Happy Valentine's Day from La Muse! 

 

 

To say the least it's been challenging in these parts.  The DC area was hit with a huge snowstorm Saturday and  measurements in the area got up to 40".  My back deck measured 25" and that was quite enough!  The store was closed on Saturday and I spent the day cooking and baking, yum.  Darryel and I got to the store early yesterday morning and shoveled out a nice path from King Street to our front door.  This picture is of me standing behind the mound of snow we built.  There were a few brave souls who came in and shopped and for that I am grateful.

 

Valentine's Day will be here in less than a week. 

 

We've pinked up the La Muse website and put lots of great Valentine's Day specials right on the front page.  Order by noon on Wednesday for February 13th delivery with only $5 shipping.  We can expedite shipping on Thursday and Friday but of course it will cost more, feel free to email me if you get in a tight spot.  Use coupon code 'loveu' for 10% off of your purchase. 

For those of you that enjoy the inspirational stories that I many times write at the beginning of a newsletter I have changed things up for 2010.  I started a blog on January 1st entitled
365 Days of Creating Good Karma.  This is something that I've attempted many times over the years but this time I am committed.  It's a challenge and quite an undertaking but also a labor of love.  I've experienced and witnessed the cause and effect relationship of intentions and know that every person can enrich their lives through making conscience efforts of sending love, kind acts and good thoughts into the world.  The blog is my attempt at creating awareness for karma and documenting good karma moments.  While it's certainly therapeutic for me my hope is that it will inspire.  I'd like to write a book using lots of the information gathered here and not only encourage your stories, feedback and comments - I would be grateful for them.  Please share!

Stuff to Share

 

One of my friends recently told me I should start a 'deals' section on my website because if there's a deal to be had you bet I'll find it!  My latest and greatest find is Groupon.  This link will bring you to the DC site but if you go up top you can click on 'visit more cities' to find your city.  I found out about it back in December and have used it to purchase Broadway play tickets, a cooking class and a facial. 

All at least 50% off.  It totally rocks! 

 

Another tidbit for the day is that one of my artist's, Diane English, has just taken the price tag off of her  ecards - they are now free.  She has always been one of the best selling artists at La Muse and receiving one of her cards will make anyone's day.

If you'd like to browse around Click Here and you can feel free to use my login info:  User-LaMuse  Pass-Karma.  If you'd like to purchase any of her greeting cards or magnets you can do so at my website.

 

 

La Muse announces 'Daily Deals'

 So now that you know what Groupon is you'll understand that it has inspired me to create my own Daily Deals on the La Muse website.  Several times a week I will offer an item or group of items at 50-90% off.  Generally there will only be one or two of the item available and once it's gone, it's gone!  I will also lower the price of the item until it is sold.  So, be on the lookout, check back often and make sure you become a fan on Facebook because that is where we will announce the deals!!
