"Addicted" is their word, not mine. Just last week a customer asked how she could get my soaps once the farmers markets were over. I told her she could get them online through my website, and also mentioned the stores that carry them. "Good," she said. "I just want to make sure I can still get it, now that you've got me hooked on your CRACK soap!"
Crack soap! I laughed about that one all day long. I'm cracking up all over again even as I write this. I love that she's a true fan, though the comparison to crack cocaine isn't exactly flattering . . . !
Well here's a new twist on addictive soap. From the Northwest Florida Daily News online police blotter:
14-year-old sells cocaine, actually soap

FORT WALTON BEACH — A 14-year-old boy was arrested for felony charges of selling counterfeit controlled substances.
According to a Fort Walton Beach Police report, the juvenile sold a quantity of suspected crack cocaine to an undercover police agent.
The boy sold the supposed cocaine for $145 and then fled the area.
He was arrested at his home on Wright Parkway on Sept. 11.
Officers found that the sold drugs were not cocaine, but that it was pieces of soap.
The boy admitted to officers that he cut up a bar of soap at his house and then sold it as crack cocaine.
Now why didn't I think of that. $145 dollars for a truly addictive bar of soap! I've gotta raise my prices.
