Good Morning,
We didn't have any Markets over the last week end and I am glad we didn't
as Saturday it reached 41 degrees Sunday was a mere 32 degrees as a Southerly wind started up through the night. I stayed inside and labelled everything I could just so I could sit under a fan. We close our house up and pull the curtains and while it does heat up it is not to bad with the fans going. If it gets to bad we put on the air conditioner.
We will make up for it this weekend coming as we have two busy markets in Toowoomba to go to. If you want to come and buy some great handmade soaps and other body products we will be at the Toowoomba Farmers Market at the showgrounds on Saturday and The Handmade Expo and Vintage Market at Clive Berghoffer Centre at the University.
I have been busy making stock and labelling for over a week now as have had a few orders to fill as well as restocking the Market boxes. It is amazing how much time I spend on doing this part as I don't really notice it when everything is fully stocked and I just have to make a couple of things each week as they sell but when the whole stock starts to get low it is a big job to get it all done and be ready for the next market. Just as well as it is a labour of love as I do everything myself as well as kepping the house and garden going. Somethings fall by the wayside or else I get help in for the outside bits.
Well Christmas has snuck up again and will be here before we know it. I must get organised there as well as have the tree to get out and my market decorations probably need looking at and some replacing plus I need to make the Christmas cake and pudding as well. I think a few Nanny Naps will go by the wayside in the next few weeks as there doesn't seem to be enough time.
I like to put my feet up for a couple of hours after lunch but can do without it I guess.
In the soap room I have been drying and infusing dandelion flowers and will be cutting some Lemongrass and trying that as well then while the dehydrator is out and going I want to dry a lot of my herbs so that I can make my own mixed herbs for the kitchen or possibly infuse some in oil for soaps and balms etc, who knows where I will end up putting them.
While I am in the soap room I need to do another order as some of my ingredients need replacing so if you want something in particular made then now is the time to ask as the suppliers are so busy this time of the year and some will be closing soon for their breaks.
Well that is all for my ramble today I am off to do more labelling so take care and be kind to each other.
Blessings.
