now we have added a little stability to our lives with the shop.

We are located in downtown Yakima WA at Track 29, 1 W Yakima ave space 20. It is the cutest little shoping mall that is set in an old train, please stop by if you can get a chance and say hello.

Don't worry if you are one of my many customers that don't live in the area, I have not hung up my traveling shoes all together yet! We will still be at most of my favorite places this year, keep an eye on my calender for all the latest fairs and festivals we will be attending... I will try to do a better job of keeping everyone in the loop.

Now let me say thank you to everyone for all your support in the last five years...wow, five years we have been mixing up lotions and potions and meeting new people...Thank you to you all for supporting me, without you I could not do what I love so much. Happy New Year and many blessings to come.

Here is the first coupon for the year, God bless and thanks again for all you do!

Labor Day...Already!

Fri, 27 Aug 2010 19:52:00 +0000

Good afternoon eveyone, well as hard as it is to belive it is already going to be labor day and the end of my traveling around for a few months...i am glad to be able to stay home for a bit but I always get a little sad to realize that the season is almost over.

I have had a very nice season this year, we went to Walla Walla and Grand Coulee as well as Richland, Packwood and Westport... We still have a few more trips to take such as, of course, Packwood for labor day, Tacoma for the Holly Tree Boutique and The Portland Expo for Thanksgiving, but we will have a few more oportunities right here in the valley as well... we have the Yakima Farmers Market on Sundays and the Holy Family Christmas Bazaar in November so look for me around town for all your gift giving needs... oh, and dont forget you can order anything you like here on my web site...email me if you don't see what you want, I'll see what I can do.

So, I am happy to say thank you all for a wonderful season...I will try to send everyone more coupons both online and in the mail... see you on the road!! Annette

New Season Begins

I am very excited to let everyone know that we hit he road for our first show of the season in just a few days. I have been cooking and creating lotions and have a few new things to put out this year. A wonderful new sea salt soak to help relieve sore muscle pain, a fantastic new french green clay mud mask w/tamanu oil for gentle skin repair and a great new assortment of dead sea salt bath soaks, lavender and vanilla orchid to name a few... So, stop by my booth this year and say hello.. I look forward to seeing everyone. As always I welcome your emails and calls so, don't hesitate to drop me a line if you have questions or concerns... God bless, Annette

Home again

Tue, 23 Mar 2010 15:25:00 +0000

Okay, we finally made it home. We had such a great time on our adventure but now it is time to come home and get back to work.

I would like to thank all of my customers who called and emailed me while we where gone, thank you for your understanding. You are all very important to me and I can not tell you how much I appreciated your patience at the fact that I was limited on what orders I could fill while we where on the road. Again, thank you for your understanding and your business.

We had such a great time while we where out in our wonderful country, we did visit Mexico as well. We had fun and spent a lot of quality time with our grandson too. He was really ready to come home. we where on the road for a total of six weeks, the last day my grandson was almost giddy with joy that he was going to see his mom and sister again. We where giddy too with the thought of sleeping in our own bed and curling up in my favorite chair. :)

Thank you again to everyone, I am going to hit the kitchen starting tomarrow so look for lots of fresh lotions and creams, i might even get creative and see what new stuff I can finally come up with.

God bless you all, Annette

ROAD TRIP!!!

Tue, 09 Feb 2010 03:00:00 +0000

Well, we are really excited now. On wednesday we are leaving for a wirl wind trip first to Yuma AZ and then into Mexico and then back to Yuma and then onward to visit family in Oklahoma!! on the way I am hoping to see a few state parks with the grand canyon at the very top of my list. Along the way I will try to convice people that they should at least try my lotions and healing creams... so, if you live in the Yuma area and saturday rolls around, give me a call and maybe we could meet! Now, that would make my trip.

We are bringing our grandson with us on the trip and hope he will have as much fun as we are planning to have. He is only four and everything is a wonder, it will be fun to see our wonderful country through his eyes.

Now, yes, we know there are storms everywhere and I would not mind if you all prayed a bit for the weather to miss us for the most part. I will do my best to post some pic's of our trip as we venture along... I think we are going to have a wonderful adventure.

As for all your orders, I will be taking most of my lotions and healing creams with me so as the orders come in I should be able to put them in the mail where ever I am. Now, if you order something a little more uncommon, the order will have to wait until I get home. I will make sure you know if I need to postpone your order or if I can send it along immediately by return email or at the time you call me...

So, say a prayor for us and watch my web site for updates and pictures of the trip...

see you all soon, Annette
