Bye Bye Summer



Peppers to freeze

 The last of the summer has shot by at warp speed with manic rounds of canning and freezing and drying.
Mugwort Root
My tincture line is growing. It’s amazing how the new heath-care (I call it sick-care) changes has had a boomerang effect and more of us are turning back to Nature where true healing is possible instead of just symptom management.

Christmas Cantata
My friend Caryn has an alpaca farm and asked me if I’d like to set up my mobile shop at her place for the national alpaca Farm Days at the end of the month. I compelled myself to sit quietly and contemplate the coming winter and its traditional holidays so I could plan some new soaps. It wasn’t easy! “Christmas Cantata” is the first of a series of three. This week I’ll make “Yuletide” and “Winter Wonderland”. The names are always subject to change, but I have a vision of the designs and the scents. I intend to cut some soaps smaller and bag for Christmas stocking-stuffers.
