I got an order of tallow in, 7 lbs, which is my biggest order yet. It came in a plastic jug with a spout, so I melted the tallow in a double boiler, and then poured it out into smaller containers for easier use. I definitely need to enlighten the internet, because the Amazon reviewers hadn't...

Sliced some confetti soap that I made yesterday. Used a 2lb mold for the first time, and decided on a whim to double it. 18 bars instead of the normal 4-5 that I usually do per batch. What have I done? Also used glitter for the first time, and it's very pretty, but I may have gotten it...

Worked on some top decorations for some nerdy companion cube/portal soaps I made. I must have been on auto pilot, because it would have been easier to make a long embed like piece out of the soap dough and then slice it into disks once it hardened, but instead I rolled it out, cut coins with a...
