Hey John, by teaching Kenyons to make soap, won't they end up with waste that is both toxic and highly explosive? How do they dispose of that? Hopefully not on neighboring tribes ...

I'm assuming Matt's comment was tongue-in-cheek. Combining lye and fat to make soap does not, as far as I know, produce any byproducts other than the soap itself. When you wash out your utensils and containers, the wash water is somewhat alkaline, and must be treated carefully, but it can be poured down the outhouse with no ill effect. (Lye is, after all, sold as a drain cleaner!)

I got a mortar and pestle from one of those high-end yuppie kitchen shops, the kind that sell pasta makers and coffee grinders. I looked around Atlanta for quite a while before I could find a store that sells them.

I have a mortar and pestle. I've worked with lavender most of my life. Use lavender oil. Or a hammer and a rock. Or two rocks. I'd think that grinding lavener would waste most of the fragrance, smearing it on the instrument and container. Perhaps a lesson in distilling would be more useful, if they have access to the herb. Good luck! Stay safe. Blessed be.

If you have a Bed, Bath Beyond, they should carry them, or any gourmet kitchen store. I think World Market also has some.
Good luck on your trip and have a safe, blessed time!
