The new job went well yesterday. I did a lot of orientation, policy and procedure testing and staring at a computer screen. Thursday, I start some actual "job" stuff. I think I'll take today as a play day! It's been over a month since I made soap and I miss it!
A friend of mine sent me a box of essential and fragrance oils she found in a box of craft items from a yard sale so I decided to go through them this morning and see what I have. Lots and lots of different scents to play with. Some are labeled, some are not. The unlabeled are going in the "use for candle-making" pile. I haven't decided what scent I'm going with today but it will be a cold process soap and I will post the results on Friday.
My give away is for a year's subscription (6 issues) Mary Jane's Farm magazine.

This is not sponsored by MJF magazine and I, in no way, benefit from this give away other than the good feeling I get from sharing it with my readers. I received an offer for a free issue a few weeks ago and took advantage of it. The magazine is full of wonderful ideas and articles on everything from gardening secrets to featured artists to growing organic foods. Check out the link above and see some of the wonderful things this magazine has to offer.
To enter, leave me a comment telling me you want to win! Contest ends Monday, January 10th at 9:00 a.m. central time!

I want to win....no maybe I need to win because I live in a hectic city:)
I am entering to win but if I do win I would like my mother to have the subscription, She came from a farm atmoshere
Whitetail Woods Blog / Deer Hunting and Blackpowder Shooting at it’s best.
Of course it would be nice to win.....and I have never heard of that magazine before:)
Looks like a read I would love to sit down with.
Can't wait to see just what you create with all your smelly things above:))
Please enter my name for the magazine giveaway.
I would love to win Mary Janes Farm - the only store we had in the area who carried it is gone and I loved to get that as a special treat a few times a year. I still look at my old ones...thanks for the chance!
I would be afraid to make soap. Maybe some day I'll give it a try, but knowing me, and from what I've read about making it, I'm better off buying it from someone who enjoys making it. ;-)
I would prefer not to enter. You have lots of people who want to win and I have enough magazines, haha. :-)
P.S. I love your header photos!
I Want To Win :)
Have fun makin soap today!
I love MaryJane Farms!! I would sooo love to win! Have a beautiful Wednesday!
I received an offer to subscribe, but I misplaced it! Darn. So of course, it would be nice to win. :)
I would love to win but I would also like to know if you make a soap that would be good for a 14 year girl to wash with to help control acne. We are going through that stage. Thank you.
Count me in!!! I would love a subscription to MaryJanes Farm!
Crystal, I do have a recipe for a natural acne fighter soap. It's made with goat milk, ground oatmeal and honey. It does not have any scents or dyes added for a very natural cleansing. I am planning to make a batch of this in the next week or so. Email me with your address and I will send you a sample. If you get good results, I'll make a batch up to place in my Etsy store for future ordering.
Oh my, that magazine looks delightful!!!
We are working on our hobby farm around here and this magazine would help me plan some dreams :)
Although my husband might not like any more ideas than he already has from me ;)
Can't wait to see your soap.
Have a great day!
I would love to win.
I once sold some essential oils at a yard sale for our youth group. Someone had donated them. Good idea for the unlabeled ones to be used for candles!
I would like to win because the Lord has turned my heart toward a country way of living and I know I would enjoy it. Enjoy your soap making, I'm planning to start making my own soaps soon also. Can't wait to see your results!!! :)
I, too, would like to win. Our local library has one of her hard-back books and I loved her photography and ideas that I can put to work around here. Thanks for having this giveaway.

I want to win too........looks like a great magazine that I would enjoy reading!
Your giveaway is so timely. I would love to win this subscription. I received an offer to subscribe to this magazine recently, but the economy the way it is, we have not had the opportunity to increase our discretionary spending.
Congratulation on the great find of the essential oils. Soap making is on my to-do list of things to learn this year, time and money permitting.
Thank you for the great blog!
I'd love to win but I just recently subscribed and I am waiting on my first issue.

Ok great. I am trying to email you but it says it is not there. Help.
Thanks for pointing that out Crystal! I didn't get the link right when I changed over from my Christmas page. You can click on it now and it should work. I went ahead and made up a batch of that soap today. It's cold process so it will take about 4 weeks to cure but I will send it as soon as it is ready!
I would love to win! :)
I would really like to win this. I used to borrow them from someone I knew and I thought the magazine was a lot of fun.
I'd love to win this giveaway!

I'd love to win! Thanks for blogging. Found your blog from CITR. You guys are so encouraging! We're on a quarter acre, but hoping to move one of these days to have our own little farm. For now, it's just gardening and chickens, but I live vicariously through all of you at CITR. Love your blog here, too!
