Comment on How to Make Soap by amysapothecary

Hi Suzanne
I made attempted your vanilla sugar dreams soap. I didn’t know which way I’d like more CP or HP so I did it both ways. At trace a took some soap aside and put it into molds to go the CP route then I cooked the rest for the HP process. My HP soap is super sticky and SOFT. So soft I can actually cut it with a butter knife. The CP stuff seems appropriately hard (it was much harder than the HP) Is this a function of HP or did I goof somehow? Thanks for your amazing posts. I am really enjoying this hobbyhttp://chickensintheroad.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wave.gif

I love natural gardening….never have really liked a regimented, formal look. I seek to replace grass with naturally-growing wildflowers, intentionally planted perennials, and shrubbery for little birds to hide in.

I startrd going natural a few years ago—gardening that is. I dont really like the look of a “formal” flower garden. Most of my gardens are flowers that friends have given me and wild flowers, I have hostas that go back 70 years. I love the way it looks, and I dont like mulch either, if someone notices weeds in my garden, they can feel free to pull them up.
I was looking at the third photo, are those chives in bloom?
I made the mistake several years ago of bring home a lemon balm plant, good grief, it is every where, I pull it up but can’t get all of the roots, but we have learned to get along with one another. Yup, au natural is the way to go.

I’m also a fan of natural gardening. Might as well go with the flow anyway! I never can tell which are the weeds.
Love your big blue ladybug! Did you make it?

Our goats have been escaping lately too. Maybe the planets are aligned funny?

Don’t ya just love that phrase “hanky-panky”. Wonder where it came from. I am assuming that is the Mister on the left, as you said Glory Bee was somewhat “more full-figured” ahem. I hope things work out. Would love to welcome a new calf in the new year. Good luck.

Well, if YOU were being photo’d from a nearby porch. . . you might keep the hanky-panky on the down low, too.
