Merry Monday

Today was productive! I decided to make my own laundry detergent. It costs less than regular detergent, it's better for your skin, and it's better for the environment.

Here is the recipe:

1 cup Borax
1 cup Washing Soda
1 bar Ivory soap

Finely grate soap and mix all ingredients. Add 1 tbs to small & medium loads and 2 tbs to large loads. Add 1/4 cup vinegar to softener dispenser. Add essential oils for scent as desired. Here is what it ended up looking like:


This was only about half the borax and washing soda - can you image how many loads I will get out of this? Also, the ingredients are really cheap!

We went for a walk today on a trail above our housing tract:

We do have some nice views! Um, I mean see below.......



It was hot, but really good exercise!

Hope everyone had a wonderful day!

Much Love,
