Herbal Salve & Lotion Bar week

I've not gotten back to scrapping after those two pages earlier in the week, because I've been busy working on more lotion bars and herbal salve since DH gave the last bottle of salve away a week or so ago. I figured I better get more made, so we didn't run out, if one of our animals got a wound that needed something put on it. I also like to make plenty, so I have it on hand, and don't have to stop to make more to soon...so I ended up with several bottles of salve and several bars of lotion bars as well as some push up tubes of the lotion bars.

I made two "flavors" of lotion bars, honeysuckle and tea tree/peppermint, so should be set for most of the summer I'd think...although will probably make another kind of lotion bar, if I get some essential oil I'm planning on getting when I go to that soap class next month.

Other than that, I've been up to my usual thing...and in the evenings we have been working on our garden. Not sure if it will do much for us...since we aren't the best gardeners, but if I'm lucky I'll be able to do some canning later in the summer!! I'm praying our tomato plants produce really well at the very least...but I'm also not going to hold my breath. LOL

I've also done a little bit of weeding (something I tend to NOT do, but figured maybe I better try to do a little bit most evenings if possible, and then maybe by the end of summer my front flower beds would look ok for a change. *giggle* Like I say, I am not to good at wanting to weed, so they tend to get over grown if I don't watch it. I guess I can handle pulling a few weeds every evening, so by the end of summer the flower beds in front of the house look like flower beds, instead of weed beds. We will see if I can keep it up or not. ROFL

Well no major plans here this weekend. Until I found that soap making class I was going to go have fun this weekend at a Renaissance Festival (late birthday activity) but decided I better not spend the money on gas, tickets and food when I had to pay for a soap class...so we are staying home this weekend instead. I've never been to this festival, and it's probably not near as good as the one I have been to, down by KC, but it might have been fun...so maybe we can try again next year....maybe. LOL

Anyway, I hope everyone has a safe weekend, and enjoy the extra day if you actually get the long weekend off! Hopefully I can get some scrapping done next week, but am not holding my breath, as we also have plans that could keep me busy. Take Care! :)
