Back to Simple

One of my new years resolutions was to live simple in regards to our budget.  So I gathered the supplies and scoured the net.  Where recipes abound.  Armed with just a few supplies I proceeded to make hand soap, laundry soap, and dishwashing soap.  My goal is to not have to spend money on expensive brands through out the year.  It only takes a few minutes to make each one.  The longest thing was grating the soap.  After my first batch of using a regular cheese grater, I pulled out  my food processor which cut down even more time.  The next time I make laundry soap I am going to attempt the liquid kind.  I will let you know how it goes.
