There are countless DIY articles how to make your own soaps and to clean everything using nothing but a piece of earth friendly fabric and vinegar (I jest a little, but not completely). There are a few problems inherent to many green cleaning solutions:
- Time/convenience: for example who in the world has time to make their own laundry soap? I commend the homesteading, off-the-grid lifestyle choices. They certainly are inspiring. To borrow from a popular meme: “Ain’t nobody got time for that.”
- Effectiveness: I had used a popular earth friendly detergent for years. And my whites eventually became grey. The only way I could keep them white was to add bleach every few loads. Which seemed to offset my intention of going green.
- Scent: Let’s face it. Vinegar and rubbing alcohol do a lovely job of cleaning, but then your house smells like pickles or a hospital. Yeah, it’s clean. And smells weird.
As our college-aged children are returning home for break, the laundry and dishes multiplied exponentially. This made us especially grateful for the gift pack we received from our friends at #GrabGreen. They sent out a sample pack of their fantastic products for us to test just in time to introduce Mount Laundry From Two Dorms to Time For Home Cooking. Our washing machine and dishwasher have been in marathon use!
