OK, we started out this week making soap!! We've run low on the Hemp Oil Soaps, so that's what we made. Three batches. They have to stay covered with towels or blankets to cure. We heat the oils, add the oils to the goat's milk soap, and then add the essential oils. The bottom picture is three batches covered with towels. The hemp oil are my favorite. They are even better for your skin than the regular bars. My daughter uses it for a skin condition and it works great!!!! Hers gets worse in hot, humid weather. After looking up the condition this is what we came up with:
Tiena vericolor (say “TIH-nee-uh VER-sih-kuh-Ler”) is a fungal infection that causes many small, flat spots on the skin that can be flaky or mildly itchy. The many small spots may blend into large patchy areas, usually on the oily parts of the upper body like the chest and back. The spots can be either lighter or darker than the skin around them.
It is also great on Psoriasis!!!! The skin condition might become worse, before getting better. The soap sort of draws it out, thus getting worse. Just keep using it has helped with both conditions, so we've been told by those who use it.

The scents of these soaps are great. Along with making your skin soft and helps with dry skin, you also smell delicious!!! We have some who use the soaps to make bathrooms, drawers, bedrooms, and even offices smell oh so good!
Here is another holiday recipe:
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 3/4 cup flour
3/4 cup (heaping full) sugar (plus sugar to sprinkle prior to baking)
1/2 cup shortening
1 large egg
1 teaspoon (heaping full) vanilla extract

When ready to decorate, remove the dough from the refrigerator and roll out on a flat working surface.
