Bubbles

2 pints of water
3 T. dawn professional detergent
1/2 heaping tsp guar powder
3 T. rubbing alcohol
1/2 teaspoon baking powder 

Directions

Mix the guar powder with the alcohol and stir until there are no clumps

Combine the alcohol/guar slurry with the water and mix gently for 10 minutes.  Let it sit for a bit so the guar hydrates.  Then mix again.  The water should thicken slightly, like soup or unset gelatin.  Add the baking powder and stir.  Add the Dawn Professional Detergent and stir gently, to avoid causing the mixture to foam  Dip a giant bubble wand with a fibrous string into the mixture until it is fully immersed and slowly pull the string out.  Wave the wand slowly or blow on it to create giant soap bubbles.
