Thursday, December 31, 2009. 2 cups Hair Conditioner (Suave has a lot of fun scents and is pretty cheap). I have been putting them in empty hair shampoo / conditioner, creamer, mouthwash and ketchup containers. More so so I can give away as gifts with the recipe on the outside of the container. I have also seen some really great ideas for conserving fabric softener:. Throw in an aluminium foil ball for static. (have not tried, but sounds like an interesting idea). Tuesday, December 1, 2009.

Thursday, January 5, 2012. HE Laundry Detergent Powder Method. Here is a post that I just read for HE machines. Personally the other one that is posted doesn't suds and could also be used, but this is one from someone that uses in hers and it works great. 8226; 3 bars of soap. (I used to use Ivory) 5 oz. (guessing Fels Napa just the same). 8226; 3 cups Borax. 8226; 3 cups Arm and Hammer washing soda ($5 for 55 oz). You will only need about 1/4 cup for a full load. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Saturday, April 3, 2010. My favorite is using green food coloring and coconut around the entire cake for green grass and then sprinkling jelly beans on top of it. However, I try and keep the whole center of the cake coconut free since there are coconut haters out there. For this cake I just sprinkled a bag of jelly beans and some milk chocolate eggs around the entire cake. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Awesome Inc. template. Powered by Blogger.

Random Thoughts: Quinoa-Sweet Potato Casserole
http://lippy2589.blogspot.com/2014/03/quinoa-sweet-potato-casserole.html
Sunday, March 2, 2014. 1 cup cooked quinoa. 3 cups cooked black beans (or two 15 oz cans, drained and rinsed). 2 large sweet potatoes, shredded. 1 cup shredded Daiya non-dairy cheddar cheese (I left this out, but would be good added). 1 tbsp ground cumin. Liberal pinches salt and pepper. 1/2 cup nutritional yeast. 2 tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped, for garnish. I cooked up a batch of dried beans that I seasoned with onions, garlic, chiles and spices. If you use canned beans, you might need more spices.

Friday, January 8, 2010. I found in an article during green week last year, got me started on all the homemade cleaners).

Saturday, March 28, 2015. Kitchen cleaner - grease, scum. This will clean off buildup on your stove, gunk on your fridge and even make your sink shine. Mix baking soda with hydrogen peroxide until it makes a paste. Then take a sponge and with the scrubby side scrub the surface until gone. You will need to wash off with water, it will look dull because of the baking soda mix. I used a mix of water and vinegar I usually use for cleaning. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
