Newly-poured bar of soap, 5-19-08

Attention, west coast relatives:

The soap you have requested was made and poured into molds this evening. I cannot guarantee that the blue color (which I really like) will survive; frequently, colors added during the soapmaking process fade from the alkalinity of the lye during the next day or two, before the vast majority of the lye has had the chance to saponify. But we’ll see how it goes.

It will be about a month before the soap has cured sufficiently and I can ship it to you; by that time, you will be looking forward to your move and I will consult with you further about whether to send the soap or save it for you to pick up in Tennessee on your way.

That is all.

    You're fascinating.
