    Hide me from my In-Laws

    Hehe now you mention it, my Dad is the Father-In-Law from hell. Seems fair lol. *I've sacrificed the children. They are playing cards as my proxy. Mwhahahahahaha.

    Hide me from my In-Laws

    Cheese in a can and fake bacon. Freaky. I had to Google spray cheese lol. It's a whole new world. They mean well? You haven't been introduced. Evil I tells ya.

    Hide me from my In-Laws

    Help! Help! I'm being repressed! I've lost control of the TV remote. My every calorie is being counted. The house has been inspected (I fail by default). I was given 23 soaps as a gift when they arrived :confused:. Seriously :wtf:. Is it a hint that my soaps suck? Are they examples of what...

    Mango orange (cut pics added)

    Looks yum, sounds yum, I want cake. Or maybe a fruit cocktail. That blend sounds amazing. Can't wait to see it cut.

    Cut pics of my first colored soap

    One second I'm reading a thread where you're talking about leather treatments and then I see this. :shock: My image of you is changed for ever. efficacious adjective formal adjective: efficacious 1. (of something inanimate or abstract) successful in producing a desired or...

    Ostrich Oil

    Just awesome. I just got my 1st bottle of emu oil and you've inspired me to get to it. I mean, they're both flightless hand puppet birds right? Hemp and ostrich sounds lush. Your lotion looks fantastic.

    Hubby scored me a curing rack!

    LOL! No droopage yet. Yep that's my cat Mickey Meow. He looks like a bobble head and I love the black and white ones too. Kinda formal looking in their little fur tuxedos.

    Hubby scored me a curing rack!

    He's tricky when he wants to be. I'll let him know. It can be part of his Valentines pressie :lol:

    LOL thanks. I suddenly have the desperate urge to get a **** job.

    What soapy thing have you done today?

    It's a good addiction! Nope to washing up straight away. Wipe off as much batter as possible then leave everything until it's saponified. Much easier to clean and better for your drains. Throw any rags in the wash after waiting too. Just don't wipe bulky bits up with rags. Use paper...

    I suffer from DDM

    Looks DDM free to me. Very pretty! Beautiful colours and swirl. 48 hours. That must be some kind of record. I just couldn't.

    Life gets in the way of soaping

    I hear ya. Kids will be like "What's for dinner?'', I'll be like "OMG we just did that last night, you want it again?" So frustrating. Just want to make soap. *For those that haven't yet had kids, they don't work out as minions. Nope.

    What soapy thing have you done today?

    I cleaned 200 and eleventy million soap utensils, pots, pans and bowls. I may have fudged the numbers there. I think there was more. Felt like it anyway :mad:. Cleaning up because the Mother-In-Law is coming to stay. She will be doing her not so subtle inspection. Kill. Me. Now.

    Hubby scored me a curing rack!

    LOL it's his come back move after trying to make a soap log cutter. The pieces of which are in my garage. I could take pics of the attempted soap cutter and post them but that would be mean. After 2 weeks of trying he told me to order one from Bud. He's less wood work, more mechanic. I love...

    Does vinegar neutralize lye??

    Thanks Hazel. I was home alone, smacked into a few walls on the way to the shower, rang a few wrong numbers trying to get the ambos. Did I keep my cool? Nope lol. Just have some slightly damaged eyelids and eyelash follicles. So lucky.

    Does vinegar neutralize lye??

    Yep, water is the go and lots of it. Rinsing for 30mins minimum is what's needed. Seems like a lot but it keeps eating away at the tissues like you said. I image the acid must have felt the same. It's weird how you read about vinegar in some soap books but caustic soda safety directions will...

    Does vinegar neutralize lye??

    Yep, rinsing with heaps of water is the answer, but in an emergency, if you can drink it, you can rinse with it. I had an accident with caustic soda last year while cleaning drains. I had goggles, gloves, apron and the rest of my full PPE kit on. I slipped and landed on my butt while...

    another soap embed

    Sounds like you need to be bubble wrapped for safety. I have a mate who during the last 12 months has broken her ankle tripping over the dishwasher door, dislocated her pinkie finger by snagging it in her trousers and busted her wrist tripping over a dog. You 2 should hook up and swap tips...

    Cutting too soon

    Anyone else find it impossible not to read Schamone in Michael Jackson's voice and throw a hee hee at the end? Anyway, glad to see I'm not the only one doing the DDMs. I try and smooth them out too but they never really look 100% when I butcher them too early. Paillo is spot on. I'm going to...

    Cutting too soon

    *Stands up* "Hi, my name is Derpina and I'm a premature soap cutter". I try not to but it just sits there. Taunting me. I'll try and get some control. Realising that I have DDM is a bit embarrassing. Also, DDM really sounds like a reference to skid marks in jocks. Just saying.
