Hello Cupcakes,
Here is my latest soap creation. For some reason, I could not post here, so they are on the right. They are made of glycerin soap with aloe and foaming bath whip. The cupcakes are Strawberry and the frosting is Vanilla Cream. I am waiting for packaging which looks like a cupcake. I am still working on the name. Today they are Bath Cakes; I was thinking of Soap Cakes or Tub Cakes. Any suggestions?

Chocolate

Hello Fellow Chocolate Lovers,

Today has been quiet but productive. I did a little soap making, gardening, and reading. I have also been thinking about my C List which will be completed and posted soon. One of the first things I wrote on my list was chocolate. It was beat only by coffee, which I happened to be drinking at the time. Chocolate is such a heavenly treat, and now it is even considered healthy. An ounce of dark anti-oxident rich chocolate is actually good for you. A pint of Ben and Jerry's triple chocolate whatever would not be a good substitute. But we already know that, don't we.


By the way, if you are looking for a sinfully delicious treat, try Oooh Fudge, pictured above. Carol of Clutterbug Studio makes the best fudge from scratch. It truly is a bit of Chocolate Heaven. One taste, and you will be hooked. As you can see, it is also beautifully packaged; it comes with its own serving spoon and it's all tied up in a pretty pink ribbon. Try some of Carol's own homemade fudge today. Taste the love!

My oh My! Is it a Pie? Whipped Cream? Well, it is whipped. It's a new product I created using lots and lots of Aloe. Aloe is such a wonderful ingredient. It soothes, moisturizes, and even helps heal the skin. It's Whipped Body Butter. So new, I have not even created the packaging for it. But soon, it will be available. So that's it for my Show and Tell today.

Do your Duty!

Here is a delightful quote that should remind us all what we need to add to our "To Do" list.

"There is no duty we so much underrate as the duty of being happy."

- Robert Louis Stevenson
