Saponification Emulsification I Need A Vacation...BOOM, CHUCK
As I sit here, near the very end of April, contemplating what delectable and unique concoctions will emerge from the IllinoisJo kitchen, I realized that I've become more than what I set out to be. A simple soap maker, as it were, would not be so simple. I surmise that the whole is indeed truly greater than the sum of its parts. If I surmise correctly then there may be, at least, a small chance that IJ is and will be ever greater than its many perpetually moving parts. The delicate dance between art and practicality that must be executed has me feeling a bit reminiscent of the BOOM CHUCK, BOOM BOOMBOOM CHUCK... BOOM CHUCK, BOOM BOOMBOOM CHUCK of that stupid dance movie with Patrick Swayze. "Will olive oil be the Jennifer Grey of my new recipe", I ask myself, as I picture it being gracefully and elegantly twirled above the head of its love interest coconut oil. Oh coconut oil, I've had the time of my life and I owe it all to you! Well, not really. Actually one of my favorite recipes has only 30% coconut oil. Twirl away my lovely oil! |
