- The fridge is full of vegetable oils to be used for soapmaking.
- You use the stockpot to make soap.
- You have more "soap" utensils than you do "cooking" ones!

- You give your local UPS and USPS delivery people hernias from delivery vats and vats of M&P base.
- You know the names of the Customer Service reps at those companies and they know you.

- You try writing off your "work cupboard" as a home business tax expense.

- The UPS guy rolls his eyes every time he lugs a box to your house.
