Recipe Swap - Homemade Laundry Soup "Revised"

Good Day to YOU!  

Thanks for stopping by!  

My weekly "Recipe Swaps" have been slacking and I apologize!  

But, I have one for you this week - it's the Homemade Laundry Soap that I shared with you HERE at this post but I've got a suggestion for ya - so it's a REVISED recipe!

     On my 2nd batch of homemade Laundry Soup (makes 3 gallons = approx. 3 months worth) - I added a 1/3 cup of "Downy Unstopable" pellets - it's a laundry fragrance booster!  This product is a little pricey - but divided out to what you are saving on laundry soap and the nice smell you achieve - it's worth it!
"Revised" Homemade Laundry Soap

1 bar "Fel Naptha Soap"; grated

1 cup Washing Soda (Arm & Hammer)

1 cup Borax (20 Mule Team)

1/3 cup "Downy Unstopable" pellets

Water

3 - 1 gallon "recycled" plastic containers

Here's a link with more instructions and pictures of "step-by-step" instructions.  I really like this homemade product - and my clothes smell and feel very CLEAN!

Just a note that we are DONE with our annual Texas 4-H Record Book submission - 2 of them; Aric - "Recreation" - intermediate level  and  Alex - "Citizenship/Civic Education" senior level.  

WHEW!  

Texas has changed their format - including a choice of 3 different formats:  online, pdf or MSWord type of form.  This did make it easier - but this task is the MOST GRUELING part of 4-H - but it's also one of the most important part of the program!  BOTH record books are completed and turned in - with the help of "The Ging" - she's my proofreader and nerve-soother! THANK YOU! And I want to point out - that I didn't have any "melt downs" or break downs this year - LOL!  

Now - it's on to a great summer break- Hurray!  Summer cleaning and reading!  On my KINDLE are these books for June: 

 After talking with your friends and family - I must confess that I'm a "social reader"!

I like to read what everyone else is and discuss it - but this book (by E.L. James) maybe the "breaker" - BEWARE!  This book is for mature audiences ONLY!  OMG...  you've been warned! Everyone is reading this series of 3 books, but...  GEESH - I don't think they can make these into a movie w/o being rated XXX. This is my opinion and I've only read 1/2 of the first book - but I may not be able to finish this series...  way too graphic!

Thanks for stopping by - I've got June Card Swaps on the agenda and a Pool Party to share!  Have a great week!  Remember to hug the ones you love the most, until next time...
