Very pretty! Looks like vanilla and caramel to me (go figure, me and my voracious sweet tooth!)

Wow, my sons friend (our next door neighbor) just gave me a soapmakers nicest compliment. I had given him some of my soap a few weeks back and he just told me today that he wanted me to know that a lot of his friends have been complimenting him on how good he smells and he wanted to thank me...

Wow!! Your soap turned out soooo groovy! The column swirls are so pretty and you did an awesome job!

I don't gel either because this way I don't have to worry about ash which I absolutely hate. My colors come out pretty nicely even though I did not gel, here's an example:

I use castor in every batch at 10%.

I just saw a real good movie called Love and Other drugs with Jake Gyllenhall and Anne Hathaway. It's a romantic comedy but had me balling at the end. Loved it though :D

Oh my gosh, how very clever and well made!!! I love em, so pretty and cozy looking. I woudn't mind having one for myself :lol: . My dog is a medium/big dog but if you ever make them for bigger dogs I'd be totally interested!! You've got a winning product here!

I just spoke to my mom on the phnoe and she told me about the outpouring of attention, and small acts of kindness from the parishioners of her church and it has truly restored her faith in humankind and made me soooo happy. These people are bringing my parents food, spending time with my mom...

Diane, Your post managed to make me cry :cry: I DO know the conversation you are talking about, very well. It's one i've yearned for all my life. a normal, loving conversation with my mom where feelings are put out there on the table and there is no fighting, drama or bitterness. A few...

Marianne, It does seem that way doesn't it.....those family members who are the most supportive get the brunt of their anger, frustration, etc. Perhaps they just need to let it out and the most supportive family members are generally the ones who just always happen to be around. I guess...

Thank you everybody for the really good advise...you guys rock!! My mother has been a difficult person ALL her life, this is nothing new. But I do need to remember that she is fighting for her life and she will have many bad days to come. I will pray for her and support her in any way I can...

Hazel and Amanda, Thanks for the advise. You all are right of course and I knew this, it's just sooooo hard sometimes. And sometimes it reaks havoc on my psyche....but I know it's the right thing to do. Because come the day that she passes from this life to the next, I know I will have done...

My question....How do you handle talking to a a very difficult person when they are very sick. The reason i ask is that my mother has been diagnosed with stage 4 cancer and will have to undergo lots of chemo. She just had surgery and was sent home yesterday. Throughout these last couple of...

If your mom saw the soaps on quiltingboard.com than those were probably mine! :D I just posted them yesterday since I belong to that board too. I'm going to add the cut pics here today. Thanks for the positive feedback.

When I was a young girl, my parents would take my sisters and I camping every year to Myrtle Beach in SC. We always had loads of fun there and no bears anywhere. There is a bunch for young follks to do there too. My son loves Myrtle Beach. :D I was also going to mention Wisconsin Dells...

Thanks for all the positive feedback everyone :D You all should give the column swirl (by Amanda Griffin....lovinsoap.com) a try, its loads of fun! :D

I did a column swirl on both the slab mold and the log mold. Its fun to see what kind of results you will get but it's not easy to coordinate so many colors and hold the funnel and pour by yourself.
