The problem with homemade soap like he was talking about is if it has too much potash left. Then it turns you into soap. Since you never know how much potassium carbonate any given plants will produce it’s hit or miss.

I’m surprised there weren’t any news stories this year of “mysterious burns on forehead” from ash Wednesday.

There is a local woman that makes and sells some home-made goat milk bar soap. She has a small herd of milking goats. It’s quite nice and I buy a few bars from her during the county fair every year.
