Do you ever have the urge to resign from being an adult? Are you burned out by the stresses that come with being a grown-up and wish you could be six again - far, far away from the mountains of paperwork and mortgage payments, credit card debt and computer crashes? Unfortunately, no matter how hard you try, you're never going to be six again. But relief is within your grasp, because the secrets of childhood are timeless, and they're available to you right now, no matter how "grown-up" you may be. In this humorous and inspiring book, cartoonist Jason Kotecki invites you to escape adulthood. He uncovers some of the values that come so easily to children, the ones many of us outgrew as we grew up. Filled with funny anecdotes, real-world examples, and practical advice
$14.95

  Fudgey Soapsicle
This soap is modeled after a true ice cream staple of luxury and decadence, the Fugdesicle, and this soap is just as sweet. Enjoy. What could be better than a soap that is hand made, and resembles one of your favorite childhood treats? Did we mention that this soap also has smell of the original, and it is delicious. We do, however, recommend not eating this soap. Not only do these soapy treats look like the original, they even weigh the same amount. A full 3 oz. of frozen treat washing goodness. The Fudgesicle Soap Popsicle also fits in almost all soap dishes and can be used like a regular bar of soap. And the wooden stick keeps it from slipping out of your hand.
$9.95
