When I do give in & shorten a pair, I leave enough fabric to turn under twice. At the seams, I trim out the seam allowance where it will be turned under on the first turn. I treat the cut edge that will be at the top edge of the hem with a good soaking of FrayChek. I use thread for jeans & hem from the outside.
Goat's milk does contain lactose and it has almost as much as cow's milk. Cheeses made from both cow's milk and goat's milk will have a reduction in the amount of lactose due to the fermentation process. For this reason many people who are lactose intolerant are able to eat cheeses.
Fresh cheeses have a moderate lactose content. Avoid ricotta cheese, cottage cheese and feta cheese and foods prepared with these ingredients to prevent embarrassing digestive problems. Even if you are lactose intolerant, you can still enjoy aged cheese, such as Brie cheese, cheddar cheese and Swiss cheese.
