Old Fashioned Ways in a Modern World

Hi Friends!

A promise to YOU to not use AI (artificial intelligence, not the animal breeding thing) in my articles and images. 99% of my images are actually my own (there's one about weed tea that used a bucket that is not my bucket) You'll also know that it's really me because well, I have typos usually, talk backwards, and get side tracked easily and say UM a lot in my videos. But hey it's me, I'm real. Are you? It's part of my Redefining Perfect where you can take your perfect loaf and shove it. And in this case, you can take your manufactured fake recipe, images, and content and shove it.
Your Welcome

Piggy Soap

Get ready to enjoy a rich lather soap made with 100% all natural ingredients

Each bar is carefully crafted using lard (no you won't smell like a pig) that I've rendered here on the homestead from our amazing Pigs that we raised on OUR land where we use organic practices, feed them certified organic feed from a local farm, on pasture. I use organic essential oils to create a light fragrance and whip it all up into a rich lather soap. It's amazing and great for sensitive skin. See the fav reviews below!

Happy Animals = Happy Meat = Happy Lard = Piggy Soap

Your Food Loving Friend,
