Hi Everyone, every now and then we have to do the mundane work of website administration.  After all, one of the reasons why we took on this Blogging was to try to make some money from the Apothecary.  Having done this for almost a year, I can confidently dispel the myth that you can “quit your day job” if you have a website shop.  No, people are not flocking to buy our wares on-line.  We find that people just enjoy reading our posts especially for the funny stories and the recipes.  In turn, we have decided that, despite the lack of monetary return, we will continue Blogging because it is an outlet of expression for both of us, especially in my case.  I had aspirations of becoming a writer/ journanlist before I became a medical doctor and I find that I can re-cultivate my writing skills through this form of expression.  Besides, it is a really good way of informing family and friends of what we are doing so they need not worry that we are stuck in the middle of nowhere deprived of entertainment and variety.

Apothecary tweaks include:

The Apothecary has been better organised into categories.  In the soap section, we are offering soaps in plastic wrap, tin and rolls of 50 to give people more of a choice (and a better price).  Also I have added the pictures of the body sprays which have been missing for a whole year.  Still more pictures to come…

Also, there is a new Custom Orders page which gives information on special orders.  It gives a list of possible products (anything really from hair care to nail care to foot care…you name it..and we will create it) and available Belizean raw materials that can be used to create brand new products.  There is a whole list of lovely local stuff; here are some pictures to entice you:

There is still more administration to come including New Products and a full list of Elixirs.

Have a good night!!
