Day Two - Thinking about a contest

Publicity is key.  We need to get our name out there.  We need to run a contest, everyone loves contests.  Maybe a "like our FB page" contest and we'll pick a winner at random.  Prize will be something.  Need a prize.  Maybe one of our Valentine Boxes.  I'll keep you posted.

I wonder how other Tartists handling pouring tarts they just don't like.  I'm not one for roses, never have been but need to have rose scents.  We have been testing Sweet Green Grass oils for what seems like weeks.  Haven't found one we like.  Yesterday, a shipment of oils arrived from a new supplier and most of the oils were excellent but the Sweet Grass was so bad that I can't even describe it.  More like grass that's been sitting in a compost pile for a few weeks.   Eeeeew.

Do you ever wonder what tart makers melt for their own pleasure?  Most of the time, our house is filled with whatever tarts we're pouring that day and no need to melt anything extra.  But on days like today, when we didn't have many to make, I've been melting our Sugar Corn Pudding. It is a crazy scent description but so delicious. Sweet notes, hot very buttery corn and salt.  You can actually smell the salt! And a custard, creamy sweetness throughout.

Tomorrow is Friday and that is always a good thing!
