Thanks Earlene. It's not that I expect this specific issue to kill him, and I'm not particularly afraid of that, it's just that he was hospitalized so recently for four days with the exact same issue because he brushed it off for one day too long and it was severe. There are a lot of things I...

Want what done to you? There's a difference between being frustrated when he won't go to the doctor over something totally treatable and not knowing when to let go/pull the plug/whatever. We were perfectly happy to honor the DNR my grandmother wanted.

There's a face in that bottom left pair of bars. It's sticking its tongue out at me.

Oh, no, not a clot, cellulitis. It turned a lovely angry red and encompassed his whole lower leg below the knee. And he's not diabetic...at least, not yet. I'm sure that's coming for him like a freight train though unless he makes some pretty drastic changes pretty soon, which is unlikely...

What on earth went through your hubby's mind? Jeez. Tell him he needs to start mowing some lawns or waiting tables quick so he can pay back what he spent and next time, as suggested, make a separate account for the Christmas money, yikes! I'm sorry to hear about your hands, bacterial...

I soaped a grape-scented FO, Galatic Grape I think from WSP for some soaps to go in the nephew's stockings. I made a little melt and pour bar with my eldest nephew back this past summer with it, as he'd picked it out.

What do you do with stubborn fathers whose thick-headedness is going to be the end of them? Back in February my father suffered a nasty round of cellulitis - he was sick with something else Thursday and had a fever, we thought it was because of that. By Friday afternoon his leg was pretty...

I found those in our local Walmart and OOB I'm unimpressed. They were all weak and IMHO didn't smell quite right to my nose, especially the woody, earthy ones. Not surprised to hear that so far it appears the scent didn't stick (so far, anyway)

Aw, congrats on the new puppy!

Are you using a drag 'n drop builder for this or are you writing your own HTML and CSS and using a cart plugin? I'm not going to comment on your products (except that others are right, when I clicked on the products in the navigation, I kind of expected to be taken to the storefront for them).

1. Mx6inpenn - I'm in! 2. dibbles - Me too! 3. MissChief - Come hell or high water, I'm making soap this month! 4. Judiraz- Starting today! 5. Wyredgirl- cuz why not?! 6. Arimara- We will see... 7. earlene - time permitting 8. crispysoap - I've got plenty of spoons so bring it on. 9...

Made one of two planned Christmas batches for giving away. Scented with WSP's frankincense. The reviews say it discolors and accelerates. Definitely discolors almost immediately, the oil is so dark. I expect the soap to just get darker. I colored a portion of it with some gold mica and left...

I, don't remember exactly what brought it on strong enough for me to go through with it. My mother always wanted to try making her own soap and had gotten a couple of soap making books for Christmas, but never went through with it. About this time last year I decided I wanted to give it a whirl...

It's the light blue bumped up against the purple, I think. It reminds me of those old Paint With Water books from the 80s where the color was already on the page and you spread it out with a wet brush.

Thanks! I ordered some Nurture micas during their sale and they came just in time for this attempt. It's grape flavored (smells an awful lot like grape gum or soda), so I'd say 'look achieved!" Your pour has an interesting optical illusion of some sort going when it's in the mold. It's still...

OMG, hahaha! I just bought a new stick blender or I'd be sorely tempted!

Heh, mine got a little thick too, but here's photos! Before pour: In the mold: Soap!:

I sent a large portion of my ugly, cloudy first ever batch of liquid soap (diluted) home with my sister today to get it out of the house. It still washes, but it sure ain't pretty! That and planned a pair of Christmas batches. I have coworkers that want some soap bars and my mother wants to take...

I suppose that's possible. It's Crafter's Choice KOH from WSP, which I think is 89-90% (it's not on the bottle, I had to look up the MSDS), which is what I accounted for in the soaping calculator. Is it actually less than that? ETA: Mm, looks like I may have misread, it's 86.5%, so this is not...

Reckon it just goes to show how different everyone's experiences end up being. I don't really detest Windows computers, I use them at work (although my new boss as made a little noise about getting me a Mac Mini the next fiscal year, I'd be pleased!) and find them generally reasonable, I just...
