Necessity is the Mother of Invention


I have found a great way to SMASH and be environmentally friendly too. We had run out of dishwasher soap and had a load of dishes to run with another load was waiting in the sink. My hubby and I looked at other and said what can we use to clean these dishes.

Here is what we did. We put two small ramekin dishes in the top of our dishwasher side by side. One dish had vinegar and the other dish had baking soda. The vinegar and baking soda mix with water in the wash and our dishes come out cleaner than very before.

We are saving tons of money not buying dishwasher soap and we are not putting soap and chemicals down our drain.

Try it and tell me what you think.

Sometimes I just want to say Thank You



Sometime I just want to use my blog to say Thank You! Thanks to Dance Blue for raising money to help kids with cancer and to Gigi's for the great cupcakes.
I love when a business gives the glory to God. Great story. Gigi's gave great Cupcakes to the families of cancer kids at Dance Blue this weekend.

It is a year-long fundraising effort involving thousands of UK students, which culminates in a 24-hour no-sitting, no-sleeping dance marathon on UK's campus. All of the money raised by DanceBlue goes to the Golden Matrix Fund. DanceBlue has been active for over five years, raising almost two million dollars for the UK Pediatric Oncology Clinic and Markey Cancer Center.
