The Goat Woman

This week has been a whirlwind of restocking and product testing. So far I’ve restocked on *Non-chemical baby wash*, Med-Dry Shampoo, Med-Oily Shampoo and Summer version Shower Gel. I just made a new exciting No SLS, SELS or anything but soap Bubbly Bubble Bath . . . Right now it only comes in  Cucumber Melon but if the testers (aka Guinea Pigs) love it – then I’ll be bottling it in those gorgeous green/black bottles with our goat milk lotion in the same scent as a set. With more scents to come.

I’m working on Baby Shampoo and will trying out my new Ph tester sets (I have 2 kinds now). I need to see how close it is to Ph of 7 (no stinging sensation) without adding those nasty chemicals. Personally, I’d rather just be careful not to get it in a young one’s eyes than put chemicals in it to make it Ph of 7.

I’m in the middle of making cloth diapers in several different styles for a sweet friend of mine – saving the landfill of 1800 disposables. I’m also working along these same lines to get the final products in the baby carriage basket and making possible non-scratch baby mittens and a snuggle blanket or swaddle sheet to line the basket with as an additional practical, fun gift for babies. After this little hurdle, it’s off to the local baby shops and either etsy or EBay. My dream is almost finalized – - my own natural, safe, non-chemical baby line that I can be proud of.

Still waiting to hear on the Artisan Center at Berea . . . but I will be patient – I have too many distractions to think about it much.

Goats due soon . . . I love watching babies being born and helping when I can. Next month it’s baby cow. Isn’t life great??

If it weren’t for the muddy, yucky mess outside and the half-done, barely started projects here and there, I’d tell you to come over for a nice chat and a cup of tea . . .
