I've been hard at work lately! I'm making scarves and hats for a lot of people for Christmas this year.

I have enough oil to make one batch of soap, so I need to get on buying some more. I have been trying to find autumn fragrances like pumpkin, cinnamon, etc, but most of the ones I have found at the craft store are for home fragrance use, and not recommended for soaps or lotions. I'll probably have to order something online instead, or from Soap Opera in Iowa City.

So plans are in the works to develop and expand the soaps. I'm going to add bath salts to the mix as soon as I can afford to do so. In the mean time I am working on marketing ideas and promotions and all the other stuff that goes with trying to expand a small enterprise into a self-sustaining entity.

But enough of that for now. I'm pretty far behind on the NaNo word count, and my sister-in-law is coming in a little while for a write-in. So I am off for now.

Good night, everyone.
