    Bug Bite recipe for everyone

    A couple weeks ago, I woke up with at least a dozen mosquito bites on my arm. It was the one above the covers and my bedroom door was closed overnight. And oh yes, it was mosquitoes. The itch was driving me completely crazy. I was scratching so much I started bleeding. So I tried to find...

    Is it normal for a broken bone to hurt during a rainstorm?

    Last time I broke a bone, I was unconscious for a week, only remember small glimpses of the next few months, and a good six months after that are kind of hazy. I broke my ankle March 14. Was in a boot until the beginning of May and now have a brace. Most of the time, I don't even feel it now...

    Debating cancelling my Sams Club Card

    I'd love to know your opinions. They don't carry any of my oils, and butters. I can buy distilled water, lard and other oils from walmart at about the same prices, and the price for their nitrile gloves is the same as what I'd pay at Harbor Freight. I'm not sure the $50 fee is worth it all...

    Bathroom tile/tub replacement issues

    I'm trying to think of the name but I remember there are some places that can do a total replacement. Almost like a skin that goes over your tile and bathtub. Anyone here know what I'm talking about and where to find it? A bit more info, found out the grout in both our bathrooms is regular...

    What just happened and am I in trouble or something?

    I haven't been at market for weeks now because of my broken ankle. I just received this from the market coordinator today. And I know you all know whats been going on with Handcrafted Soapmakers Guild and their lobbyists and with Congress regarding small business makers at home. This email was...

    If I lose my business license, can I still sell?

    So I found out that the IRS can refuse to renew your business license if you are very small and are non profitable for several years in a row. They apparently consider it just an expensive hobby. They did renew it for this year but I'm worried about what will happen next year. In the past three...

    Yay for broken ankles

    Was delivering doordash and tripped on broken cement. There goes selling at markets for the next three months. And nothing sells online. Guess everything is on pause. And this year was going pretty well too. Crap!

    Hmm, never had a soap fail because it's too cold before.

    It's like playdough. Even after rebatch. How very interesting.

    Best alternative to goat's milk?

    I have had a request for milk soap and I just found out that the price for goats milk in my area has sky rocketed. Any suggestions for a great affordable alternative? I use buttermilk in my bath bombs.

    Anchor or Pyrex?

    I couldn't figure out what forum to put this under, sorry everyone. So today I was cleaning. I had my large and my small pyrex measuring cups on the counter. Well, needless to say they are now in a little box in tiny little shards. Which means I need new measuring cups for things like lotions...

    How do I begin using an accounting program for the coming year?

    So I'd like to start tracking my expenses, purchases, sales, etc. Wave is perfect for that but here's the thing. If I attach bank accounts, credit cards, etc, it's going to transfer all the information from the past year. I've tried doing this before and I got so frustrated with trying to...

    The name is Bubble Bayou. The name bounces so I want the font to be fun. TIA

    What do you think of this for a logo?

    Too simple? Too boring? Just right? It looks good? Any ideas welcome. I was thinking fun and light. The name bounces while it's said. Too dark? Not colorful enough? Too colorful? Design doesn't fit with the name?

    Has anyone tried GoImagine as an Etsy alternative to sell?

    I've looked at it and I'm really curious as to whether it's worth it.

    Costco or Sams Club?

    Went shopping for supplies at Sams Club today. 6 self checkouts and one employee manned checkout. Why am I paying these people a yearly fee when I'm checking myself out? Anyway, I'm trying to decide if it would be a better idea to go to Costco instead even though Costco is an hour drive away. I...

    Frustration near New Orleans

    Ok, so I could go into the weather and whatnot but everyone knows about that. One of my biggest frustrations with this area is that I can guarantee that if the rest of the country has something WE do NOT. I can't tell you the number of times I've looked for something specific and not been able...
