Soap cake
Last week I collected together some left over soap bits and decided to turn them into a few new bars of soap.
I put the pieces into a pot and covered it with boiling water (probaby about a cup) and left to sit for an hour or so until the pieces softened.
I then mashed them all up to make a big gloopy mess, put it on the stove to boil for a few minutes (just to kill any bugs that might be lurking around).
I then set it to cool and left it to sit for a few days until it was firm and had shrunk from the sides of the pot. Tipped it out, cut it up and have stored it till we need it.
