What Manly Things Did You Do Today?

You have worked hard!

 

1 (4 lb 12 oz) Box of Borax– Found in the detergent aisle
1 (3 lb 7 oz) Box of Arm & Hammer Super Washing Soda– Found in the detergent aisle
1 (3 lb) Container of OxyClean–I purchase three one pounders at Dollar Tree
2 (14.1 oz) Bars of Zote Soap– Found in the detergent aisle
1 (4 lb) Box of Arm & Hammer Baking Soda– Found in the baking aisle

I cut the Zote in to chunks and put it though my food processor or you can grate it up on a grater.

I bought everything, except the Oxyclean from Walmart.

For each load you use 1-2 Tablespoon ... I just use the small scoop that comes with the Dollar Tree Oxyclean.

I hope that helps.

 

Hid 60 Easter eggs today. I may have forgotten where I hid a couple of them.

 

Did you hide a couple raw ones?

 

I plead the 5th.

 

That's the one upside to getting old and senile... you can hide your own Easter eggs.

 

If you hide raw ones now you have all year to be surprised.

 

Best hidden in the hall closet or a hard to reach space.

 

Very cool. Thanks!

 

BTW The Zote soap is kind of sticky and likes to clump. SoI found that when you use the food processor, to sprinkle some of the Baking Soda in with the chunked up Zote so that it keeps it from clumping. Then mix all the ingredients together in a large bucket until its homogenized.

 

My husband & I won first place at the archery club tournament. (It’s a total-point, 6-week event, for teams of 2.) I am the first woman to win this and we are the first married couple to do it.

 

to you both and


​

 

SO AWESOME!!!!!!

 

The safety on my little KitchenAid food processor broke and wouldn't let me use it properly.

I dissembled and bypassed it ...... now it runs great!

BTW I only use this one to make my laundry detergent every 14 months and I store it on top of my kitchen cupboards.

 

Congrats!

 

Congratulations! Way to go! What kind of bow do you use? I know very little about bows, other than compound and long bows.

 

congratulations

 

Thats great Sara! Congrats on the WIN!

 

Been living in the South for better part of a year now and just before sunup this morning I noticed a small tree in front of my workplace, one with large white flowers starting to open. Went up and inhaled deeply, not expecting anything. Oh, what an intoxicatingly nice citrus-floral fragrance. Turns out I just met my first magnolia. What a wonderful tree.

 

We have Magnolias here in CT as well. I don't know if there are different sub species, but they are a beautiful tree when in bloom.
