Hiking Yesterday, Soaping Today!

I had a market stall at the Rhododendron Gardens on the weekend – was a gorgeous day out for visitors… sold a decent amount of soap, hung out with my Market Buddy Maureen and had a really good day.
Came home all enthused to dive in to restocking

First photo above is a nice subtle colour and fragrance ‘baby powder’

Today I did a double batch of cedar and saffron… always good to be stocked up on that!

Next was a loaf of the rose-geranium essential oil

This has sprinkles inside…

and lastly a Taiwan Swirl using the Lemongrass and Exotic Lime fragrance

I finished my big rustic basket…

Like some crazy birds nest!

I made up a hamper for the market stall but no-one really noticed it.
I think it would look great filled with veggies tho…

Yesterday was a superb day so we got out into the Sisters Hills for a hike

No wind either so the perfect hiking day!

We just kept on going until the time said we needed to double back so we weren’t hiking in the dark

Stopped for a picnic… nothing too gourmet

And an apple…

Always good to get out!

Hope everyone had a great weekend and a good start to the new week!
Take a leaf out of Pips Book and RELAX 🙂

Cheers!

  1. Lisa, the soaps once sliced are amazing. You have become quite the professional soap maker!
    Looks like you have had a nice few days. We’re having another very cold day, only high of 4 and snow flurries tonight. Too cold for late April.
    The chicken’s home is really taking shape. Kudos to you both!
    Hope your tooth issue is resolved. Take care.

    1. Thanks so much Judy! Its nice to get back into the soap making now that things have slowed up in other areas!
      Still waiting for the weather to perk up again so we can continue the chook house!
      Tooth behaving enough so life isn’t miserable there! 🙂 Just waiting for the extraction… eurgh! xx
