YouTube

After owning a YouTube channel since 2008, I decided to populate it with soap and travel videos along with a few from the home front. Robin has his own video channel.

You can catch the videos on:

Robin has had a YouTube channel since 2008 also.  He has some very interesting videos also:

We tried to keep them short, although there are a few longer than five minutes.

Take care,

April

April's TV Debut on Fairchild TV on D.I.Y. Projects

Hello Dear Family and Friends:

Here is my TV debut on Fairchild TV. It is Cantonese. See translation below.


Translation:

- most people buy soap from a store but making it can be very fulfilling
- homemade soap makes a very excellent and personal gift
- (pictures of soap) looking at this table, there are a lot of cakes. Howe
ver, those are not cakes but rather homemade soap
- when something is given as a gift, people need to find places to store them. However with soap, it can be used immediately
- However April's soaps look so beautiful that most people don't want to use it so that it doesn't get ruined

- (general instructions on soap making in Cantonese)

- question from the reporter - does putting too much extras in soap (such as chocolate) make you hand darker when using the soap?
- if homemade soap is to be sold in retail, it needs to be approved by Health Canada - but if given out as a gift, no approval is needed
