No more Pumpkin Spice Soap! Well, I believe there may be two bars left at the shop. I might nab them! I'm not a huge pumpkin spice fan simply because the scent can smell different depending on the fragrance manufacture. I love ours! It could be possible I'm a little biased, as well.
That sugary pound cake sitting with little hand made marshmallow bags was a holiday treat a few years back. I printed an adorable Susan Branch recipe on the label. I contacted Susan for permission to use her art work, and she replied with the nicest response. You know, she's something special! That holiday season, I made the homemade marshmallows and also mixed homemade cocoa. The recipe was really good. Since I don't do a lot of processed sugar anymore, those were the days! It does make a really nice gift. Here's a great recipe. I love Alton Brown! Here's his homemade marshmallow recipe. I will share that I'm not a fan of gelatin. I used agar agar powder.
I located some French inspired grain sack fabric from a supplier, and modified the bittersweet heat pillow. Love, love the grainy fabric!
Since I've made the holiday collection of soap, now it's time to find resting places for the thousands of bars. I'm loading up my car with all those soap bars and placing them in every nook available.
I'm on the hunt for a Norfolk Pine... They usually stock them around this time of year. That will be our Christmas tree at the shop.
Little things...
Keep the faith.
