  • For Brosia

    I know this is not exactly "food" but can you do a photo essay on making homemade soap? I have a degree in European history, and I know what the Romans and Greeks used, and you do not want to know what it was. I for one would not use their method for washing cloths.

    What Rusty said :)

    I am blessed with extra bee's wax from my hives after I get honey. Been saving it up for awhile. Can either make soap or candles out of it... I don't like smelly people :o

    Someday someone may kill you with your own gun, but they should have to
    beat you to death with it because it is empty.

    The faster you finish the fight, the less shot you will get.

          ah, ha. so just 'cause I'm a girl, you think I can make homemade soap? :p

          I haven't the foggiest.


          Sounds like a cool project though, I'll add it to my list of things to do, and if I ever get around to it, I'll post pictures!!
          There are, of course, a million and one websites that teach you how, I'm sure some of them must have pictures.

            No No No. I did not mean that. It is just that the women folk tend to know more about such things.

              here's a website with directions and a video, don't know how good the video is, as this computer doesn't want to play it.

              http://www.wikihow.com/Make-Your-Own-Soap

              But I'm sure there's a ton on YouTube.


              Personally, I went to the dollar store and bought a bunch of soaps to keep with my long-term supplies.

                In post #7 the .com on soap making still works. Interesting and seems like easy instructions.
