Can you actually believe that it's November already! This year just flew by! But it is November and it finally feels like Autumn is here.

Keeping it relatively simple this month with themes that are not overly elaborate. And I am FINALLY getting to a Stick week. @Dave in KY ! So here are the themes for November!

November 3 - 10: Free Week - It's time to clear out all those old soaps or soaps you just want to finish up. Make room for the gift giving season that is coming up. Or just shave with what you want...but make sure you post it here!

Nov 11 - 17: Shave Stick Week - Yup...I have been teasing this for quite a time now and have forgetting to slip it into the month. But here it is...pull out your best ...or you only shave stick! Let's see the Palmolive, the Arko, the La Toja, or pull out that favorite artisan that you bought of theirs in a stick or maybe put in a stick yourself!

Nov 18 - 24: TSC Artisan Soap Week Featuring CBL Premium Soap - Here at the Cadre we like to celebrate our Artisans for their support of our favorite place on the interwebz! This week is one of our faves! Chant it with me Cadre...CBL...CBL...CBL...CBL...yeah that's it! You got it! And with all the interesting things going on over at the CBL Soap home....this is a great month to celebrate Chris @CBLindsay and his wonderful creations at @CBLSoap.com

Nov 25 - Dec 1: Thanksgiving is later in the month then I have remembered. But this week is dedicated to Thanksgiving. Whatever that means to you. Maybe a soap reminds you of a particular Thanksgiving or Autumn Season. Maybe the Soap or Cream smells like Thanksgiving. Maybe you were given a soap and you were tremendously thankful for it. You decide. This is your week...let's see what you got.

As always...if the Cadre has suggestions for any theme at any time...just let me know! Hope the Cadre has a VERY Thankful November!
