Ortigia

Okay, I'll admit that sometimes I buy soap and other body products just for the packaging...and I love the packaging of Ortigia home & body products. I spied them at Safari Living a couple of weeks back and they smell as good as they look.  Apparently the woman behind the product is Englishwoman Sue Townsend who created the Crabtree & Evelyn line in the 1970s. She has based the Ortigia brand on plants indigenous to the region of Sicily...

P.S. Sorry for the lack of posts this week (and visits to my favourite blogs). I haven't intentionally been neglecting my blog, I've just been absent in hospital having a small operation. Never a dull moment in our household! Anyway, I'm back on deck now & looking forward to catching up on what everybody has been up to.
