    What soapy thing have you done today?

    What soapy thing have you done today?

    So today I made a rebatch of my Pumpkin Latte soap. The last one really traced fast and learning from some mistakes it worked much better this time. I bought a scraper to replicate the 'foam' but that didn't work at all. The trace was fine and it scraped ok but I think the 'drips' were just...
