I’m sharing my soap blog address in case anyone wants to follow along with my successes and setbacks: http://naturalbornsoap.blogspot.com I will keep this blog free of soapy stuff unless it is gardening related, like the new gardener bar I made and love, or herbs I’m growing and using, that kind of thing.
Oh my gosh readers. It’s been far too long since I posted about anything. Before I go any further with that, I do update the Garden of Eatin’ facebook page a bit more often, so if you are worried I’ve fallen off the face of the planet, head over there and see what I’m up to, or not up to …
