I've had a slow drain for months. I keep forgetting to pick up draino or to call the plumber. Then it finally occurred to me: perhaps there's absolutely no reason a chick with several pounds of lye laying around should have a clogged drain. Guess what the only words larger than "100% LYE" are on the bottle? That would be "drain cleaner". Long story short: I'm an idiot, but my drain's not clogged anymore.
 
Duh Moments common at 73

I normally make HP soap and once the batch is finished cooking I like to let it cool down to around 170 degrees before adding color, fragrance etc. The other night as I was putting in additives it started setting up on me pretty fast so I was in a hurry to get it in the mold and completely forgot to add the fragrance. I guess we all have our duh moments more often than we care to admit. SOAP ON
