Open Houses are checked off… The official countdown to Day 1 is ON! 🎒✏️

​With meet the teacher nights and school tours wrapped up, that official first day of school is right around the corner next week! Between labeling supplies, packing lunches, and adjusting bedtime alarms this weekend, having a few natural daily routines set in place now makes launch day so much smoother.

​Here is the First Week Ready doTERRA lineup to help the entire family hit the ground running:

​1. The First Day Courage & Jitter Tamer 🦁
• ​Brave® / Tangerine + Roman Chamomile
◦ ​The Goal: Ease butterflies, build first day confidence, and make walking into a new classroom feel exciting rather than overwhelming.
◦ ​How to use: Roll Brave over the heart and on pulse points before hopping on the bus or heading to the drop off line.
💡 Random Fact: Citrus aromas contain high levels of limonene, a naturally occurring compound researched for its rapid ability to trigger mood lifting pathways in the brain!

​2. The Early Alarm Wake Up Call ⏰
• ​SuperMint™ / Wild Orange / Cheer®
◦ ​The Goal: Shake off summer sleep schedules and replace sluggish morning grogginess with upbeat energy (great for both kids and parents!).
◦ ​How to use: Put 1 drop of Wild Orange and 1 drop of SuperMint in your palms, rub together, and take 3 deep breaths while breakfast is on the table.
💡 Random Fact: Peppermint contains menthol, which naturally stimulates cold receptors in the nose and skin—tricking the brain into feeling instantly alert and refreshed.

​3. The Back to Routine Sleep Reset 🛌
• ​Calmer® / Serenity® / Cedarwood
◦ ​The Goal: Shift evening routines back to earlier bedtimes this weekend so the whole house wakes up rested on day one.
◦ ​How to use: Start diffusing Serenity or Cedarwood in bedrooms 30 minutes before lights out, and roll Calmer along the spine or soles of the feet.
💡 Random Fact: Cedarwood has a warm, woodsy aroma loaded with cedrol, which is known in aromatherapy to signal the nervous system to switch from busy mode into rest and digest mode.

​4. Daily Shield for Classrooms & Lockers 🛡️
• ​On Guard® / Stronger®
◦ ​The Goal: Daily environmental protection to keep everyone strong and thriving through those first busy weeks together.
◦ ​How to use: Roll Stronger on the back of the neck each morning, or keep a DIY On Guard spray in the car for a quick hand and backpack spritz after pickup.

​Weekend Prep Routine to Start Now:
• ​7:30 PM: Turn on bedroom diffusers with Serenity or Cedarwood to ease back into an earlier bedtime window.
• ​Morning Prep: Keep a Brave or Stronger roller in your morning basket or right next to the toothbrushes for a quick swipe out the door.

​Stop by Pic A Dilly this weekend to grab your essential oils, diffusers, and On Guard products before the first bell rings next week! 🌿✨

I am looking for a diamond in the rough!

The bakery is in need of someone that is willing to learn every position and can fill in where needed.

The hours will vary depending on what is needed but will average 15-25 hours per week.

Position requires working during business hours and sometimes Monday's (mostly 8AM-2PM but sometimes 7AM-4PM...this is not an after school position.) Willingness to fill in as an Early Morning Baker as needed (3AM-7AM) is a plus.

Knowledge AND experience with sourdough is highly preferred
