Does palm oil speed up trace?

A while ago a had an email from Brambleberry for a free shipping code through October. Now I can't find it. Does anyone have it? Mary Lou

I just ordered 19 scents. Some are favorites and some are new ones. Since I only make small batches these 1 oz. bottles are perfect for me. I love their sales. They have them twice a year. It's so exciting when the box arrives. Mary Lou

I use the water dispersable TD. I always mix it in hot water and never have any trouble getting it dissolved. Mary Lou

I have read about it and saw it on you tube but never had it happen to me before. It was rain scent from Aztec. I was warned that it would rice and accelerate but this was so thick I could cut it with a knife and serve it on a plate. Plopping wasn't even an option. I guess it has to happen to...

Are you a soaper making art or an artist making soap? Both! That soap is stunning! I can't stop looking at it. Mary Lou

Your soaps are beautiful and so are the photos. Mary Lou

Irish Lass would you share the recipe for the spritz cookies. I have been looking for a melt in the mouth recipe for years. When I was in high school many many years ago they served the best spritz cookie I have ever tasted and I have tried a lot of recipes but none were the melt in the mouth...

Clothespins??? I have never heard of them. More info please.:) Mary Lou Do you bake them? The recipe doesn't say.

I love fruitcake. I never understood all the jokes about it. I have made it in the past but it was kind of like making soap. I made it around Thanksgiving, then wrapped it in cheesecloth soaked in rum and then left it to age until Christmas. Mary Lou

Do you bake Christmas cookies? What are you family's favorites? Some of our favorites are springerle, biscotti, shortbread cut outs, thumbprints, gingerbread men, oatmeal and of course chocolate chip. I usually make about 15 kinds and everyone gets a big container of cookies to take home on...

I have had my Kitchen Aid Pro for at least 20 years and have never had to have any repairs. It is a work horse. I have several attachments and do use them. I made noodles 2 days ago with the pasta attachment. I used the grinder at Thanksgiving to make my cranberry relish. I use the grinder and...

Love the trees and holly. Mary Lou

Thank you for the replies. I guess I will just have to work with it as I don't want to ask to have it returned. I'm sure I can create some beautiful colors if I plan for it. Mary Lou

I had a friend pick up a jug of olive oil at Sam's for me. I asked for 100% olive but she bought extra virgin. Since she was doing me a favor I don't want to ask her to exchange it. The jug is green so I can't tell how green the oil is. I don't want to open it until I need it. Has anyone used...

Since soap making is a hobby and not a business I have to pace myself to keep from being buried in soap. So I have several hobbies. I make quilts and other quilted items. Most are donated to the country store at church. It's part of our Autumn Festival held every October. I also hand dye much of...

I always bake my turkey on the day before and after the carving I give the carcass a good long simmer. When making my gravy on Thanksgiving I was using the gelled stock to thin my gravy and my 18 year old grandaughter asked why I was putting jello in my gravy. Turns out she had never heard of...

Soapmaker, Thank you for the reviews.I really like CS . I have had good results with most of them. Unfortunately most of their reviews are for candles so I'm taking a chance when I order a new one. You have tested several that I have not used and I appreciate you for taking the time to test and...

My husband is just the opposite. He loves Harbor Freight and never comes home empty handed. He could open a store with all the tools and accessories and gizmos he has in his shop. All I have to do is ask if he has something I need and sure enough he has it. If by any chance he doesn't he's off...

At one time I made a lot of clothing for myself and my daughter but I never knew how it was going to fit until it was finished. Was disappointed in the fit now and then. Now I do a different kind of sewing. I make things like purses, wall hangings, table runners and placemats. I love to do...
