Green Goose Review

 I LOVE the name of this hard working lady's business!! She makes everything from dryer balls and dryer SHEETS to "Honker Hankies"-- take a wild guess what those are!!!! =) =)
  She has something unique for everyone!!!!

  I have to say that one of my favorites out of her items that I have purchased is her "Ouchie Bags". We keep all but one of ours in the freezer for all the "ouchies" in our house! (Which are quite a few!!)  They are pouches filled with Flax seed... they can be heated or cooled to help with all those aches and pains... and ouchies!!!

 On to what I'm really here to review!!!!


 My daughter is 2 1/2 and has just begun her hair piece fettish!!!! We were sent a beautifully made hairbow that I have a hard time getting away from my daughter at bedtime!!!!
  It is fluffy and soft and sits in her hair so nicely with the alligator clip it is attached to!!  We have had such wonderful comments about it!!!
  I find myself saying " I Wish" when people ask me if I made it!!!  I just giggle, and after admitting that NO I don't have that talent I always tell them " a very talented lady made that for her"!!

 
Everyday I feel like I am reviewing another product for "Goose"!!   Our items that we have purchased are used practically EVERY day!!!

 So PLEASE, do yourself a favor and go over to her site, LIKE her and find something to try!!! She really does EXCELLENT work!!!
 Thank you Goose!! I hope your Gander appreciates you as much as I do!!! =) =)

Uses for my"laundry" detergent ( ROCKIN GREEN GIVEAWAY!!!!!)

I hate to do this again....  I LOVE my Rockin Green!!!!!  actually I LOVE doing this!!!!! IT ROCKS!!!

 1.  I use it on my cloth diapers.... Keeps them fresh and clean and daddy friendly!!! ( Husband was not a fan of cloth to start!!) (Classic)

 2. I use it for my husbands WORK clothes!!  He works on machines for a pharmacy company... greasy, slimy.. gross stuff comes home With him!!!! ( I use Hard Rock for this)

3. I use it to clean my bathroom and kitchen floors!!  I take one Tbls. in a 48 oz. spray bottle .. add water to the stop and mix.

4. I use it to clean out my tubs and shower!!!!  Same mix as #3.. spray.. let set then go over with a scrubbie? or just rinse if not much is built up from the time before!!

5. I use it to scrub my carpets!!!  I take 4 Tbls. per refill tank on my carpet scrubber.. HOT water ( of course) works best!!!  I always go over it with my vaccuum when dry!!!

6. I use it in my dishwasher!!   I use a Tsp. in my dishwasher (dry) compartment... Rinses so..clean!! Things I never imagined it could clean!!!  I used it on some things that were dirty, grimy and yucky from my grandmothers kitchen... Soaked them for a hour and used a regular sponge. Off it all came!!! SOOOO beautiful!!!!

  What makes me the happiest about having this cleaner in my house.... I don't have to kick my kids out of the house while I do this!!! Carpets.... Cleaning the bathroom!!! Those were jobs that I did when they were outside.. or somewhere else!! No fan or mask needed to clean in my bathroom anymore!!!!

Joy

Joy is a gift.... and it comes in sooo many forms.
  Christmas is a time of giving.. yet so many people don't understand that Christmas is really about our faith. Faith at times I feel is overrated.  Many people don't have any.  I have a ton!!!
  Love and kindness I feel come right along with faith. Jesus came down to earth and lived with all the "Hicks" that he was soo much better than.. he then gave up his life for them... and us. So that we can go on being sinful and unkind??
 We need to consider why God put us here. We are guardians of the next generation... who in turn will be the guardians of the next generation... and so on.
   Please, always remember to keep Christ in Christmas all year long... as my grandmother said yesterday to me..." Christmas should be more than just a couple of days"!!!
  Consider making Jesus a birthday cake next year!!!  It will bring a smile to EVERYONE"S face!!!!!


                                            God bless you and yours in this New Year!!!!

Cutesy Tushies Cloth Diapers I was first introduced to Cutesy Tushies Cloth Diapers through an auction on a familiar site to me!!! She was running specials on her pocket diapers for 10 $ a piece!!! I had only tried one other WAHM diaper and that was one made special for us that we won!!!!!  I wasn't totally sure what to expect.. as many people do different things...

Rockin Green Laundry Detergent!!!!!!

My new ( MONTHS AGO) obsession!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Rockin Green Laundry Detergent!!!!!  I heard about it on Facebook... we have never really had issues with detergent!!!!!
   We started cloth diapering in January!!!! My Third child was born the end of January... I determined around October of 2009 that I was going to cloth diaper it!!!!!
   I had discussed it with my husband, ( much to his dismay) in length... he said..whatever!!?!!  So I started looking at a couple different kinds.... I was VERY soon brought to Cotton Babies and their BumGenius diapers....!!!! 
    I was still working at this time @ my VERY flexible.. never sure one week to the next when I had to work job!!!!   We could afford to buy them them... mostly!!  So I started a small stash before my son was born.
 I purchased a few other "cloth" diaper detergents... used one up and BARELY started one before I got my Rockin Green samples!!!  I ABSOLUTELY was in LOVE!!!!!  I bought a few more bags.. found a local lady.. bought a few more bags.. now I have gone through... BAGS of this detergent!!!!!
    We use this detergent for everything in my house!!! My husbands greasy, dirty, gross work clothes... our pajamas, sheets, coats... DIAPERS... I have NEVER cared about what went into my clothes.. until I found ROCKIN GREEN!!!!!!     I now have a small stock of this detergent that I sell out of my home to others who NEED to be obsessed!!!!
      Thank you Kim and crew @ Rockin Green Detergent!!!!  This product is not replaceable to me!!!!! =)
