Been meaning to give an update on the bacon soap situation -- things are looking up! What first seemed like just a dish of greasy goo has now solidified into something that looks and feels a lot like an honest-to-goodness bar of soap.




Stinks pretty bad. Leaves an yecho film on your skin after wetting it. And has red dye in it, so washing is not exactly what you'd be doing anyway...

But technically, I do think we created some soap here.

Still need to edit down the video for Youtube posting -- not that it's very interesting... Just me standing in my garage mixing caustic chemicals while being mocked by by wife and friends and abandoned by my children.

I got ideas, though. Bacon soap sounds like an excellent Fathers Day gift. Watch your mailbox, Don Vito. The neighborhood dogs are definitely going to chase the local letter carrier.
