My first post!

     This is both nerve wracking, and exciting!  My very first blog post......ever.  I really don't know where this will go, but that's half the fun isn't it!

     What will you find here?  A little of this......a little of that.  I'm a diy and craftaholic.  A homeschooling mom of 4.  So I'll have plenty to share.

     My number 1 craft is soap.  Soap, soap, soap, soapy, mcsoap soap.  I could probably talk about soap ALL day.  I never would have thought that's the craft I would have fallen into just a few years ago, but here I am.  A contributing member to soapaholics anonymous.  There's a story behind how it all came to be, but that's for another time, soon.


     I've recently opened a little shop on etsy.  Hence the name of the blog.  Antique Apothecary.  I find my inspiration in a time gone by, when things were simpler, more pure and natural, hence the antique part.  Apothecary......because I plan on offering products that are health and healing inspired.  I plan on sharing shop news and sales, maybe a tutorial or 2.  And you' ll get the inside scoop on what's up and coming.

Check my shop out here.

I'm so excited about this journey, and look forward to learning and growing with anyone who might follow along.

Corn Free Baking Powder Recipe

     Whether you're allergic to corn, or just trying to avoid the stuff, it's a real challenge.  I frequently say I would gladly keep my dairy and gluten allergies, if only I could tolerate corn.  It's EVERYWHERE!  Even on many brands of toilet paper.  Seriously folks, cornstarch on your toilet paper to prevent the rolls from sticking together.    Another place many people don't think of finding corn is in their baking powder.  It is typically made up of baking soda, cream of tartar, and cornstarch.  The baking soda is the leavening agent.  Cream of tartar is the acid that induces the reaction to set of the leavener.  And the starch is a drying agent.
