The Soap Dish. #1
It all begins with an idea.
Hi Everyone,
Anna here. I've been home for almost a month now and I've been trying to organize my soap room. It's hard to get organiZed because I have so much stuff that I dearly need. The truth is, I'm afraid to get rid of anything because I think I will need it…eventually. We've all been there, I might need those scrunchies, even thought my hair is now cut in short Bob! You know what I mean. It's rough. So, what I've been doing is going through all my sh@#, I mean stuff and asking myself, when was the last time you used this. Then the little voice in my head says, but you might need it. It's tough. But anyway, that's what I've been trying to do.
I’ve been making a few new types of soap. They will be on the website soon. The first one is called Moo. It was made in honor of some friend’s pet cow. Mind you, I haven’t met Moo, but they talk about this cow so lovingly, I just had to make a soap. The soap is actually made with goats milk. I don’t know how I came up with this connection, LOL. Anyway, the bar is a massage bar that looks like udders and a cow hide type coloring. You have to see it to appreciate it. The other one looks somewhat like watermelon and scented the same. Also a new vanilla scented one. I will get them on the site asap. I will add a new recipe soon, so keep a look out for that. The main reason for this post is, I had to fix my blog. I wasn’t using the right tool to get it posted and the website was not posting them in order. So, if you are looking for a recipe I posted on the old format, message me and I will get that to you. Unfortunately, I lost all the past posts trying to correct my errors. Thanks for listening
Anna
The Soap Dish # Two
Sept. 2024
Summer is winding down and we will be soon into holiday season. My neighbors across the street have already got their Halloween decorations up and I haven’t even started pulling my out yet. It is only September, so I think I still have plenty of time. Today I spent time wrapping the last soaps I had on my drying racks. Lots of room now to make some new batches. I won’t be able to make the Peddlers Faire in Squaw Valley this weekend. My grandson and his girlfriend are coming to spend the weekend and I’m looking forward to the visit.
I’ve been spending a lot of time out in the garden lately, getting ready for Fall and Winter and just cleaning up. I will be trimming some of the lavender and making room for some Safron Crocus. I’m really looking forward to using the Safron as a natural colorant. I understand both the flowers and the pistols can be used. If any of you have tried coloring soap with Safron, I would love to hear from you.
This recipe is very easy and it really works wonders. It not only makes your cuticles look and feel smooth but its very nourishing for your fingernails as well.
Cuticle/Nail oil
Ingredients:
3 tsp Olive oil (preferrably pumice)
1/2 tsp Avocado oil
1 tsp Jojoba oil
10 drops Vit E oil
12 drops lavender essential oil
12 drops rosemary essential oil
12 drops lemon essential oil
Blend all ingredients together and pour into your containers. I like to use roller bottles because they are so easy for applying the oil. You can use dropper bottles or even small jars a dip a q tip or clean finger in to apply. Whatever works for you.
Hope you enjoy this recipe. Until next-time.
Anna

It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.
Don’t worry about sounding professional. Sound like you. There are over 1.5 billion websites out there, but your story is what’s going to separate this one from the rest. If you read the words back and don’t hear your own voice in your head, that’s a good sign you still have more work to do.
Be clear, be confident and don’t overthink it. The beauty of your story is that it’s going to continue to evolve and your site can evolve with it. Your goal should be to make it feel right for right now. Later will take care of itself. It always does.
