OK, so I got it into my head that making my own soap would be a good idea. Cruising online for recipes I discovered that most recipes for cold pressed handmade soap make, like 10lbs at a time - so then I got to thinking ... maybe, if it comes out well, just maybe I could sell the stuff. I could definatley use a profitable hobby.
Anyway, the process (of curing etc.) seems to take a few weeks - and my latest thought was to test drive it as a Christmas gift - so time is of the essence.
I have been given permission to use the garage for this purpose... provided I do it safely, etc.
First I'm going to need a workbench ...
Well ... lets' see where this goes. No one on my Xmas list got their cookies last year either. Not that we didn't make 'em, it's just they weren't quite done on time. I believe I ate 6 or seven dozen cookies in the first week of January. So much for resolutions.
Why the blog? It could be that I just needed to share my new found enthusiasm. Or, more likely, I needed to say it out loud or it would never happen.
Anyway ... wish me luck.
