I wanted to keep the sample kill attempt going. I overlook my samples too much. I should try to get through them all. I have way too many. I could use nothing but samples the rest of the year and still not kill them all. I’ve got 6 months worth of Stirling samples alone.

The last I talked to them they were doing great. Eric was moving up in his Naval career. They had their priorities right. I miss them, but I’m happy for them.

Good ol’ Ruby’s Green. I loved that soap and wish I had bought a tub of it. I only had a huge 1oz sample the artisans were passing out at the Maggard Meet several years ago when they released the scent. It never really sold which is why there was only one run of it.

I’m not committing to killing a tub anytime soon, but I am going to try to kill some samples. I got this huge sample several years ago at the Maggard Meet. Although I have used it several time there is still a significant amount left. Maybe I’ll kill it by the end of summer.
