Soaping with my Buddy

[artemis]

Gaius (11 yrs) is the only kid home this week. What did he want to do? Make soap! He picked Rosemary and lavender EOs and his own blend of herbal tea as the water. He measured everything and did the hanger swirl himself.

That looks awesome!

Way to go Gaius! Those are great looking soaps. You should be very proud of them.

You must be one proud papa! I wish I had a cool kid to soap with. Quick question -- How did you/he handle making the lye solution???

 

[Cindy2428]

Very nice - a wonderful memory for both of you

 

[The Efficacious Gentleman]

Quick question -- How did you/he handle making the lye solution???

He says, "with a spatula and a container."

I always thought Artemis is a Mom... Maybe it's the way he/she describe things.

Yes, actually, I am a mom.

That looks AWESOME Gaius! I bet it smells amazing too. You're a soap artist!

Good to know! Thank you, Gaius.

Yes, actually, I am a mom.

Oopsie... sorry about that.

I thought your avatar was a picture of "Artemis" -- you know, with the mustache I figured you were a guy.

That picture is of Gaius when he was in the third grade. The moustache is his George Washington Carver costume. He's the guy that started us soaping-- Gaius wanted to make peanut oil soap to show in his presentation at school.

Wow, what a talented guy!
