We've had a busy day today. We were supposed to go swimming but the weather was so miserable we didn't fancy it, so instead we made cream toffee, I made 14 Christmas cards and then this evening I finished the scarf (they'll be a photo of that tomorrow as ds1 took it to bed with him). Now ds2 would like a scarf too - this is great as he isn't usually bothered by things I make at all. The kids also want to make some different sweets to give as presents so that's another one for the list.
Also, one of the lovely mamas off the Green Parent forum has posted a recipe for bath melts (with coca butter) so I might just have to add them to the list too.
I ordered some beeswax off ebay 2 days ago and it arrived this morning. It smells absolutely gorgeous. Hopefully I'll have a recipe for some olive oil and beeswax lipbalm from the GP forum, and I would like to make some walnut candles with the kids that we saw in the Living Crafts magazine.
Here's a photo of the soft toffee that we made earlier. It was really easy but it's not really a toffee texture - not sure we'll make this one again (although I might have a fight with the rest of the family about that).
