You know you're a crazy soap person when...

[SassyKat6181]

Your stick blender dies. Yup -just happened!

 

[neeners]

oh no! that's sad. hope you weren't in the middle of mixing soap batter.....

 

[SassyKat6181]

sure was! Had to hand whisk for about 5 mins. Good thing I have nice forearm muscles from milking my goats. Lol

 

[jules92207]

I have a back up blender cause I always fear that exact thing!

 

[goji_fries]

I have two back upS no kidding

You know you're a crazy soap person when you have more back-ups for soaping than for cooking.

When you take time out of your day to meet with a wood worker so he can make a soap mold to your exact specifications. Yep.....I like the size of soap my old mold made, so I had to stick to it......

When you burn your thumb on the toaster, forget about it, then later wonder where that red welt came from and did you touch any soaps or work with lye today? Yup, second time I did that now.

You do hot process because you can't wait for the cure to try it out. You have "samples" in the kitchen & bathroom sinks AND the showers. You've only been doing this for six weeks, have already spent more than a house payment on your supplies and are looking at drying racks right now... I can't believe it's only been six weeks. Seriously!?

...my beloved stepson stops by as much to raid my soap stash as he does to visit with his Dad and me.

 

[jules92207]

Me too DeeAnna! My stepdaughters have never contacted me so much as when I started giving them soaps. Win win!

 

[DeeAnna]

Yes, defintely a win-win -- I love it!

I can't count how many bars of soap are in the shower because some of them are old, others are sample size, and a few of them are from other soapers. Also, I forget which bar was which once they get small.

You are too lazy to put on clothes/go to the grocery store and buy stuff for dinner and are sitting down to your bowl of Fruit Loops when you remember you mean to make cucumber soap in the morning and realize you are out of cucumber. And then when you get to the store, everything you see makes you wonder how it would work in soap. Has anyone tried cream cheese in soap? JK, kind of.

When you husband says "You use the oven more for soap than cooking"

 

[SeldomSeenAcres]

When your Facebook friends start asking "is that edible or is that soap?" when you post a picture of your latest soap creation.

 

[Unlimabun]

When you discover you have hidden OCD tendencies because you've begun checking tracking numbers of supply shipments at least 10 times a day to see if the status has changed!

When your Facebook friends start asking "is that edible or is that soap?" when you post a picture of your latest soap creation.

I actually took some small samples to a client's office the other day and one of the girls actually ATE one - even though I had clearly offered them to her as soap! :shock::shock::shock: She said it was horrible. Well, duh, it was SOAP!

 

[DeeAnna]

You know you're a crazy soap person when...

... a good friend offers you a sack of frozen beef fat and you are so overjoyed at the prospect of finally being able to soap with tallow that you give her a hug and do a happy dance.

...when your husband threatens to join the soap making forum so he can harass me to spend time with him and stop posting about soap...

I'll have to join his fishing forum then to get even.
