The first day of Spring is Thursday, March 20; so you know what that means, right? Hopefully no more bouts of unforgiving snowstorms, nasty droughts and bizarre polar vortexes. I've had about enough, and I'm sure you have too. I long for the days of warm, fresh breezes filled with the scent of blooming lilacs and honeysuckle; the days of high sun, cool drinks and the seemingly never-ending aroma of barbecues and freshly-cut grass.
Okay, I'm getting a little ahead of myself here. It's spring, not summer, for crying out loud. I'm not necessarily one to have the most optimistic attitude, but I am just so done with this freakish winter I've turned into a positive-touting guru. It's kind of disgusting, actually, but it's getting me through slopping around in slushy snow and ruining unsaid numbers of great shoes.
All right, let's get to the point. As you all may be aware, I had a full-time job in the real world which recently turned into another full-time job in the real world... thirty miles away from my apartment. Yeah. So, needless to say, I've been giving Piękny Cookie about five percent of what little time I have during the day. Um, last blog post was? Yeah, it's been awhile. One good thing about driving upwards of two hours to work every day (Chicago traffic + snow + ice + overly-careful drivers = NIGHTMARE) is that I get plenty of time to think and formulate new ideas. Which is why I came back to this blog and decided to get a little more disciplined about its upkeep.
The other reason I'm back is because I will be introducing my new Spring collection of perfumes (squee!) on March 20. I have four fantastic new scents that I just know you will all love (I know I love them, anyway). Plus, I will be re-vamping my shop just a tad and begin offering perfumes in collections. I don't really have a great collection area in my shop, and I'd love to be able to offer you guys packs of goodies for a discounted price. So, keep on the lookout for some new yummy scents coming your way in Spring!
Also, you may have noticed that my shop is lacking in the lip balm department as of late. Late last year I decided that it was in my best interests (financially) to discontinue lip balms and tints. The demand for them was minuscule in comparison to my perfumes, so I decided to focus all of my energy on fragrances. Sad news for lip balm addicts, but great news for anyone who loves great-smelling, moisturizing perfumes
Along with my new Spring collection, there may be a teensy little surprise for all you Facebook fans out there, so pay attention to your newsfeed mid-March for updates! I hope you all have a great rest-of-the-crappy-winter; don't worry, ladies, Spring is almost here!
