Hmmm seeing your mention of apple and pine make me think I might finally be able to use the fir that's been sitting on my shelf. Apple/pine would be an interesting candle. I bought it to use in a pine tar soap, then smelled it, and knew I didn't want my soap to smell like pine-sol. I'd considered using it to make a laundry soap and never got around to it - lack of interest in laundry, I guess. Thanks for the idea. Will
