A warm welcome back to the list goes out to Camille who has been absent the past few weeks due to her big move to the soaping state of Texas! I'm sure the main question on everyone's mind is "Were there or weren't there GBP's in  
the car on that long drive"? 

This month's funniest typo was awarded by a landslide to our favorite Floridian, Helen Parker! For those of you who missed it, I'm sure Helen would love for it to be seen in print again... The scene--Ivor posted a question on how to make HP soap, the answer--"Go to the FAG library! Directions there!" (I would like to note that Helen's funny error was a direct result of the brace that she has been forced to wear due to hand surgery)  

Word Twists 
I believe our favorite cottager, Chatzie, hit the nail on the head when she gave new meaning to the word 'digest mail' ...the list this month has been very busy what with all the new faces and discussions, keeping up with all the posts has been very hard for us mere mortals to do and we did in fact give poor Chatzie "in-digest-ion"!

Hot Tip of the Month 
Sent in by Glenda from The Dragon's Rose: "When I swirl my soap I do it in the soap kettle before I pour into the molds and it comes out excellent. I take 1-1 1/2 cups out of the main batch and add my colors then swirl it back in the main batch, then pour. This way I can use molds as well as PVC pipe." 

SSmick1@aol.com sent in a very useful website for those of you looking for suppliers of certain fragrances--say you are looking for a blueberry fragrance oil, well Felicia has done the homework for you on many different scents and listed many suppliers of those FO's...

Most Interesting Signature Lines 
Laura <lbruhns1@midsouth.rr.com> has once again entertained everyone with her huge collection of witty signature sayings--one of my favorites--"When a man talks dirty to a woman, it's sexual harassment. When a woman talks dirty to a man, it's $3.95 per minute." 

And last but not least, our in-house cat expert, Hel, again had me laughing and sent an important reminder to us cat lovers to keep our supplies out of reach of our pets. She left a large bag of dried peppermint on the counter and came back to find that her cat could now be used as an air freshener! 

Stay safe and happy soapin' to all of you!
