I don't understand it! I have a customer that asked for me to make her a specific soap, I made it 'hot processed' so she wouldn't have to wait 4 to 6 weeks for it to cure. It was one of the first 'hot processed' soaps I made and I lets say it was accidentally made, it didn't look nice at all but she was in need of it so she bought it. I wrote down the ingredients to have as a reference. I have followed the recipe twice and  cannot get it same way! I've given her other soaps to try and she only likes the first one! I don't understand?! Even the fragrance is different! I really don't understand........

I bought materials today to make a soap stamp. I glued everything together and will be trying it out tomorrow or Monday along with my new soap molds.

Ok....I don't understand! I'm having trouble uploading my soap pictures to FB, my blog and my website to be. I see the pictures on my camera, in my computer but somehow they don't show when I 'browse' to find them to upload them. Someones playing a trick on me! I think I'm going to have to try the smaller camera and retake all those pictures again, to see if it does the same thing. Next I try getting on my blog and I get a 'nowhere to be found' message.....What the????? I know I haven't been on in a while so I figured they kicked me out! LOL! Too much to do, not enough time in the day to do it. Anyway, after going into my Etsy account and renewing some items, I decided to come back to my blog.....just to see. There it was, Hooray! I guess I HAVE been away too long....I wasn't entering the right name! LOL. All morning I've been working on this stuff...maybe I should try fixing the picture problem now???

I need some ideas for Valentine day scents for my soaps. What kind of scent reminds you of that special someone?
I'm desperately trying to get back into the swing of things! I made a batch of lavender soap. That's curing now. I'm trying to do my new website but I've never done something like that before and it's a little difficult even though the web host said 'easy'. I look at what I've done so far and then I go into someone else's website and it looks so much better than what I've done. I don't understand....I don't have imagination?? I can't understand what I'm supposed to do?? My web host doesn't have nice web site things?? Even the wording I can't understand..Maybe it's because I have had a sinus headache....I don't know. Maybe I should have paid to have someone do it for me.....

Winter Wonderland

I thought we wouldn't get much snow this winter, but our first snowstorm left about a foot of snow. Some snow drifts were much higher than a foot, some areas were almost bare. The wind was unbareable, there was white-out conditions all yesterday. But, like always, the storm passes, the sky clears, the sun comes out and the clean-up begins! There is a light at the end of the tunnel, warmer temps and some rain due for the end of the week.
The poor goats were locked inside today. The wind was too much for them. Nubys belly is getting bigger. She tried scratching her hind leg this morning but couldn't reach, her belly's in the way. I thought she's due the end of January....I don't know????
