Yes, I know, you missed me.  I took off from attending the Vancouver Farmers Market today to stay home with my husband and son.  It’s been a grand day.  I made three different batches of handmade soap today and I am so excited about them.  I can’t wait to take all three of these batches of soap out of the mold tomorrow.   The fragrances are all essential oil blends.  I was a little apprehensive cause these are new blends and you never know how things are going to go in the handmade soap making process.  Two of the blends contained essential oils that are known to seize up quick.  That means you have soap on a stick!  To help this situation I added my fragrance blends directly to the warm oils prior to adding the lye solution.  This really helps but forget about any fancy swirls.    I’ve been resisting peaking.  Trust me it’s been difficult.  For now they are under wraps so to speak.  I’ll be posting photos and the blends tomorrow.
