Surviving Minnesota!

Like those mechanic orange cleaners. Go-jo? I have that here at the house.

I’ve made homemade soap with birch bark chopped into pumice, activated charcoal, orange oil and tea tees for a garage soap. It was a special order. But I should make more. Good stuff.

Yep like Go-jo but some cheaper knock off I get at Menards or Harbor freight.

If I ever get around to making homemade soap those are great ideas.

Ralphie we have critters up here that will help put a dent in your deer population. Help you in your orchard! My friend Troy has a 3 and 6 year old that play just through those trees just ahead. You can see the house. Eek.

He found this freshy yesterday morning in the back swamp. He’s rethinking the kids backyard play area.

TFred Dad used lava on the farm. Remember the pumice too. Was it volcanic rock do you think?

I’ve seen they’ve made pumice plastic beads illegal and trying to do the same for plastic clothes (micro fleece) getting in to our water supply.

That's how it was marketed anyway. I think it was.

This is an unfair time of year too for deer. They still poke through the snow crust. The wolves run lightly on top with those padded feet. This is the same area and probably same pack I posted about earlier this winter. They are sighted often and alot of homes there along the snowmobile trails and such.

I think we need a soap making class.....this sounds like it smells really good. And right now I know of a man and a young man who could use a strong hand cleaner..... @camboy77 .

BC we’ve never made soap with those ingredients before... Sounds interesting... We usually do 2-3 batches of soap a year... Use all of it lol... We also do a lot of the soap making for WMSTR... We are usually sick of soap by the end of that week LOL.

What is WMSTER? Sounds like my kind of week! LOL.

I need to get on to doing more soap truly. People have been asking. We're completely out at home. Using 'bought' soap. My skin looks like a snake after Texas as it is.
It's just dragging out all the stuff. Set up and Clean up.

Knitting on the couch has been my go-to.

Crocheting in a dental waiting room makes people nervous.. these town people are odd. I'm also getting anxious for egg drop off at my church meeting this afternoon. What's every one else up to
