Yesterday I showed off the new goat's milk bar in Yesterday I showed off the new goat's milk bar in relation to the old one, today, I'm showing off the new oatmeal bar in relation to the old one. Yes, same mold for both oatmeal and goat's milk this time around (don't even get me started on my search for new molds that are both interesting and gender-neutral and larger than guest-size that come with more than one cavity in the mold... you'd think I was trying to find hen's teeth.)

Not quite a shadow, not quite a raincloud, not quite the color of smoke from a campfire... and yet somehow this is all of those things together.

Did I mention sparkly? This photo doesn't do her justice!

It's a little smaller around on all sides but still close to the same thickness. In total, it's about two ounces less - we'll be going down from between 5 to 5.5 ounces to 3.5 ounces (there will be a price reduction as the new bars filter in). Check out that wavy texture, tho!
