Soap Magic

“Winter is on my head, but eternal Spring is in my heart.” – Victor Hugo

It really hasn’t felt much like winter here in northwest Montana so far, but still I know it’s far to early to be thinking about spring and gardening.  To avoid getting too excited about gardening, I’ve been trying to focus on some projects inside the house, like making laundry soap.

It doesn’t give me quite the satisfaction that digging in the dirt or harvesting a ripe tomato does, but it’s not too shabby either.  There’s something just so satisfying about getting my hands involved in a little manual labor even if it is just grating a bar of soap.  Something so very magical about doing it myself and knowing that I’m working on taking care of our home and our lives in my own unique way.  It might never make the pages of Vanity Fair but it will without doubt grace the pages of my journal, both public and private, and bless this wonderful home and life.  Ordinary magic perhaps but magic none-the-less.

What kind of magic are you creating at home these days?
