It seems like there was a generation that just doesn't get it - kind of reminds me of my mom's generation - the baby formula generation - she just didn't understand why I would want to nurse my kids.Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04232693432045335251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29617239.post-28681737738204983452012-01-19T17:02:05.481-07:002012-01-19T17:02:05.481-07:00I've just stumbled across your blog & not ...I've just stumbled across your blog & not only do we have similar blog names but v similar outlooks too!

I think your laundry ethics are great and I'm very proud of you for coming up with that idea. I guess I'm just a little "too long in the tooth" or of another generation to change now, but I do applaud your resourcefulness, plus you know what a nut I am regarding things and their aromas. Guess I got that from my mom and her Jean Nate' cologne which she always wore. Maybe I'll break down one of these days and try the vinegar thing, if I can find one that smells like cinnamon/apple or some such fragrance....lol :)<br />MomAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29617239.post-92222601942466962842012-01-09T05:20:44.309-07:002012-01-09T05:20:44.309-07:00I so much admire your resourcefulness and thrift;...I so much admire your resourcefulness and thrift; not to mention it's all just plain better....for you, for your family, for your budget and for our planet.
