Dear Sylv,

So you are using as if it were soap. Oddly enough, my Grandmother used to

make soap out of oatmeal. Maybe I should have paid more attention to that

recipe. I remember that there was lard in it, which would help my dry skin,

but that really does NOT smell great.......well I could put myself in the

oven to dry off and go around smelling like a very large oatmeal biscuit. We

have to keep our sense of humor here. At any rate, I'll give it a try and

let you know. I'll try anything once, even Combo.

LOL,

Anne
