Natural Deodorant: Day 5

Notice there was no Day 4. 😉
48-hour test. Just on the edge of becoming monkey pits.

Natural Deodorant: Day 3

Day 3.
I went about 30 hours between showers and I am happy to report that this stuff rules.
There was a bit of a hint of me in there, but it was mostly myrrh and a bit of coconut oil.… Read the rest

Natural Deodorant: Day 2

After 24 hours, I was only just starting to detect some man-funk under my pits.

Pergola

So, our “backyard”, such as it is, is about as hot as the center of the Sun. I am pretty sure we have fusion taking place back there. We’ve looked at ways of gaining some shade, but due to the nature of our house (clad in asbestos shingles), an awning or the like is out of the question.… Read the rest
