Laundry Detergent

It's not cooking, but it is helpful. Matthew is out of town this week, so I am not cooking much. We would prefer to have him at home, but we have to deal with this occasionally. It's life! We will have cereal tonight for supper!

I made a batch of laundry detergent today, so I thought I would share that with you.

Take two cups washing soda, two grated bars of soap and two cups of Borax. Mix it together, and you have about 60 loads ready to go. I usually use one bar of Ivory soap and one bar of Dr. Bronner's Lavender Castile soap to give it a nice scent. I use between one and two tablespoons depending on the load. I use a cheese grater for my bars of soap. Happy Grating!!
