    Miriam met our vet tonight

    Well, I think the problem may have started when they switched over to those "meaty chunks" or whatever they're called. I did call Purina and report the diarrhea and ask if they'd had any other complaints, and they said no. :rolleyes: They did send me a coupon for a free bag up to $50. We...

    Soap Making 101

    Not sure about the candy oils, Emerald. Maybe try a small batch and see how it comes out? I had my first botched batch the other night. I had all of the oils mixed and ready to go and I measured out the lye and came up .35 oz short! :barnie So I went ahead and made it anyways. The soap...

    Miriam met our vet tonight

    Sorry to hear that. :( Our dogs used to get the same food, but I think they must have c hanged their recipe because Scooter will not even touch it now! It gave him really bad diarrhea. Right now he's on metronidazole also, and it has helped a lot. I'd look into Taste of the Wild, because...

    Converting L to oz (weight)

    Thanks Moolie. I don't have a problem measuring for the recipe, I'm just trying to figure out how much it costs to make each batch. I've got a "close enough" figure for now I think. :D

    Converting L to oz (weight)

    Ok, well Wiki said one gallon of olive oil weighs between 6.68 and 7.68 lbs. :/ I guess I'll just estimate!

    Converting L to oz (weight)

    Ok, I found that 1 L= 920 g=32.45 oz. I hope that's right. Now does anyone know how many lbs is in a gallon of palm oil? I'm guessing a little less than 8 lbs?

    Converting L to oz (weight)

    I'm trying to figure out how much it costs to make my soap, but I'm having a hard time figuring how to convert the 3 L bottle of olive oil to oz (weight, not volume). :barnie Can anyone help?

    Taste of the Wild food & Cats

    Yep, that's why I asked. I bet it has more to do w/ the declawing than anything. We adopted a declawed male cat who has litter box issues, and he now lives outside because of it. He is the best hunter!

    Lichen Planus

    My MIL came over this past weekend and oh my gosh, her poor hands. :hit They were awful. I gave her some plain goat milk soap to try, and some coconut oil to use as lotion, and then found a tube of lanolin and sent her home with those to try and see if they'd relieve any of the...

    Soap Making 101

    So last night I cut the coffee kitchen bars (made with coffee as the majority of the liquid, and 2 oz goat milk). I mixed in coffee grounds and then sprinkled grounds on top of the soap in the mold. I should have frozen the coffee like I usually freeze the GM, but I figured it wouldn't burn...

    Thanks! Yeah, when I uploaded the pictures then I wanted to kick myself because I realized I had been taking the end off. :lol: Next time I'll definitely leave the end on.
