Does Soap Grow On Trees

Haley — Wed, 29 Dec 2010 22:30:11 +0000

I have a confession to make, I’m a laundry soap junky. I love trying different eco-friendly laundry soaps; I know I’m weird. The brand Method, which I’m sure a lot you have either used or seen on the store shelves was kind enough to support my addiction. Method sent me their plant based laundry detergent to [...]

Taking Off Your Mask When Using Clorox

Haley — Thu, 25 Feb 2010 13:00:06 +0000

Not to long ago the key component to selling a product was marketing and branding, well not anymore. One of the key components now is ingredients. The public is more conscious about their health and what goes into the production of the products they are using. The saying “you are what you eat, or consume” [...]

I’m off to VASKA my clothes

Haley — Mon, 22 Feb 2010 13:00:45 +0000

Everyone uses laundry detergent but how many people use herbatergent? I was lucky enough to be given the opportunity to review Vaska’s “herbatergnet” for a product review. Vaska is a company based out of California and uses real herbs and botanicals to wash laundry. Vaska has two herbatergent’s; I opted to review the light lavender [...]

Remodel or Cover it Up?

greenandcleanmom — Tue, 11 Nov 2008 12:55:30 +0000

My home is 26 years old and when we purchased it from my mother-in-law we did some remodeling to make it ours. There are things in the home I’m not crazy about but it is an older home and I didn’t pick out the woodwork, closet doors, window frames, etc. That’s what happens when you [...]

Christmas Gifts, Holiday Traditions and Going Green

greenandcleanmom — Mon, 03 Nov 2008 12:02:32 +0000

Halloween is over and the next holiday that my son starts to talk about is Christmas. Not that Thanksgiving isn’t important but really he doesn’t like turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing and pie and he gets bored with football on the television. Are family celebrates thanksgiving with gusto but for my son, Christmas is what he [...]

What does organic, romantic and bathtime have in common?

greenandcleanmom — Thu, 30 Oct 2008 12:00:18 +0000

Bathing my children, it’s a nightly routine. It’s calming for the children and for me, I like to have the children smelling clean. Sorry, I just do. I always took a bath nightly and so do my children. They bath together and we don’t use very much water, so were conserving. Using a non-toxic, gentle [...]

Plastic Grocery Bags: Everyone has some!

greenandcleanmom — Wed, 29 Oct 2008 12:00:41 +0000

I know that the proper green phase is “reduce, reuse, recycle” and that they are in the order of importance. So the best thing would be to use less plastic grocery bags. And we do – a lot less. However, I do not think I will ever get my husband to take a cloth bag [...]
