Laundry update

Some of you have asked how I like the homemade laundry detergent. Well, I like it just fine! My clothes are clean and fresh. The next batch I make I will try some essential oil scents just for fun, but for the first try, I think it was a complete success!

One note: After scooping out some of the detergent to use, I noticed that the holes that were left filled with water. I just used my scoop and kind of mixed up the detergent again and it seems to work just fine. I think I'm using a little more than 1/2 cup per load. It's probably closer to 3/4 of a cup. Also, this is a suds free detergent, which was odd for me at first. I'm so used to seeing bubbles!

Next up: Dishwashing detergent!
