My annual cook-till-ya-drop fest has begun

My annual cook-till-ya-drop fest has begun. I started with pumpkin cheesecake and apple pie. Later today is Sam's spice cake and stuffing. I'm also going to whip up various bread items tomorrow for Thanksgiving and Sam's birthday. I can tell this is going to be ongoing, as we have the two events so close to each other.



Jamie's dad is coming over today

Jamie's dad is coming over today. Hopefully we'll get a chance to put in the bushes he brought last week. We moved all of the roses from the front to the back. I'm hoping they survive the transition. There's tons of yardwork to do these days. I'm hoping we get a chance to actually do some.

The soap still needs to be cut, then wrapped and readied for presents. No big surprise what everyone is getting for Christmas. :)



My soap projects continue

My soap projects continue. Last weekend, I donned goggles and mixed up the soap, lye, oatmeal, and honey. Unfortunately, I didn't get the proportions of oil quite right and I had a few days of fretting hoping it would set. Finally, after weeks of poking and prodding, it seems that the batch did turn out okay. So, everyone's getting soap from Christmas.
