I really want to do this and I really want it to work. <br /><br />My house will be a good test - I've got the boy who has grass stains on the knees of their jeans and a husband who works in a nursery and comes home filthy just about every day. Their clothes will certainly put this recipe to the test. Sigh....if I can ever make it!!!<br /><br />Thanks for sharing publically, though! And I'm glad it's working for you!<br /><br />Oh - and I'm slowly catching up on my blog reading, as you can tell.Tiffanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04588415376499672820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8354906665232407091.post-40382494347546170812009-07-20T07:11:40.548-05:002009-07-20T07:11:40.548-05:00I've seen these recipes out there and have bee...I've seen these recipes out there and have been tempted.

I should have known better! You were trying to make us save money! hee hee hee! :)<br /><br />I remember my best friend back in Florida came over to have a sleepover at my house, and she looked for arm & hammer baking soda to brush her teeth with! hee hee hee!<br /><br />I don't have a washing machine. :) We have 2 maids, and they do the washing with their hands. That's how everything is done over here regarding the washing of clothing. :) I mean, there ARE washing machined for sale, but handwashing is better on the clothes, we think. :)C.
