    Meet my puppy - and show me your pets!

    snappyllama - I must say, Mr. Plumpers is the best name I have ever heard. We used to have a rat named Captain Noodles, but Mr. Plumpers has him beat!

    No more Bubbles (not spam)

    I'm so sorry for your loss. After reading everyone's sweet posts it brought a tear to my eye. You should be comforted that she had a long loving life that you gave her. That is the biggest and best gift we can give to our furry friends. My heart hurts for you.

    FO type - Capri blue volcano

    AHRE has one aptly called Volcano Type. I'm testing it right now in soap, it's been exactly 4 weeks. OOB it's fantastic. It smells like a sweet juicy tangerine to me with a bit of tartness. I can't remember exactly what the candle smelled like, but if you like sweet citrus scents you will...

    Let's talk TD again...

    Thank you Sonya! I love the color you got and your soap looks so beautiful! I've had many failed attempts at that color. I have tried using pink and purple and blue and purple, but never all three. That must be the magic ticket! Great job!

    Newbie - Who is Sonya? Her soap is fantastic! I would have given her credit, but I could not tell where the pic came from. I found it on Pinterest and sometimes I can't find the source. I wonder if she will tell me how she made that fantastic color? It haunts me in my dreams...

    Thanks Shunt! It's good to know, plus I see that she has a lovely plum mica I would love to try. I have been trying to make plum forever, at least one that I'm happy with. I don't know how to attach a pic, but there is a great plum colored soap I'm loving. Isn't it pretty?

    Let's talk TD again...

    Well, now I need a Badger pain mini mixer too since both of you ladies have one! I have a Norpro Cordless mini mixer and I use the whisk attachment. I must say, my TD in oil is perfect. It blends into my batter effortlessly and I don't even need to stick blend to mix it in..and I get...

    Let's talk TD again...

    Newbie - Now I'm re-reading the thread on glycerin rivers/stearic streaking and NO, you did not say that. I must have been drunk or something when I read it. It was DeeAnna that said: "Probably the worst name of the two is "glycerin rivers" because it is so incorrect. A high concentration of...

    Let's talk TD again...

    Cmzaha - How do you mix your glycerin with TD? I have oil soluble TD from WSP. I also have their water soluble and one from BB that is supposed to be both. I'm mixing the td with the glycerin with a spoon and I still see tiny lumps. Do you use a stick blender? I hate TD specks with a...

    Let's talk TD again...

    cmzaha - Yes, it's the one you used when you were over. :roll: You could have said something, I would not care one bit. I put it out the night before and washed my hands with it about 5 times the day you used it. I think that did not help, but I have not had that problem before so I was...

    Let's talk TD again...

    jstar - No, the OO in the TD was not from my recipe. I now wonder if the extra OO could have caused that. Hmmm. Something to think about.

    Let's talk TD again...

    Yes, it did. I'm not sure what the issue is. Maybe because we use it a lot since it's at the kitchen sink. I'm not sure what it is.

    Let's talk TD again...

    This week I was using a soap at my kitchen sink that's been curing at least 8 weeks (40% lard, 22% coconut oil, 15% olive, 10% sunflower, 6% castor & the rest RBO) and it's very soft and mushy after a few uses. I have been troubled by this, but then I read today Newbie saying too much TD will...

    "oceanizing" a water scent ...

    I think Salty Sea Air from Rustic Essentials is what you are looking for. It's very salty smelling and not floral or perfumey. I just bought a large bottle and can give you a sample if you are interested. It sticks great too.
