I've finally started on the gowns... I didn't get too far before my back started hurting too bad to keep it up, but it was a start. I, at least, got through the pattern and figured out what it is that I need to do. I also got all the pattern pieces cut and ironed... and a couple pieces cut.

My new class is starting...

sounds like your very busy good luck with the class

Congrats! Honestly, I still get cravings, but the thing is the food just doesn't taste as good as it used to, so the physical part of it, and being in a routine have enabled me to overpower the junk food. When I get PMS, I still eat certain things, but I'm so used to good foods now, that I mostly get hungry for those.

Yesterday was uncomfortable. Hubby's new roommate was there a good bit of the time we were. I just felt SO uncomfortable there. PLUS, she picked the only room with a view, and light as HER room. So, when (if we ever do again) we come over, we get to sit in a little dark cave of a room. She didn't pick the other kind of...

It was so funny. Yesterday I went to a yard sale and ended up getting a stand mixer for only $5. I was so tickled! I'm going to be using it to make my bath and body products... I though I was going to have to buy one retail for $70.... but nope, not this lady!!

I'm also thinking of making a few other things...

The more I talk to people about my "project", (Natural Bohemian website Natural Bohemian on Facebook), the more excited I get about being able to do an organic line. I've had several people express an interest...

YAY!

The Heather body butter turned out pretty good.

I'm looking forward to being able to buy more supplies. This time, I'm going to be getting deodorized cocoa butter, though. The chocolaty smell is just too much with some of these scents. Plus, I'll be getting new scents and the right labels, (I got the wrong ones this last time)... they work, but they're a little...

I'm in the process of making the 3rd scent I bought when I bought all the stuff to make body butter. (I bought Nag Champa, Lavender and Heather, I'm making Heather). I think it might be over powered by the natural cocoa butter, but I need to try.

Next time, when I buy more supplies, I'm totally getting deodorized cocoa butter!

Once I start selling...

I love the scent of Nag Champa!
wyoh:
I love it too, but I don't think it works well in the body butter I made. I'm going to try once more when I have deodorized butter to try it in. If I can't get it to smell right with that, I'll save it for making candles.

I tried a new scent yesterday; Nag Champa. I don't think it worked very well, but the kids like it. So, I need to ask around, I don't think it will be one that we start producing. I have one more scent to try, Heather.

I've gotten a few suggestions for other scents. I would love to hear any you can think of that you'd...

Thanks! I got really sick of it too. You could try upstate New york for something close-ish.smile

I'm a bit clueless in that area, I'm afraid. But I do like heather and a good rose fragrance. Almond too.

As for a real update...

I was able to get honey back in time for 4th of July. Things have been pretty good between us. I have to admit, he's been pretty randy since he got out, which has been nice. LOL!

Hubby has moved out. He's now in an apartment in the city with one of his friends.

We're still trying to figure out...
