Christmas

[Hazel]

My bum doesn't get into gear. He just sits on the couch, drinks beer and watches TV.

I knew what you meant. I just couldn't resist replying with American vernacular. :wink:

 

[Relle]

I know :wink: and it took me a while to find those smilies, you got me started on them.

 

[Hazel]

Hmm...that one seems to have become a favorite of yours. Keep it up and you'll never see this -->

 

[Relle]

I love that one just because it reminds me of Madagascar the movie. OK, if I don't get my present I'll send this over in the mail.

 

[Hazel]

Umm...what was your address again?

 

[Relle]

I am so far behind, i have made three batches or orange and cinnamon, but each batch went to trace too quickly, so they are usable but ugly to give away. I am going to have to think of something else.

Try making the batch as a HP

[DragonQueenHHP]

Ah well, not made hp before, plus i have cured them all now, i will use these myself, and for clothes washing. I have six more batches curing and they are all fine. I did a fo for the cinnamon and orange, but it is not the same.

47 shop lifting ,ooops, I mean, shopping days 'til Xmas. I heard that from the weather man this morning.

 

[Hazel]

The weather man likes five finger discounts?

Oh dear christmas is making nervous...
I'm giving a body cream and a hand/foot cream (cant choose). But i just dont know when it would be best to make it.
Would it be ok if i make them already or should they be made as close as possible to christmas?
Last year i believe i made them in november and all was fine. But there's always room for improvement, what do you think?

 

[Hazel]

I think you should do it whenever you feel like it. You've made the cream before so you already know how stable it is and how well the fragrance lasts in it. Also, consider how busy you might be closer to Christmas. It might be better to do it when you aren't feeling rushed to get it done. I prefer making gifts early so I have time to make something else if I have a last minute idea. But this is just my opinion.
