 Hi nostr, i'm listening to a little bit of much needed rain falling outside.  Its been a good day, i got started on the turnover at the cabin after church, then just did some things around the house.  I went for a walk this evening, and this time i carried my walkie talkie with me, and told my husband to carry his.  I want to start doing this from now on, after my scary encounter with the those dogs. 

I hope i made enough of my homemade soap for the holiday season.  A lady at church wants to buy 15 bars that i'll be getting to her this week.  Anyway, yall have a good evening nostr friends.  Stay happy, healthy, and free.  #grownostr #homesteading #countrylife https://nostrcheck.me/media/8d9d2b77930ee54ec3e46faf774ddd041dbb4e4aa35ad47c025884a286dd65fa/92748b3dc0a2a377d355a9df0aabc157361510a5251172affec7e043220c23e7.webp 
 I need to start making soap!! Is there a recipe? 👀 I have a lot of tallow and essential oil  
 I do venison tallow soap. To burn off the tallow impurities I aim for more of a lye soap. So I go heavier on the lye. Makes a good lather. 0.5% superfat recipe 
 The radio is a good idea but how fast could your husband get there? I hope you at least have some pepper spray. I've run afoul of some ill-tempered canines before while out on a walkabout. I always have a knife on me and 9 out of 10 times now a handgun. Be safe.  
 I always have a handgun too.  I used it to scare off those dogs a couple days, read my post about it.  But afterward i tried calling my husband to come, in case the dogs followed me. 
 I did. Must've missed that part. And good. Stay safe.
