Juiceland’s Eastside Flea 4 All

April 15, 2015 by interactiveleaf

Second Wednesday of every month
5:30PM-8:30PM
Kenny Dorham’s Backyard
1106 East 11th St

This is a fairly new regular show that’s rapidly becoming one of my favorites. It fills a great mid-week gap for me. There’s music (live and recorded), good food (I love me some Jamaican jerk chicken. And did you know that Colombian empanadas are fried, not baked?) and the quality of the artwork on display is spectacular.

I rarely display the soaps there, just the incense and occasionally some jewelry and prints, so if you’re looking for something specific, contact me in advance and let me know so I’ll be sure to have it available.

All soaps are glycerin soaps! Glycerin is a natural byproduct of the saponification process, and is naturally contained in the oils and fats used to make soap. However, large soap manufacturers extract the glycerin from soaps and use it for the more profitable enterprise of making nitroglycerin and other products.

True transparent bars (clear glycerin soaps) have their glycerin content raised by boiling the soap base in alcohols and sugars before curing. This makes an extraordinarily low Ph and mild soap that is good for the skin, but it also dissolves easily–don’t leave these in a pool of water!
