Things to do

I’m planning for a very busy week and tonight was all about getting some soap packed up along with some bath fizzy’s made. This is the first year that I’ve made and sold bath fizzys and now that I think of it, it’s the first year that I’ve sold soap too. 

So I had no idea how much I would need and if I would need any to tell the truth. 

Well my business continues to grow which is exciting and like I said tonight was all about getting some soap delivered to some people who was interested in buying some for Christmas. I decided next year I need to have maybe double of what my inventory is this year and I’m just not sure where I’m going to put all that soap? I mean our laundry room is only so big! 

With the busy week coming up, I’m not planning on making any soap this week other than a batch of Grandma’s Lilacs. See I’m not trying to complain or anything… but I made a special batch a couple of months ago and sent it off to one of our friends who doesn’t  live very far away from us. I tried to deliver it to her house and then I finally thought that I would just mail it to her instead. Yea, what a mistake! 

At the same time I also mailed two other boxes to California with soap in it and found out that they were delivered with no issues so I didn’t think twice about the other box. Well it was never delivered! Arrrrgghhh!!! I made this batch of soap especially for our friend and sent her pretty much the whole batch. I can’t remember anytime when I mailed something when it wasn’t delivered. Well up to now that is. 

And yup, you guessed it. My shelf is bare of this type of soap. 

So I’m going to make a batch for her this week so it’ll be done by Christmas and then no other soap making until next week. I’m excited to spend some time getting some Valentines soap done and to replenish my inventory. 

Oh yea, I’ll also be making a bunch more Soap Fizzy’s next week. I think bath fizzy’s would be a great Valentines gift don’t you? 

Other than working on soap stuff, we had a special guest tonight on the farm, check it out

It’s Mom 

She packed her car and my brother also filled up his pickup with gifts for this coming weekend and brought them over tonight. I laughed when I saw this picture because with her red coat on it reminded me of Santa Claus 🙂 It’s kind of fitting if you ask me.
