Who is your favorite scientist? Albert Einstein is one of mine and was one of the most amazing scientists! When I try to understand the theories that he posed my head spins. Just watching the fabric of space time bend to accommodate gravity makes me geek out! I love how science has rules and laws and things are predictable and will be able to be repeated. . . #alberteinstein #forscience #steampunkscifi #theoretical #spacetimecontinuum #gravityforce (at Murray, Iowa) https://www.instagram.com/p/BpikhUpFE2_/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ikxhna1ert8k

Soap batches are so much fun! Can you imagine heating coconut oil until it returns to a greasy liquid state, then adding a wood ash "extract" (lye) to the oil, then stirring vigorously for a long time until said oil begins to look like a pudding? And what?! If you leave it alone overnight it turns into a solid? I love that soap molecules break down and cling to dirt and oil! Soap is only a good cleaner when accompanied with water. Washing hands frequently is the best way to prevent illnesses, but the most important part hand washing is rinsing. Let the soap do it's job and carry the dirt and germs off in the rinsing. Wash with soap! Rinse it off! Stay healthy this fall. Give me a follow if you would like to join in the fun of watching my small business get on its' feet. ~ ~ ~ ~ #surprisinglyplainsoap #handmade #soapmaker #smallbusiness #soapmakers #vegan #crueltyfree #nosecretingredients #nopalmoil #crueltyfreebeauty #mylife #madscientist #chemistryisfun #transformationstory #smallbusinesslove #veganliving #crualtyfreesoap #vegansoaps #nolard (at Murray, Iowa) https://www.instagram.com/p/BojW-P6FGQz/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=s6zn77l1vdpp

What sights or sounds remind you of your parent's house? Anyone else here associate love and family and friends with this odd gadget? Anyone else hear the clanking as it did it's job faithfully. While my own mother didn't use it my husband does, and he's passing that knowledge down to my kids. Those times are few and far between as we both work hard to keep things afloat. He works two jobs and I work a job selling haircare, making handmade soaps to sell, and then the other all mama things. So one on one time with the kids in the kitchen (maybe I said too much) means alot to us and them. ¤¤¤ #guess #morecopper #copperspraypaint #wanabefoodie #copperaddiction #veganhaircare #mamathings #twojobs #theygrowfast #timewithfriends #mamainthekitchen #kitchengadgets #kidditos #surprisinglyplainsoap #glutenfreefood #mylife #completehealth #familyisimportant #papaiscool #crueltyfree #vegan #plantbased #maseca #littleoneslearn #kidslovecooking (at Murray, Iowa) https://www.instagram.com/p/Boiks-QFd2K/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=nqzjosmkfle5

Life in the past may have been painful and scarring, but I have experienced healing through forgiveness. In a small part my own spirit of forgiveness has helped the process. However complete healing occurred when granted by Someone who understands every fiber of my existence. The wounds I had were deep, but the recovery I experienced has been restful as I have entrusted the gaping, open, festering sore of my heart to competent hands that carry scars of my pain. If you are like me and need more than just physical healing, message me. I would love to listen and share the burden with you. #healingtheheart #mylife #completehealth #wholebodyhealth #eternalhealth #forgiveness #mindbodyspirit #heartwounds #scars #deepscars #recovery (at Murray, Iowa) https://www.instagram.com/p/BohnDhYF-Jm/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1g5wwf5kcrcoh
