like tomorrow for the next batch of laundry to do. I'm a farm wife and DH's jeans get really dirty...hot water and this soap gets the surface dirt out....manure stains well that's another story. City gals really don't know what dirt is.
canmitch I like the idea of adding the lavender...Thanks.
Boy I'm with you on this. We live on the family farm, plum all 5 of my men work on cars, 2 of them off the farm as they jobs one changes oil all day and the our works on them so you can see the oil and grease that come home for me to get out. I like to idea of OxyClean add to the mix Will gave this a try. I have been making my soap in the slow cooker I put the dry things and a part if the water [ just to full the cooker]. mix it as walk by. them when it is well mixed I move to the storage pail and add all the water and mix again and as need.
