I’m a wife, mom, and a self proclaimed soap nerd with an entrepreneurial spirit-living in Lubbock Texas, (a place best known for our expansive horizon, cotton,and as the birth place of Buddy Holly.)I guess you might say I’ve got a serious addiction to all things soap related. Come hang out, as I share my adventures in a world where chemistry meets art.
“Homemade soap feels good: soft, rich, enveloping, soothing. The lather is dense and penetrating rather than thin and airy. It leaves an emollient film on your skin that makes it feel soft and sensuous. Homemade soap is comforting in ways which manufactured soap can never be: its look, its weight, its bulk, how it feels in your hands, looks in its dish. There is something ineffable about homemade soap. It’s not homogenized, pasteurized, deodorized, sanitized or synthesized - it’s one of a kind, every bar different, each unique. It is idiosyncratic in the way of all homemade and handmade things.”
@ Becky,your Iris will be open in no time-that's how they roll. Are yours just all white or white and some thing else like a touch of pink or purple?
@ Amy,your mother should have to divide her Iris's fairly often since they grow from rhizomes. Iris' are sooo easy to grow-even I can grow them and my house is the house where healthy plants come to die.

So beautiful -it made me run out back and check my iris....still just buds, but the white is showing! Thanks for sharing Miss Michele! :)
Beautiful!! My mom has LOTS of irises, and I sadly have none. :( Thank you for sharing yours!!
I do, however, have some calendula and zinnias coming up from the seeds we planted on Easter Sunday!!
