Tonight we celebrate Earth Hour.. a time to turn off the lights and pay homage to mother nature! Sit by candle light... enjoy the moment and say a prayer for our kind mother! She is our mother, our home, our ecosystem, she is the earth beneath our feet!

I have been invited to sell my natural soaps and other goodies at Kingston Earth Hour Unplugged.. I will be in market square from 6:30pm till 9:30 pm tonight.. if you are at the event please come by for a visit... Jaimie-lyn (the awesome starfire witch) will be with me helping me out... and it is her brithday!

There will be an off the grid concert with the Gertrudes at 8pm and I have heard rumors of a fire show too! There will be free hot chocolate too!

Turn off those lights and give mother nature a rest! Happy Earth Hour Folks...

A Wish for the NEW Year!

My Wish this New Year is that we all take a little time to make a difference in the world around us. THere are so many ways to do this from simple to big! Something I have been doing is buying 3 to 5 extra grocery items and donating them to the food bank each time I shop! If all of us start doing this it will help the fooodbank feed so very many hungry local families and children...
Take the time to help a stranger, our world has become so rushed that we often forget to notice those around us and those in need! Give a random gift to a random person I promise you it will make you both feel warm inside :) Give thanks for all the wonderful things in your life and find ways to make positive change! We are in control of our destiny so let's make it an awesome one!

I wish you all a most wonderful New Year of life ! May this year be filled with wonder and surprise!

Happy Showering :)

Australian red clay soap !!!

Red soap.. I mean really red soap ! Clay clay clay.... hooray for clay... it's a natural way to colour soap and its good for your skin. Now that is a great combination.... So I used my new red australian clay to make a rose soap... and it looks amazing... deep rich burgundy red with ground rose petals... and it smells good too! orange and rose... and afew other goodies in there too... It will be ready in 4 weeks and I am having a very hard time waiting for it. That is one thing about soap making that is very very hard.. it is a big old lesson in patience. You make it but you can't use for weeks and weeks. So that means if you make a mistake you won't know for a whole month or more... I have been very fortunate thus far and have only had one bad batch of soap.... I have ordered french clay in green and in pink and plan to make some lovely soap creations soon.. I think a swirled lemon lime bar is in order... and a pink clay baby soap too !

The specials for following my blog are any 5 bath bombs for $12 (offer good till the end of next week) and a new special... buy any 5 bars of soap and get a free lip balm !!!! also good till next friday !!!! come visit me and see what I have in stock... if you live far away I can ship to you :)

Happy showering folks...

A vision of soap !

So here I am sitting here trying so very hard to write about my life and soap making... hmmm....
While I sit here images of lemon poppyseed soap whirl through my head..... and I hear a little voice saying " ya make soap... it smells great, its natural, and people like it" so there it is ! I make soap. I make soap that looks and smells good enough to eat.. a child once took a bite out of a bar of my lemon poppyseed soap thinking it was candy! Soap is my new passion.. I love to make it, I love to use it, I love to share it and I love to sell it... I get more excited about creating a new soap recipe than I do about shopping (and I love shopping). Making soap is like art and science all in one! It takes a creative mind, precise math, and a nose for scent blending...and a boat load of patience.... Did you know it takes 4-6 weeks for a bar of soap to cure...that means that everytime I create a new recipe I can't test it out for ages... patience patience and more patience... but when its finally ready its like mini christmas.... a fancy little bar of soap all for me, made by me... :) My favourite soap thus far is lime twist, and lemon poppyseed... both smell like a wee bit of heaven.. and they make bath time a lot more fun ;) If you like soap you should give mine a try... www.shivasdelight.com

So there it is, my first blog about soap making and my life! Much more to come but for now.. goodnight.

pleasant dreams and happy showering

Casey :)
