Laundry Detergent

The recipe below is not mine, but is the same thing, same ingredients.  I had to order the washing soda online but I have been told that some supermarkets carry it.  It's not hard to do and it works great.  You may want to add some scented oil to it if you like a scent, else it just smells like soap..which is not bad.  I will still try to find my recipe....you can also do a search on the web and come up with many variations to this.  If you try it let me know what you think.

I have loved browsing everyone's blogs!  So much to learn!!  Not sure what I can share...I do homeschool 6 kids, just not in the country, yet.  We do plan on moving to the country.  I do want to plant a garden just not sure where to start!  I have made my own laundry detergent though....I am definately interested in that homemade toothpaste recipe I just read on someone's blog!  Gotta try that!

I would like to spruce up my blog page here, chage graphics and such.  Anyone here know how to do that??  I will keep trying.
