I love the idea for the homemade bath salts! Do you have a ratio for sugar to Epsom salt?? And how do you mix the eo without dissolving the salts? Sorry! Now you've peaked my interest! I was thinking of doing some flavored cooking oils in fancy jars. Our jalapeño and salsa verde plants went nuts this year, I thought they'd make good decorative/flavored oils. Have you ever done those?
 
Guess what!?!? PIPS!!!!!!!! My little Silkies are hatching!!!! Over a week earlier than originally planned, as I suspected after candling!

Oh I'm worried and hope they hatch ok!!!! I'm so glad they're running ahead of schedule - I'm ready for my Esme to get off the nest and eating and drinking. The poor girl looks pitiful - her comb and wattles are all dull and droopy and sad looking! Ohhh I hope she's a good momma!

We did a little Halloween re-do tonight at my parents house so they could see the boys all dressed up and give them their treats. And so Liam could check out the jack-o-lanterns he helped my dad with! Here's the little guy!

SCM: Lions and tigers and chickens, oh my!! Cute kitties! My two youngest were transformers. They had a blast, I hope yours did too. Congrats on your new silkies! I've been curious about getting some. You'll have to let me know how everything goes and I'll live vicariously through you until I can get some myself!
