4 great window washing recipes! Yea, don’t we love window washing? Actually, I don’t really mind it. I just hate when I think I’ve done a marvelous job and then when the sun shines on them it looks like my kids were licking them or something. Part of this has to do with what liquid […]
This Castile soap recipe was the first kind of soap that I ever made. Castile Soap is wonderfully gentle. For many many years people have used it on their baby’s skin, as well as any sensitive skin or skin with acne. My mother-in-law was having a problem with her skin. Other soaps had started really […]
Yes, Peppermint Patty SOAP, not the yummy goodies you can eat. But these smell just like them. When I got done, my son came in and said, “Yea!” I told him it was soap and he looked so disappointed. I guess I’ll have to make him some peppermint patties. I have a great recipe for […]

I […]

Here are some of my recipes to try: Store-bought tortillas are loaded with extra ingredients and preservatives. We have a […]
One thing I look forward to in the Summer and Fall is a bountiful harvest of tomatoes. I plant a variety of tomatoes each year. I always plant in a new location from the previous year, even if it’s on the right side of the bed instead of the left side. If I can fend […]
There are lots of great reasons why I like the idea of making my own homemade deodorant. It’s easy, frugal, and as a big bonus, I know I can smell however I like. This uses only natural and healthy ingredients and creates a scent with essential oils instead of questionable fragrance oils. Be careful though, it doesn’t really […]
