Busy Evening

Tonight was spent soaping. Well, doing a little cleaning, then soaping. After packing up a few orders, I was getting low on a couple of my soaps. So I made some Wake Up Call and some Pink Sugar, and then a batch for my own personal use (and for the family of coarse). I'll post pictures tomorrow after I cut them.

It took me hours to make the soaps, though, because everyone was home and I need to be extra extra careful. I also measured out oils to use for other batches - just makes things go faster.

After soaping I cleaned up and since my hands were slippery, while I was rinsing my water glass it broke. So sad, too. It was a mulit-colored polka dot one that I bought years ago, put away to store, and just brought out a couple days ago.

Sigh. So finally I'm having some Muscado wine and... what are these things, Chester's Puffcorn. Not bad. Salty and airy. Frank brought out some mozzerella balls (yum) and Greek olives, too. Quite the interesting feast. Nice ending to a busy evening, though.
