I've read about beer soap, so I thought I'd give it a shot. I got some local stuff, Abita Amber, poured it into a glass, and let it sit in the fridge for I guess it's been 3 days. Then went outside in the grass expecting volcanos and fumes and all manner of scary things, but it behaved really well when I mixed the lye into it. Only thing was that it got a little applesaucey when I poured. And I got one of those silicone cupcake pans recently, figured I'd give it a try, and my recipe happens to be about the perfect amount for it. Anyway, here they are resting, I'm hoping they keep this nice light color.
