Burrell, the detergent is:
1 c Borax
1 c Arm & Hammer washing soda
1 c liquid soap (I use Ivory)
2 c water
You have to mix it really well to get all incorporated and warm to hot water is better. It tends to separate and need mixing before each use. I have heard, but have not tested, that mixing over low heat helps dissolve everything better.
I use about a 1/4 c for a wash.
Timelies y'all.
CJ and I are up, dressed in our karate gear and are heading out for the parade. Hoping we have a big group from the dojo. Then I'm planning a NAP before we go out tonight. Slept like heck last night.
did all the stuff planned this morning. yay. also made coffee so I'll have iced coffee at home for the next few days.
it is hot outside. I am taking my parasol today.
Timelies all!
We're planning to go down to the Folklife Festival, and then to the Capitol for fireworks. Being lazy at the moment.
Reading the plans for the 4th amuse me, because in Utah, the celebrations are essentially over, since today's a Sunday. Kind of sad, but if it means the rest of the country is doing other things other than needing tech support, all to the good.
Ooh, thanks for reminding me to make extra coffee for iced, msbelle!
Kaylee is so calm around the kitties!
We're at church in an overflow room and the video is a few minutes delayed from the audio. Confusing.
We saw some clothes for mac on super sale at jcpenney on the way here so he now has new swim trunks, swim shirt, and awesome dragon t-shirt. Total $20.
I encourage everyone to sing a loud and joyous This Land is Your Land today. My whole being is refreshed and smiling now.
I did nothing for Megan but empathize--I have been felled many a time by nausea with my migrianes, including one 4th of July weekend (I think?) when Smonster and Amyth were visiting.
Yep. We felt so bad.
As someone of my acquaintance noted, at least the panties were bulldog red.
Ha! Can you imagine the scandal if they'd been yellow and black striped?
