It’s cold here too. Our high was below freezing and it’s currently 16F at 6pm. We are in for more cold. I still prefer this to the hot summers of North Carolina.
Today I made a batch of Buffy Bars, I have decided I can’t live without one in my shower for dry winter skin. Then I made three scents of shower steamers. Let me just rant for a minute…. If the first batch I made (last month) had been this stinking hard I would have chucked it all in the trash and never attempted again. The first round went pretty well, orange/menthol. The second batch was spearmint/menthol. I couldn’t get the ratio of wet to dry ingredients balanced. I probably made 15-20 attempts to get the four pucks that I made. Batch 3 was my sinus relief blend and that was probably another 10-15 attempts to get 4 finished pucks. Geeze. Yes, there was cursing. I learned some stuff that will hopefully remember next time.
