Last night was a special-stay-up-late and watch t.v. kind of night. I had a burst of energy and wanted to make stuff. So, I accomplished a few things.
-
Made Liquid Soap
-
Made No-bake cookies
-
Made Crock Pot or Slow Cooker Apple Butter
About an hour before the show – I grated up an Ivory Bar to make some Liquid Soap. This was my first time and it was super cheap and easy! I will do this again! Just glycerin, bar of soap and water!
This was super easy!
I found instructions on how to make liquid soap over here, at Savvy Housekeeping. My kids woke up this morning – saying “Mom – that soap works great!” I added lavender and lemon essential oils to make it smell better.
Right before our show – my youngest and I whipped up some
Loved these when I was young and I still do! Plus they are so simple!
We have been watching Top Shot on the History Channel.
My kids attend a Christian camp every summer and the Camp Director was on the show. Last night was the finale and Dustin actually won $100,000! We were so excited and thrilled to see an honorable Christian young man stay humble and beat out other guys, including Navy Seals, Border Patrol Agents, and other top shooters.
As we were watching, I peeled apples – 8 lbs worth – for some Crock Pot Apple Butter. My Step-Grandma used to make the BEST Apple Butter – I hope this is close! I got the recipe from Money Saving Mom.
It will be ready in a few hours to try out!
Speaking of apples – I’ve never seen an apple tree with apples on it. I can only imagine. In this part of Texas – we have is Orange, Lime and Grapefruit Trees. So, I’m not complaining.
It does call for Brown Sugar – which I was out of – so I used this recipe to Make My Own Brown Sugar! EASY and FAST!
Have you been inspired by something? What have you made lately?
Blessings to you! You are loved!
