    Shampoo Base for personal use

    I'm looking into getting a shampoo base that I can play with for just me. I have no interest in selling shampoo ;) What bases are the best? I know MMS has sample sizes, but I'm not making an order from there any time soon... If it helps, my hair is long, thick, blonde, somewhat damaged...

    Still around... kinda...

    I'm still here, just don't get on as much now. They blocked this site at work. So I can only get on at home, and my computer is kind of messed up. It's an older iBook and the screen occassionally blacks out. But I am reading :)

    2 new soaps

    First, Lavender Vanilla. Now I hate lavender with a passion. Can't stand it. But blended with the vanilla, it's not too bad. I can tolerate it :) I don't know what caused the lines. Kind of strange. Second, Blue Alyssum. I love alyssum flowers. This scent is a soft honey-floral...

    Here's my new Whipped Kpangnan Butter. I am in love with this blend. It's scented Lemon Cream Cake, which is just a perfect scent for the creamy color.

    Any card makers or scrapbookers here?

    I'm thinking of making up some card making kits. They would include Stampin' Up! paper/cardstock only (I'm a Stampin' Up! demonstrator). All the paper would be pre-cut and include card blanks, different sized pieces for stamping on, patterned designer paper, and envelopes. Also could easily be...

    Goat's Milk, which is it.

    DH and I got into a discussion about this. I say (type, whatever) goat's milk. He says it should be goat or goats. What do you think?

    House taxes?

    My county was very behind on taxes last year. We just got our bill for 2007, which is 2006 taxes. The whole year, due the end of this month. Now, we bought the house in Oct 2006. This is my first home ownership experience, so I have no clue, but why would we owe for the WHOLE year? Shouldn't it...

    CP, HP, RTCP?

    I know what they stand for. I'm wondering about the benefits/downfalls of each one. I'm not sure I want to venture there anytime soon, but just for future reference :)

    My bird's coming home!

    When I was in high school, I was working at PETsMART and bought a Sun Conure parrot, Coral. That was in 1997. He stayed with my mom while I went off to college (1998-2002). Then I came home, and got married in 2005. My husband said we'd give him a shot while she went on vacation with her then...

    Preservatives - Optiphen

    I just ordered some Optiphen from MMS. I've never used preservatives before. I'd be using it in salt/sugar scrubs and body butters mostly. Please tell me it'll work for both of these :) It sounds like it's multi-purpose, but I'm not sure. Do I NEED a preservative for body butters?
