Book Giveaway

My giveaway contest this week features the newly published book "The Natural Soap Chef" by Heidi Corley Barto.

Now I have never made soap myself but ever time I'm at the local Farmer's Market I gaze down at those wonderful bars of homemade soap and think "I could do that!"

This is just the book to teach you how and if you already make your own soap I know the recipes in this book will perk your interest.







I am seriously contemplating trying out this one......








and this one would make me feel I was back in Maui.


34 recipes in all with names like Ocean Rain, Pumpkin Spice, Cucumber Melon, Cranberry Pomegranate.....ok now I'm getting hungry!



So on to the particulars:

-"The Natural Soap Chef" is a soft cover, 6 1/2X 9 with 120 pages.

  2. I have never tried to make soap before but when I see those lovely names and soaps.... I should do so. But, unfortunately, I am not living in Canada or USA. I have to look on the internet for nice recipes.

    Everyone, living in Canada or USA, good luck in winning this adorable book.

  5. I happen to be looking for a good soap recipe for my husband's burn scars on his legs. His skin is so dry, so we have to be very careful what we use. It has gotten expensive, so I have been looking for something to help. This would be a great resource, thank you for the giveaway!

  6. This looks like a very interesting book. I have often thought of making soap just to make sure I know what is in our soap...all natural, etc. My husband has a lot of issues with different soaps due to the preservatives that are in store bought soaps.
