More Bio-Soap...maybe

This afternoon I attempted to make another batch of glycerin soap. This time I actually followed the recipe instead of just estimating all the amounts. Unfortunately, I wasn't in the mood to wait for the glycerin to cool down some (and my pot was quite full), so I ended up with a HUGE mess in the kitchen when the pot boiled over all over the place. Now, I'm not sure if the soap is going to come out the way it should since I lost so much (it might be short of lye); but I guess well see how it turns out in a week or so of curing.

This time I also added in some ground up oatmeal and a peppermint scent essential oil. If it does end up thickening up, it should have a better smell and ex foliate more easily. If it doesn't thicken, I'll either see how it works as a liquid soap or maybe I'll try to add more lye and see what happens..... everything is just an experiment so far anyway. What fun.
