I really wish there was a HUG emoji because I'd be hugging the heck out of you, @cmzaha and your daughter. (And still praying)

DIY Bath & Body has a recipe for a cleansing balm; I love it and it's easy to make. And the Instant Facial recipes included in the booklet are awesome; I made them for my Christmas markets and sold out...

Surprisingly, they're both in pretty good shape. My g'daughter's elbow is a bit sore but no major injuries to report. I expected to hear some whining about necks and such but.. nothing.

Update: G'daughter met up with friends from when they used to live here, good friends. They were happy to have her back and she's as happy to be back with them. We're hoping that seeing how they've grown will help her see how stuck she's become. Also, as of this afternoon, we have a rental...

They're home, thankfully. Now, comes the paperwork and dealing with insurance. Thank you all for your prayers and best wishes.

Will do for sure. They're scheduled to get on the bus in about an hour and should be home early this afternoon.

What a great idea!

This! This is what I'm hoping for. The Jeep will be replaced. It has its own story and it has finally become very clear that its time with us is over. I'm hoping that this shared experience will benefit both my husband and my g'daughter, that it gives them some time to talk about the...

And another to check is Windy Point, also out of Calgary (as is Candora)

That's the background I grew up in as well. Thankfully, I broke that mold. My granddaughter has some lessons to learn (not the condemning kind but the ones that build her up and show her what her life CAN be like) and that's part of the reason she's going to be here. I look forward to hearing...

Thank you for that! It looks like they'll be stuck where they are for the night. They've booked a hotel for tonight and will be catching the first available bus here tomorrow morning. Tickets have been booked for them. Apparently, my gdaughter realized the hotel has a pool and she just happens...

They were off the Coq but on the Connector, just outside of Merritt. Still waiting for updates...both have cell phones but coverage is spotty up there.

Thank you... My husband said they're shook up (understandably) but OK. Now, they're waitiing on BCAA (Automobile Association).

I'm glad she's coming. One thing after another is for sure... and not just for her. It's been a stressful 2023 and not a great start to 2024.

So, long story short, my granddaughter (from Vancouver Island) is coming to spend some time with us because she's needs to get away from an abusive relationship (she's almost 20). My husband drove four hours to pick her up from her grandfather's home near Vancouver. They're about half way back...

I know Sandra has made edits to files over the years; this is probably one of them.

I'm thinking I'll try almond flour next time. Grinding it was almost too much for my little grinder. It was starting to turn to paste.

Interesting. My version doesn't have a step 6 at all. Here's a screen shot of page 13 in the version I have (nothing of the recipe is given away so I don't see any issue with posting part of the directions):

The DIY Bath & Body Lotion Concentrate recipe right? I'm not seeing a step 6 anywhere in the recipe I have and when I do a search for plastic wrap, it doesn't come up at all.

I've never had an issue with "weird residue" from stainless steel. Or, maybe I just forgot; my stainless steel bowls are probably close to 30 years old. I generally don't colour my lotions but, if I do, I tend to use water soluble colorants. I'm not seeing the part where it says to cover...
