Soap 2.0

So... soap-making. You may have heard me talking about this idea of mine. Here is how it has gone so far.



In this pic you see above is soap 1.0 You may notice that i look, grumpy. That is because in-fact i was grumpy. I was grumpy because i was cleaning up after successfully NOT making soap. Weee... fun...


Now here is soap 2.0:

Mixing the lye water into the oil.

Pouring the soap mix into the mould.

Ready to cure, a little cinnamon flavored soap on one side and some coconut on the other.

Did i even mention why i am making soap. No, i am not trying to be "The Donald" and start and empire. I am going to try to teach a man to fish. Actually, i am going to try and teach some women how to make soap. However, this soap business is turning out to be harder than fishing. I think the last time i went fishing was 2 decades ago. We were trawling, and i forgot to wind up the reel when we went to the next spot. When we stopped after 20 minutes of going at 40 naughts i reeled the line in and found that i had caught a fish, 20 minutes ago. Lets just say i didnt have to use the fish bonker.

Back to soap. It's not that easy! Not at all. But, at least it will give a few Ugandan women something to laugh about. I may earn the title mzungu. I will let you know how much money i make from selling it at the fundraiser. Hmm maybe i do want to be "the Donald" at least in the soap world.
