I will always mention during this holiday. Be mindful of everyone with regards to fireworks. It can trigger ptsd in veterans especially combat vets. It triggered one such event with my late brother in law, which caused him to accidentally set their place on fire. Note that wasn't how he passed.
Agreed! We don't typically buy more than sparklers ourselves, especially with how California is a tinder box during the summer. My youngest is on the spectrum and isn't fond of the noise either, so it's usually better for us to watch from a distance! ~Raven
As one who is consistently upset because i don’t get hangovers, but if I miss out on drinking enough water by even 8oz. I get the freaking dehydration headache of Hades…yes. Stay hydrated or you will die (or wish for something anyway)
That is one beautiful soap! I've never watched Bridgerton but I do have a soft spot for the original Bridgerton soap. When my son was 3 days old I had to have corrective surgery after the stitches from my c-section burst and some internals had to be stitched back inside. As I was in my recovery room waiting for my husband and son to arrive, using the WiFi signal I had I saw that you had just uploaded a new video, the Bridgerton soap. I watched it and it helped the chaos of the last few days go away for a short period and I had some peace to myself which I desperately needed. So yes the design itself needed a second chance but I still love that original video for that moment of normal and fun I needed
Oh, Raven definitely pulled it off! Those swirls turned out so delicate and beautiful! And I love how you did the top frills for the curtains. Sorry that you guys are dealing with so much heat. Don't hate me but Colorado has been fairly nice weatherwise. We've had hot days (not as hot as you guys, YET) but the hot days have been accompanied by rainy afternoons, so those temps have cooled off a lot by the time the sun goes down. I would say happy 4th but, as I'm sure you know, with the recent SCOTUS decisions it's a little hard to celebrate so our house will be passing over the holiday. Let's hope our democracy survives this year. Love and Hugs from Colorado!
Time to start packing ice in the car, Raven! Just a little by the fan so you can have the air blow over it. We're only expected to hit high 80s here, but I live by Seattle. It's humid AF here and that makes the heat Worse. I'm expecting to be content if a bit warm while everyone around me melts into a puddle.
Very pretty. I love the color and the swirl. That is way too hot. Stay cool if you can. I always felt like August in California got significantly hotter but we were closer to the coast. I hope the temperatures go down soon.
This soap turned out sooo pretty! Also, but on the heavier side, but I’ve been struggling with my mental health for years. You guys are one of two creators I watch on a bad day and it distracts me. I cannot thank you guys enough for that. (Ps I’m a cali girl too and I hate the heat so much)
I literally gasped a little when you opened those first two bars. I totally wasn't expecting that. This might be your prettiest soap ever. Now go drink some Pedialyte.
This might be too personal, but as another they/them parent, do Cat’s kids understand their pronouns yet? Or would they be comfortable sharing how that transition as a parent went? My kiddo is only five, so they don’t quite get it yet, but their Dad is great about trying to inform them with me.
My kid seems to be doing fine with it, though he had some struggles getting used to it when I first started using they/them. My kiddo also does still call me "mom" which I've told him I'm fine with so he mostly defaults to using "mom" instead of pronouns. ~Cat

Awww! I'm so glad you're okay and that we were able to help you center in that moment! 🫂
@CatandRaven thank you both for making such fun and hilarious videos 😁
I just watched allllllll of Bridgerton over the past few weeks... and several of the books. Love the soap!
Oooh Cat has been reading the books!
I just started Hyacinth's story. So far it's looking like it'll be a really steamy one.

Hope the weather stays good in Colorado! And yeah, a lot of reasons to feel a little lackluster today for sure. :/
Hang in there! 💕

I actually oohed and awwed with you when you guys cut the soap for the first time. It got redeemed for sure! Lol. Please stay safe out there.
Very pretty. I love the color and the swirl.

We're enjoying a nice comfortable week of temps under 100 right now! Phew!

🫂 🫂 So glad we can help bring a bit of peace with our chaos!
Absolutely beautiful. Glad you shared
Hahahah omg!!!! Best at the end!!! If u dont hydrate u are gonna DIE!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 loved it!!
Oh yes that sucks.I've been stuck in road work at 100 degrees with no A/C I feel your pain
This soap is gorgeous!!! And I love it even more just because my youngest's name is Penelope 🥰
Awww! 💕
I mean, I don’t envy you the _super_ hot temps, but it’s only about 14c (58f) here in north east England, and I wouldn’t mind it being a bit warmer!
Ahhhh, I bet that's nice! You're more than welcome to borrow a bit of our temperature to even things out 😂
In also curious if cat is going to attempt a reduction of RIP . AkA the Oregon Trail design. Or maybe they're too traumatized by the ig dail.
I haven't watched in a hot minute; last I knew nature's garden was a nope. Did something change?
Yes, big change! They're under new ownership!
@@CatandRaven Oh good!
112 over today and 113 for tomorrow. Your soap is so pretty
very pretty. I love it. Success!
Heck yes!
❤
what does kaolin clay do?
It helps make the lather really smooth and silky!

@@CatandRaven thanks! That’s pretty much what’s up with my five year old also.
