Soap
Soap
Making!! This mysterious craft has always interested me.
How did someone make those creamy hunks of lather that bears
no resemblance to those harsh bars found in stores other
then possibly the shape? I had read enough to know that
the ingredients in the store bought bars were not good for
my skin to say nothing of the chemicals entering my body.
I could not even pronounce the ingredients and what did
they mean?

Victoria
is the capital of British Columbia situated on Vancouver
Island and is one of the premier travel destinations in
the World.
Located
on the southeastern tip of Vancouver Island, overlooking
the Strait of Juan de Fuca, the City
of Victoria and surrounding municipalities referred
to as Greater Victoria, have a population of more than 350,000
and is the largest urban area on Vancouver Island and the
15th largest city metropolitan area in Canada. The municipalities
include Victoria, Saanich,
Oak Bay
and Esquimalt.
Victoria
BC is well-known for its disproportionately large retiree
population. Retirees throughout Canada are drawn to Victoria's
mild climate, beautiful scenery, year-round golf season,
and generally easy-going pace of life. An historically popular
cliché about Victoria is that it is for "the
newly wed and nearly dead!"
The
labour shortages and high cost of housing seem to mirror
the economic trends of other booming Canadian cities.
Victoria
has a temperate climate classified as Marine west coast
with mild, damp winters and relatively dry and mild summers.
The rain shadow effect also means that Victoria gets more
sunshine than surrounding areas. With 2,223 hours of sun
annually, Victoria is one of the sunniest places in British
Columbia, and gets more sunshine than most other cities
in Canada except those in the southern Prairies. The benefits
of Victoria's climate are evident through the city's gardens.
Popular
tourist attractions include Butchart
Gardens, whale watching, The Royal
BC Museum & Imax
Theatre and an environment full of natural vistas, ecosystems,
and vegetation. Fish, hunt, hike, bike, golf, site see,
scuba dive or sail, the outdoors on Vancouver Island is
without match for recreation and sport.
Victoria's
secret is its' SLOW pace - the perfect setting for sunset
walks or an early morning sunrise! Take a leisurely stroll
through Gold Stream Parks rain forest taking in the
wonderful aroma of moss covered trees or a much daring trek
up the steep rugged trail of Mt. Finlayson. Beach lovers
are in for a thrill. Sparkling white sand, abundant wild
birds and big shady trees.
If
you are set to explore Vancouver Island and heading north
over the Malahat, drop in and visit Duncan
in the Cowichan
Valley and take the short trip to Honeymoon
Bay and stay at the Honeymoon Bay Retreat, great relaxing
Vancouver
Island resort accommodation.

Candle
Traditional candles are known to cause soot in and around
the general area they are burning. Soot is caused by the
toxic elements in the traditional candles that are released
when ignited.
* Soy
Wax candles are made from 100% all natural Soybeans (hydrogenated
Soybean oil).
* Soy Wax is environmentally friendly and biodegradable.
* Soy Wax is made from 100% soybeans, a renewable resource.
* Soy Wax is non toxic, produces little soot and therefore
burns cleaner.
* Soy Wax burns at a lower temperature and therefore can
last up to 50% longer.
* Soy Wax is easily cleaned up with soap and hot water,
eliminating solvents.
* Soy Wax has a great scent "throw" which means
it fills the room.
