    Adding things

    I can't answer about the Aloe because I have yet to try it....but with Oatmeal it depends on how much soap you are making....but also some people like more scrubbiness than others...so you would have to take that in to consideration.

    Vegetable shortening - Soybean oil

    I have used soybean oil a couple of different times...mostly when I have the itch to try something and may not have all of my regular oils on hand...I have never had a problem with it...the few times I have used it it has been fine and the soap turned out great.

    What is with the drama????

    I wasn't intending on dragging the drama over here which is why I attempted to use emoticons to insert some levity on the subject. And my attempts at asking for advice or info on a particular thing was to an individual not to the entire group...so I would think (I might be wrong) that an...

    What is with the drama????

    I just need to vent!! (probably contributing to the drama :oops: ) I belong to various soapmaking groups online because I just love to read and learn about soapmaking and there is one in particular that is always full of drama!! You would think that we were trading in gold bullion instead...
