Good Morning,
After being very busy the last few weeks things have slowed down in the soap room so I have been out in the garden catching up on much needed work as well as Spring Cleaning the house. It is still cool here of a morning and I find it the best time to really get out and do all the heavier jobs in the garden although this year I am getting someone in as well to do pruning and clear off the shed roof as I just cannot do everything in the time I have.
Just one of the downside of things of getting older I guess.
We had a lovely time out at Mulgowie Markets last weekend and once again the weather was a total surprise as it was supposed to be a few showers and there was nothing but beautiful sunshine the whole time. As it was the long weekend there were quite a few campers there in their caravans and what a lovely spot they picked overlooking all the farm paddocks and the beautiful hills in the background. If only my rescued doggy was more people and dog friendly we would take the van out there and stay overnight as well.
I am going to be restocking the market boxes today as some lines just disappeared altogether off the tables last weekend then I am off to the chiropractor and onto Office Works to restock my paper and Ink supplies.
My brochures need reprinting and wouldn't you know it the printer wants more ink just as I want to do lots of printing.
All these little behind the scenes things that keep me on my toes and rushing off in the car for half a day as shopping isn't right on my doorstep here but for me it is better than living in a town as I have a beautiful vista from my back fence looking out over the cow paddocks and the hills in the background.
I have only made 2 soaps this week and will put photos up when they are ready. One was a Lavender made with Goats Milk and a little Coconut Milk as well but instead of trying to get an all over Lavender color as I never have much luck with that particular color so I just swirled a little color through the soap. The other one was my Skintastic made with Emu and Neem and lots of other goodies as I had run out of it altogether and someone wanted some. It smells divine and is really good for skin rashes. Will have to do a stocktake as I fill up boxes just in case I need some more of other soaps as well. I just knew having a quiet week was to good to be true.
Well must away and get on with the housework before heading into the soap room so I hope you all have a very happy week and be kind to each other.
Blessings.
