We have been busy making soap these days! I got some new essential oils to play with. I made a soap especially for outdoor activities, with insect repellent oils. This one is a goat's milk soap with cedar, rosemary and eucalyptus oils and some ground lavender as well. I think men would like this one! The goat's milk makes the soap very creamy. We also made a soothing chamomile soap with sweet orange oil and lime oil. Very nice citrus scent. I just made a calendula soap with ground oats and sweet orange oil. I grow the calendula in my herb garden. It is a beautiful flower with different shades of yellow, gold and orange blooms and is a great skin softener. Calendula is also good for blemishes. The orange soap reminds me of orange sherbet!
I have been thinking of getting some pygmy goats both for fun and for milk! If any one has had any experience with them, I would love to hear from you! I think Sophie and Susanna would enjoy them and the grandchildren would love them!! We would have lots of milk for our soap.
Have a great day and thanks for visiting with us!!
