Thank you so much for these! I have been wondering how I can "green clean."
Can I make a request? It seems that a lot of conversations that I have been having with people lately have been about ironing and I was wondering what sort of ironing tips you may have.
thanks for the ?. we will respond with some tips shortly!
christy just showed me that PALMOLIVE ECO + automatic dish detergent. I've never seen it & I was so excited! it's only available at target (in our area anyway!) for now, but you bet I'm gonna try me some. plus, who doesn't love a trip to target!?
