Great Dish Soap

I have used many dish soaps but finally found my favorite......

Seventh Generation Natural Dish Liquid, Free and Clear

          
    Plant-derived dish soap effectively cuts grease

Non-toxic natural dish liquid soap

Dishwashing soap that is free of dyes and synthetic fragrances

Biodegradable liquid dish soap formula

I really try to be environmentally conscious about what cleaning products I use.  The first bottle I purchased of Seventh Generation Dish Liquid lasted a long time.  It cleans our dishes, pots and pans really efficiently.  

I love using it, especially along with my newly crocheted dish cloths! (See Delightful New Dishcloths post)

Household Hint

I think this is my first post regarding a household hint.  It is really a simple idea I had some time ago.  I use Oxi Clean Versatile Stain Remover for soaking clothes with stains, and also add it to loads of clothes in the washer.  I did not like having to find the spoon that is included in the plastic container.  So, one day I decided to simply tear back a small portion of the paper top and started just sprinkling it into the washer.  I found that such an easier way to use this great cleaner.

I know this is crazy simple idea, but I did feel creative when thinking of it!

After I use the amount I need, I just fold the torn edge back over the container and put the lid back on.
