It looks like shredded cheddar, doesn't it? It doesn't smell like it and it certainly doesn't taste like it. Although that could be a fun prank....
I whipped up my first batch of homemade laundry detergent. I posted about my mother in-law's soap mix way back in November. But, since we had a huge jug of liquid detergent on hand it took us until now to need more soap! It's very simple and cheap - grate 1 bar Fels -Naptha and mix it with 1 c. Borax and 1 c. Washing Soda (all found in the laundry detergent aisle). I've used 1 Tbsp. of the mix per load in my HE washer and the results have been great!
It feels good to have a better understanding of what's in our detergent, to pay so little for the ingredients and to use to little for each load. So far, so good!
Good for you! The triple batch I had made in October finally ran out, so I made more last week. It lasts and lasts, at a tablespoon a load. I too like the results. And cheap? For sure!!
