Y'all know that "tootin'" has an interesting meaning... as in that old grade school song:

Beans, beans, the musical fruit.
The more you eat, the more you toot.
The more you toot, the better you feel.
So eat some beans at every meal!

This was a favorite camp song after our frank and bean cookouts 🤣

Sorry for OT, Zing, but I also have to ask if you have ever had SOS (sh1t on a shingle) it was some kind of meat gravy thing that my dad's family ate all the time, and I remember my parents fighting because mom refused to make it for him, so dad would leave and go to his mom's house for dinner.

Chipped beef!

It's a military thing, as I understand it. My dad & all other military folks I've know talked about SOS in the canteens. The recipe I saw for it was enough to feed hundreds of soldiers at once, so scaling it down was a requirement to make it for a normal family meal.

Sorry!

Wall Pour. Wall Pour. Alternating Wall Pour.

I tried to find my photo of my slanted layer's pour, but it's not in my albums here at SMF, so I have to look for it on my computer, but just haven't got around to it yet because my photo program is busy with another project & I didn't want to lose my place.

OK, just one more OT post with apologies to Mr. Zing. SOS is something my mom would make sometimes. It's essentially a basic white sauce (béchamel if you want to be fancy) with chipped beef mixed in. I loved it as a kid. When I got married I found out a favorite of my husband's family was grandma's 'creamed eggs' - same thing only with hard boiled eggs instead of chipped beef and eaten for breakfast.

And now back to the wall pour. Wall pour. Alternating wall pour. 🤣
 
Wall pours are great! Such a versatile technique that makes you look like you soaped all day!

My husband also ate chipped beef in a white sauce when he was growing up. Still buys those little jars of beef when he can find them.

@Zing is the wall-pour master, isn't he?

Yes - that exactly but with a little bit of curry powder in the 'bechamel'. Nom Nom.

WAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLL POOOOUUUURRRRRR
ALTERNATING WAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLL POOOOUUUURRRRRR

We love you Mr Zing! 😍
 
@earlene I do know that we eat a variety of beans across America I was merely joking about people missing out on the "secret" that is beans on toast which many think is baked beans but is actually beans in a very mild thin tomato sauce. 😋

Back to @Zing and your lovely soap. I did this as a slant pour last Christmas, my first try was very ambitious but very shaky.
