    Hot process salt bar

    I did check on eo calc and used less then what was in the green. I used spoon measurements because I don’t have a scale for small stuff(next on my shopping list). What little bit I used wouldn’t even have moved the scale.

    Hot process salt bar

    I did get a few into cupcake molds then squished the rest into a mold. I let it cool and it was very crumbly and wet from spraying the sides of the crockpot to avoid hard bits. I ended up putting it back into the crockpot to remelt and back into the loaf mold. Cut it while still very warm and it...

    May 2024 SMF Challenge: Hanger Swirls!

    My inspiration is for my mom and dad. Lost dad last year and mom this passed February. They both loved gardening and flowers. It was supposed to be reminiscent of flowers. Purple was moms and red was dads. Purple with alkanet is very spotty even after sitting on a warm stove for a few days. The...

    Colours turned out pretty nice. If I don’t think about how I wanted them to look I’m impressed they turned out considering how thick they were. I banged them down hard😁. Had to fill in a few holes but not much.

    I do use tallow from the 2 beef we had. Next batch will be with the lard I rendered, no tallow.

    Entry thread for the SMF March 2023 Challenge - Trip or Travel inspired

    Mine is my favourite place in the world and since moving to Alberta I don’t get there near enough. It’s where my mom was born and where I spent the first 2 years of my life, real bush baby😁. My great grandma and grandpa were there during the gold rush. They packed equipment for the stampeders...

    Made a paprika infusion, turmeric and uncoloured soap that a few bars were wrecked from a hard crumbly bottom and a saw the Feb contest so tried to make curls out of the worst ones and used some for ciaglia. I don’t have a big square mold or planer so just used a loaf mold. Had a plan to do...
