Nobody is Reading Our Stuff (and it’s hot).

Munchkin.Another.Silly.ShotI am feeling a bit disheartened because I think I am writing at a brick wall.  As usual, I try to write a post everyday but my Stats keep on dropping.  Persistence is supposed to be the key so I will endeavour to keep on going…

It is also soooo hot here in Belize!!

Gnome.Yet.AgainAnyway, today Gnome racked the Melomel because it had stopped bubbling (or talking) to us.  We had a quick taste…it was bright orange from the sapodilla and carrots…and it tasted rather orangey.  Let’s see how it will evolve.  He also put the last of the koji beans in jars in an attempt to make Chinese fermented black beans.  We can’t find a recipe anywhere for this so we have decided to add salt to it in a jar and let it keep on fermenting.  The fermentation area has been cleared up to make way for start of our soap marathon and so we shall be making a batch of chocolate soaps tomorrow.  Gnome also removed the last of the barbed wire fencing which had been originally constructed for the division of large animals on the farm.  We are not even going to pretend any-more…we are fine with small things like guinea pigs!

Munchkin.Upsidown.UpsetWell, I have developing more products for BotanicaBelize; this time it is Mens’ facial products.  It was so hot!!!  But, alas I did muster enough creativity, despite the heat, to make some nice products.

One day at a time…

Together.from.FrontI would like it to be fun all the time but sometimes the sweaty, horrible heat gets in the way!!

  1. We are reading, we are reading :)!! Does it show up in your stats if I read your blog post in my email? I often read it that way, so didn’t know– if many do that–whether it could skew your stats?

    Oppressive heat sure does make it hard to feel enthusiastic about anything. When working outside in 100+f, I would often soak my shirt in water and put it back on. Re-wet as necessary, lol. It helps a bit. Thank you for sharing your projects! It helps us feel not so far away :). Erin & Jim

    1. Thank-you!! We do appreciate your encouragement…it was a moment of weakness. As soon as I posted it up, there was a sudden flurry of visitors. That will teach me to complain!

  2. BotanicaBelize loves you always & appreciates ALL your creativity & all you endure to make our beautiful products! Be well. Be wild & Stay cool! xoxo
