Soap!
Yesterday was a tough day for us. We lost a little companion and it was very hard to be motivated to do much of anything.
(I don't want to make this a sad post, so I will leave it at that.)
I spent most of the morning just sitting and being sad, but then I knew I had to get moving and do something to feel better. It was just too hot yesterday to fire up the dye-pots that late in the day, but I did have an order for some soap that I had run out of, so an afternoon of soaping sounded pretty good.
I keep most of my soaping supplies in a primitive type cupboard in our kitchen and as soon as I opened it all of those wonderful scents just made me smile. I knew I had made the right decision to cook soap.
The blend that you see above is called Moroccan Spice which is a wonderful unisex scent and one of my best sellers. As I made my downstairs this morning the scent of the freshly curing soap made my morning a little brighter.
Sometimes you just have to look for the reasons to smile in a day..even a sad day. The are usually there if you look hard enough. 😉
Have a wonderful day!

Hugs. So sorry! 😦 I’m guessing it was a dog? Never easy to lose a loved pet.

So sorry about Bliss. Glad you found something that made you smile. Too bad you don’t have a scratch and sniff feature here. 🙂 Saw a bee and thought of you and…. the Bee Song. Lol.

I’m so sorry for your loss. I’m babying our Tippy cat now as he had a stroke a few weeks ago, and thankfully is improving steadily. Looking forward to receiving the lovely soap. Thank you.
