The Goldendale Farmers Market Holiday Bazaar is held the first or second weekend of December. My cold process soap needs a minimum of 8 weeks to fully cure and be at it's best. So I need to be wrapping up my soaping by the first week of October. That means I have 1 month to get all of my soaping done.
Yikes.
Sammy went and got our supply of beef fat from some local friends a week ago. Then, over the course of a few days, he and Timothy spent hours cutting, grinding, and rendering the fat down, then straining and getting it in the fridge to harden.
I've had my table all set up and ready to go for a few days now, haha.
Finally time to start soaping!!!
And check out my new pull-out soap curing shelves Sammy built me! They are in my laundry room. It was getting really difficult to have all the soap curing on my bookshelf and desk in my bedroom, so this will help a lot. I won't be able to fit ALL the soap here, so I'll still have to cure some elsewhere, but it'll be nice to not have tons of soap curing in my room.
With love,
Mama Hauck
