This is way off topic, but may be of interest to some. We have a very smal=
l pond that we sometimes use to cool off on a hot day. One year we made a =
large batch of kombucha and added it to the pond. We would soak in it and =
it seems to be quite good for skin and hair (restores acid mantle). As an =
added bonus the mosquitoes and other critters avoided it. From time to tim=
e we skimmed off the growing "mother culture" and threw it to the nearby ba=
mboo for their benefit and we also occasionally made a very strong large po=
t of tea and added it with some sugar. It kept well all summer.
