Let's focus on the positive, shall we?
Oct. 10th, 2010 09:41 amNow that I have *that* out of my system.....let's see...this weekend hasn't been a total bust.
1. 3 batches of soap on Friday
2. 3 batches of soap on Saturday
I cut all 6 today - wow. (I do have photos of the pre-cut logs, and I'll upload them - LATER. Am not tempting Murphy any more) I have 4 goats' milk batches (all in different colors/scents), 1 coffee batch, and 1 "gastille" - goats' milk, olive oil, and coconut. Not quite a true castille, due to the coconut, but....24 oz olive oil and 8 oz coconut. THAT one smells divine (Frankinsense and Myrrh)..the rest are interesting. We'll see how they cure out!
Sweet Geek made butter yesterday - it's white, of course, which is odd, but it's sweet and creamy. He figured out that you can use a turkey baster to suck off the cream, so that's what he did. :lol: I'm looking forward to NOT buying any dairy at all in the near future!
I managed to get all my ringtones and photos over to the new phone......yeah, small, but still a success.
I've managed to get both children into learning Hebrew....U-talk is fun! I'm looking at getting the full version on CD for the Mac (it's only $30), but the "lite" version SG has on the iPad works and is pretty easy. I like my WordLite, but all it has is a flashcard option - U-talk has an "easy" game, that's like "Memory", and it has an "easy +" where they give you 4 pictures and you have to id the word. We haven't tried the "hard" game yet; we're having too much fun with the easy and easy+ ones.
Off to reboot the laundry!
