I'd say probably a tablespoon per load and probably less would work, too. You could say it does "up to___ loads" and give instructions for them to start with a tablespoon and go up from there. Say it depends on their water and what type of dirt in their laundry....a mechanic's clothes would...

You need to grind the oats into a flour for soap. I've read that a coffee mill works for this if you don't have a grain mill. I've had soap made with regular oatmeal and it was AWFUL to use. It was given to me, and I tossed the second bar, it was that bad. I loved all the other soaps I was...

Umm......Go back to my last post......

Hmmm.....how is five pounds only 40 loads? I use little sandwich bags, less than half full, to make up mixes and use the water method to make two gallons of the liquid, which does 64 loads at about 1.4 cents per load. Yours is about ten times that. Still a good deal, but....are you giving...

I'm not talking about salt and sugar....salt, at least, is a nutrient that is necessary for health and life. I'm talking about things that weren't in food a couple of centuries ago. Things that don't need to be there. I read this in Signs and Symptoms Analysis from a Functional Perspective...

:welcome Have you also posted this on byh? It is more effective, too, to put your location in your title, more people will look.... Hope you stick around and join the conversations!

None of those ten pounds of food additives are healthy or necessary. All cause problems, whether one "feels" it now or not. Personally, I'd like to see my own consumption of additives be a big fat zero. That is very difficult to do, but any reduction is a step in the right direction.

It takes a while to make big lifestyle changes, just keep plugging away! I probably used to consume 20 lbs a year myself! :rolleyes:

That will be my new answer to the "a little never killed anyone" types. A little adds up, and a lot will kill ya! It will show up as pancreatitis, liver dysfunctions, etc.

I agree with Bee and disagree with myself on the neutral colors...... :lol: I helped a friend sell semi-precious beaded jewelry for a while and we needed very neutral display materials, otherwise the beads would look washed out or disappear into the background. All my "dressy" tops now are...

....TEN POUNDS of chemical food additives per year?? :ep

Is this like a milking stanchion? Does anyone need to be restrained? Savingdogs, are you behaving yourself? :D

Well, I didn't say that.....:lol: Isn't everyone here a bit loony? :P You are going into this right during holiday shopping time, so you should do ok for the first two months. If you can get repeat business, you are golden. Can you set up an email account or something so you can put contact...

I used a product called "Litter Green" some years ago and I think it was basically alfalfa pellets (now that I know what alfalfa pellets look like!) I liked the odor control of the product but my cats didn't care for the texture. I imagine this product is textured in a more cat-friendly way...

Paint your shelves and backgrounds in a neutral color that will not distract from your items....can you do paint techniques like crackle or antique wash? That would lend to the rustic look. Is this one of those places where you don't have to be there to man the booth at all? If so, you'll...

Yup. And many people focus on storing things that lead to poor nutrition, which puzzles me. Another way to preserve herbs medicinally.....you can make wine with them. This won't be as strong as a tincture made with vodka or 95% alcohol, but is an easy way of getting the job done. Glass...

Combining trips saves a lot on gas whenever you can do it. We know all the discount stores along our regular work routes and plan to pick needed supplies up when we are already driving by. Since we rarely "shop" (meaning wander through a store looking at stuff....although this is important on...

You'll probably find that once you have the scale, you'll use it for other things......maybe. I do. I lay a piece of plastic wrap over it when using it to keep it clean from spills.

For something super healthy, look online for homemade larabar recipes. They are fruit, nuts, and spices and that is it....the best bars on the market, imo. If you want a compromise between super healthy and....um....less so, use a basic rice crispies treats recipe with marshmallows and butter...

Some cats do get stressed by ANY food changes, even gradual ones. Even to a better food. This stress alone can lead to cystitis and "thinking outside the box." We had a cat who was like this....we resolved it and he was fine for the second 8 years of his life and never pee'd outside the box...
