I have made laundry detergent a few times through the years and recently started making it again. I ran out of detergent this week and I had all the ingredients to make up a new batch. So I thought I would share this simple recipe with you. This is a low sudsing detergent. I was really surprised at how soft my towels are. It is my understanding that this is good for HE washers as well as regular.
**Here is the recipe!
1 bar Zote (grated) You can see in the picture that I used the pink bar this time.
2 cups washing soda
2 cups borax
1 cup OxiClean (optional) For extra cleaning power!
I mix these ingredients together and place them in a container. I use 1/3 cup per large load of laundry.
Here is where I found my recipe. You will find other laundry soap recipes on her site as well as this one.

The Smyrna Church of Christ held the Annual Fish Fry yesterday. (and I almost missed it! Thanks to Val for the reminder!) This has been going on for many years. It is a fun time and everyone brings friends and family to this event. The fish and hush puppies are provided and the rest of us bring sides and desserts. I made my GIANT pan of Blueberry Crunch Pie. I received this recipe from a lady at the Adamsville Church of Christ just before I got married almost 37 years ago. If you have eaten at my house chances are good that you have tried this dessert. Earlier this year I tried a lemon version. You can find that one here: http://www.redaredding.com/lemon-crunch-pie/
