When my son refers to ice cube trays as "ice molds"...and they're not even silicone!

Sounds like an exciting visit! Thanks for the update and info!

When you catch a glimpse of a blob of spilled melted ice cream cake (chocolate and vanilla) and take a second look to see if it made a swirl worth duplicating :)

The yellow batch looks so nice and creamy, and the blue swirls look fabulous! I also enjoyed that story, navigator :)

Thanks for the info! Unfortunately, I probably won't be taking a vacation that direction any time soon. I definitely want to check them out next time I'm back home visiting, though.

When I go there, I feel like I'm walking into an old hippie's garage :)

Looks gorgeous! I love all the layers!

I've been following this thread and I'm going to post once...only once, and may post a reply if I feel like it and/or if I feel the response to my comment is entirely free of hostility. Ok, here goes... :) I've been using the same glass mixing bowl for my lye mixture for four years (at least)...

I use disposable paper cups for measuring out my dry lye as well. I've been doing it that way for about four years and never had any problems. The leftover bits of lye tend to liquefy (not sure what that's called) so it's easier just to toss the cups.

Those look beautiful! I really like those particular colors and the gradation of them.

They also look like whale tales or a family of bats :) If you can reproduce it, use green as your color, and turn it upside it would make a lovely Christmas tree :)

Psh...those look gorgeous!

Ooh, I have a weakness for cookbooks too...but, also like Jencat, I end up looking online for recipes and don't bother looking through my piles of books :)

I figured out one of the reasons why I don't usually read fiction: I can't put the darn book down! I picked up a random read at a thrift store last week and finished it in 6 days (that's quick for me these days). It was called "A Short History of Tractors in Ukrainian." Not even half as dull as...

I read that: "3CPO." I know...Star Wars nerd :)

Wow. Those both look very lovely!

Awesome. Looks like a turkey tail :)

Very nice! Love the color/scent combo.

I live in a pretty moderate climate (Seattle area) and this winter we had some below-freezing temps. During that time and a while afterward, I saw olive oil in stores getting solid pieces in the bottom. Someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but I think that the solid pieces will stick around...

I just discovered them recently, but haven't ordered anything from them yet. I grew up about 45 minutes from South Bend and will definitely pay them a visit next time I'm home.
