I just told a kid our soaps were made with puppy fat.

What's wrong with me? :(

Silly, everyone knows the best soap comes from the rendered fat of young boys. Also flying potions, according to the Julian Sands film, Warlock.

I probably would have said that if the context was different. As it was, this precocious little brat was in the store with his jellybean of a dog, scurrying around after it and asking too many questions.

I was watching Dirty Jobs last night and it was about small-scale soap manufacture. I am now really curious to see your lab one day.

It's not that impressive. We have two double boilers acting as sentries to the thousands of dollars of oils, herbs, and containers lining our shelves. It's messy, but no more miraculous than a stuffy restaurant kitchen.

Cold process soap manufacture with animal fat I can imagine is a bit 'dirty' as jobs go, but that's not what we do despite my pernicious lies to the kid.

Whoa. Was the kid freaked out or was he sort of... puppy fat. Hmm, what's that? Hmm, I don't know. Hmmm. Oh well.

I guess that's one way of dissuading people from asking questions.

Then again, maybe he'll decide he has to keep an eye on you from now on for the good of puppies everywhere or something bold like that.

Hmmm.

Thanks.

Thanks so much for causing me what will henceforth be many moons of sleepless nights. There's nothing creepier than being clandestinely surveyed from the shadows by a determined little kid.

Hm. And here I was trying to make you feel better.

Damn, I suck.. Gah.
