Lisa Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 I need to get some of their soaps! Looks like it's a whole-community project during the Christmas season! How exciting though, that one of the novices is preparing for first vows! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luigi Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 I used to make soap for a living - not bars, liquid gallons and stuff - it was truly, utterly, unspeakably horrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheresaThoma Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 I have looked at their soaps and such before. If I have some money after tuition I might just have to buy some! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luigi Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 I gave some of their soap to my aunts - themselves Dominicans - a couple of years ago. They didn't break out in hives, and they said they liked it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesus_lol Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 I saw the thread title and thought of Fight Club. i was momentarily terrified of dominicans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feankie Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 I buy a lot of "stuff" from monasteries. Fruit cakes (okay, don't gag here, but they are really good and we love them!), cheeses, etc. The products are yummy and I know the money is going to a good cause. And I always send a little extra on top of the price to help out, even if in a little way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
