You can do the Heat Transfer Method. Add the hot lye mixture to the oils (no need to melt the butter and oils) blend to trace, add scent and pour into molds. As a professional soapmaker I have been doing this for yrars.

I cannot wait until you build your beautiful farmhouse …what a wonderful piece of land and to have a river to swim in that close is terrific. Nothing better than country farm living 🥰

Thank you!! We are excited!

Loved the recipes (and sourdough) and seeing your property. As a Mama (now Grandma) that had 3 children that were raised on a lake, I get your fear of water. Water should be respected and safety and rules from a very early age. I also think it is so important for everybody to learn how to swim. Have a great weekend Laura! Gonna start some sourdough very soon! Cannot wait!

Love the land and all your plans for it! So cool and exciting so beautiful!

I still have to try the sourdough in my bread machine. Always so much to look forward to; watching your channel. What a beautiful river for the kids to swim. Really great it is close by.

Thanks for sharing all that you do. Your baby…so, so adorable!😊

Love the health aspect of sourdough!! Ive Celiac disease and sourdough is all i can have, i also use Einkorn so that really helps!! Great idea, and video... blessings ❤❤

Great video! I sure wish I was able to have a clothesline I'd be using it and wouldn't care what my neighbors thought! Have a great wk end!

Love your videos and channel! Thanks for sharing.

HAPPY FRIDAY Laura, family, and fur babies. STTB

Such a fun video. A great way to spend the day with your babies. I can't believe you already got the pond filled in. Your property is so nice. I can see a beautiful home in that clearing. Ty.

Congratulations Lisa and family! 🎉 What a cutie! I had my 7th in February and had been used to prodromal labour happening off and on for at least a month, but this one it was only 3 times in the very last week. My 6th was my easiest most spiritual and painless birth and was almost identical to the 2 previous, only more in tune with the Lord. This birth was not like the other 3, and I almost expected it to be "as good" or easy as the last one. It did go well, but I struggled to let go and deeply relax and it was harder/longer getting to transition. I usually get the oxytocin shot and declined it this time and felt like I had slightly milder/shorter after cramping.

I love when you share content of your farmland and adventures there. I hope you can show more of that incoming videos. It would also be fun to see the process of you building your home on the farm as well.

I appreciate all the hard work you do to share all these inspiring meals and housework. I enjoy seeing the fraction of a second of your family. It makes it feel like more of a realistic day in the life of a homemaker while still being somewhat private. This is meant as a positive comment from a mom of many to another :) Pax et bonum.

I have always felt the same way about water. I never wanted it on our property, since it is difficult to properly monitor it when you are busy, but it is fun to go swimming when that is your focus. I love your channel!

Laura, so cool normally dilute lye in filtered water, before adding to any oils. Think I tried diluting it into something else before but saw in your video that you dilute it in coconut milk can only guess, that will help make it creamier?

Same problem. We tried so many DIY dish soaps before caving & switching to Palmolive free and clear that gets an "A" from EWG.

We will move into a new how next month, it has a glass top stove, I see you use your cast iron on it, no problems? I thought I couldn’t use cast iron on glass top range.

I've used cast iron for years on my glass top stove, just don't slide them so it doesn't scratch it. I don't usually heat higher than medium, I think I saw somewhere that higher can cause issues, but I dont remember, honestly it heats well at or below 2.

Does the bread machine have to have a sourdough setting? I have one but it doesn’t.

No, we’ve been making it now. We just picked up an older bread machine from a thrift store. We press the knead or dough function then let it rise then hit the start button. It’s very easy and is very good sandwich bread. I had to just do it so I could figure it out and it took a couple of tries to get it nice and big so just go for it, you’ll love it!

Were beef/hay farmers in WI.(on 200 acres) I would recommend looking into grazing cattle on the fields. Beef meat makes more income then hay at least here (square bales are $ 5.00 or less). We make 200+ 1,500 lb. round bales that we feed back to the animals. When we sell the meat we make $ 3,000+ on a whole animal & we almost always have our own 100% grass-fed beef(we also sell calves & have a waiting list (just our opinion ;) =
