    Lol....I make skin care products out of goat milk...I invented a "Go-Jo" type hand cleaner ...»
    with all natural ingredients, including a little powdery pumice and it works like a charm for cleaning not only greasy, grimy hands, it also works on appliances, counter tops, and nooks and crannies where filth collects that a broom and mop can't reach. Sure beats using a tooth brush to scrub with! Lol! I call it "Goat Jo." Would be happy to send samples for anyone who would like to try it for free. Just send me your e-mail info at SarahGoatMom@GMail.Com :)
