We received our essential oils and natural colors order! We also finished up the "Hippies and Oranges", so we are half way through restocking (hopefully an eternal battle). This week we will most likely make "Poppy Fields" and "Minty Fresh". Another neat side quest we are on is "the adventures of EPA guidelines for insect repellent". So it turns out insect repellents falls under the regulation of the EPA and not the FDA. I would have assumed it was FDA and would be a drug. But, it is considered a pesticide! Well, we should be able to create an all natural bug repellent (we have already been experimenting) because we are using "minimum risk pesticides". It sure is a lot of fun figuring out all the federal rules trying to keep us safe, warm and fuzzy. An email was sent out to the state asking for some clarifications and details if there are any further state requirements.

This picture reminds of Halloween, the soap little hay bales and the tiny oranges are pumpkins!
