Allium in Bloom |
The last week has had crazy weather. It got really hot and
then a few days later it snowed!
|
Snow on 5-16 |
Meanwhile, I made soap. The cocoa butter soap almost sold
out, so I made more.
|
Original Buttercup |
I couldn’t resist adding the cookie cutter hearts I made
from the Suminagashi soap scraps.
|
New Buttercup Love |
This one has the same recipe but with honey.
|
I got this bee pic from "Birds and Blooms" magazine |
The original Hand Milled Tomato soap sold out, so I made
this cold processed version with added herbs and a little Tomato Leaf and
Coriander fragrance.
|
Cutting Tomato Soap |
I don’t know why it came out this peachy color, but it’s
still beautiful.
|
Fresh Cut Tomato Soap |
Next, I tried my hand at shampoo bars, which I named
“Lustrous Hair”. Since it PH tested at 8, I used it last night. My hair is soft
and lustrous, thus the name. It’s still too soft to sell, but it should be
ready in a month.

Shampoo Bars |
Last but not least, I had a little fun with colors and made
“Serendipity”.
|
Serendipity |
Today I must forget soap and get more veggies planted. The
bedding plants in the potting shed are outgrowing their containers and need to
go in the ground.
|
Pink tulips blooming with white Bleeding Heart and Flowering Quince in background |
Here’s some pics I just took of the last of the tulips.
|
Last day for these tulips. Whaaa! |
