    What soapy thing have you done today?

    Today I am making a batch of OMH and as I was looking at my oils and lye solution cooling I realized I used water instead of GM. D'oh!

    For those who sell..

    Growing faster than expected. I sell out at the farmers markets and never have enough to do bigger events :( Also people who want to argue about "lye soaps"... I have to keep my attitude in check and smile at them even though I just want to tell them to get away from my table... And the heat...

    Wrapped or Unwrapped?

    I started using coffee filters on all my soaps not just the round ones. It's easy to wrap the squares and loaf cut bars like a present then I add my band with printed info. You can smell the fragrances and it keeps the soap out of people's noses.

    soap without lye? Yeah... I think she lies.

    Yeah I was shocked and a little bit offended to hear that from someone who is suppose to be a professional. I just noticed her hair creams and massage oils don't even list all the ingredients. I don't understand what she is trying to hide.

    soap without lye? Yeah... I think she lies.

    The HP gal she suggested not using a stick blender unless I have too and not to do it all all after trace because for her it seizes and clumps up really bad. Also suggested if worried about boil over stick the crockpot in the sink if it looks like it's getting close to being finished because it...
