OK, I mentioned earlier today
that I needed one of these,
a 5 gallon bucket and lid. Holy Moly
why are they so expensive???
And the thing that really
chapped me was,
you have to
pay seperate for the LID.
For weeks now Nate has been
trying to find an empty one,
on one of the tracks he visits
everyday, none to be found. So
my cheap, frugal self had to go
buy one, tragic I know.
By the way, you can find them
at your local hardware store.
I didn't take a picture of mine,
no way I'm advertising the
grumpy 'ol people who couldn't
stop visiting to help me find the
stinkin' lids that were stored
in a different room than the buckets.
Yes, you need the lid, why you ask?
KIDS...drowning...cleaner...
not a good mix.
So now that I have the bucket,
I'll cook up this little project
tomorrow after I finish speaking
at a baptism,
until then...

I know this might be too late, but I get mine free from our bakery at the grocery store- Albertson's and Fred Meyer both will let you take them home if you ask. (I'm interested to see how your soap works out- I make powder soap (1 bar plain soap, 1 cup borax, 1 cup washing soda) and I've never tried making liquid!
