We made the Homemade Laundry Detergent

Ok, so I finally got around to making the laundry detergent...yayyy!

I told you guys I was going to use some misc. bars of soap I had left over. My only concern is that the smells might not mix, I don't know. It does not smell bad...but! I have washed everything in the house prior to last night so I have nothing to experiment on to see how this will work. And technically if it works or not I have a ton of it so we'll be using it lol! As far as the amount, I do not believe it made as much as the original recipe but I did not use sprinkles either. The link for the original recipe will be at the bottom of the page. 


I wish you could see the colors better. It's like ombre. It's 2 shades of blue and purple.


My container from Dollar General!


I layered the the powders with the bar soap shavings, it was 10 million times prettier in person!

All mixed (and of course you guys can't see the colors)



Whenever we finally accumulate more laundry to wash I will definitely let you know how the detergent works!

Homemade Seasonings

I found this on Pinterest. Several things I do miss about being allergy free. So happy they can be duplicated at home Make sure the minced onions are JUST onions. I personally would use kosher salt. Use raw sugar. Instead of sour cream use 0% greek yogurt. 

Homemade Taco Sauce

This is nice and uncomplicated! You know the only thing I'd change is the salt and make it kosher, other than that this recipe is clean. I haven't made it yet but I will the next time I need taco sauce! Homemade things are better!

Hough Bakery - butter cookies

Hough Bakery By  Gail Greenberg   &   Diane Rolfe Hough Bakery was an integral  part of me and my family's lives, (most people in Cleveland for that matter) I was heartbroken when they closed. I have  always remembered the cookies and doughnuts from this magical bakery. Their products were like nothing I had ever had before (and it was extra  magical because I was so little/young) I have been searching for about 30 years for something similar - no luck... but, thank goodness there are a few recipes floating around the internet! Unfortunately  even with Archie's being open, my food afflictions will not allow  me to enjoy those old time favorites. Luckily, converting is what I do and that's what this site is about so I  will switch some things  around and see how it turns out! The recipe below is just ONE of my all time favorites, please enjoy! Memories of a signature blue-and-white, string-tied cake box filled with a streusel coffee cake, hot cross buns, stick
