i need to make soap soon!
I have been crazy busy lately. Hubby and I put the house up for sale and we actually sold it. I can't tell you how stressful it was in this market. We decided it was time to move on with our lives and move out west to Oregon. We won't actually move until June, but have plenty to do before then. I don't feel like celebrating yet because nothing is really final until we are signing paperwork at the closing! Call me a cynic. I won't bore you with details, but I'm very tired and have a huge urge to make soap. Did I mention I was tired? Yeah, I'm tired.
I have an idea what I'm going to do. It will be a simple soap with a soft swirl in it. I'll be using this mold that I made as a slab mold to give me 4 bars of soap. The bottom of the mold will be the top of the soap if all goes well. I'm also going to put some Greek yogurt in it since my trials with that have gone well and I think the soap feels creamier with it.
But first I must get to the grocery store so I can make us some beanless chili for dinner. Food first I guess. The good part is that I can eat and soap with the yogurt! Honestly, the last thing I need is more soap, but this is necessary for me to do for my mind! Wish me luck!

I've been wondering about you! I always think to send you another email when I'm not home! Email me! :-) Please do make soap! You NEED to! I don't even have room on my shelf for my pirate soap but I'm going to keep going! :-)
ReplyDeleteI'm still here! Maybe lurking a bit! My attention span is about zero so I haven't been able to email anybody it seems. I will make soap this week so help me!
