Sudsy, sudsy, sudsy….

I keep reading about how to make your towels softer and fluffier. It’s often caused by using too much detergent in our washing machines, especially the HE ones. When we got our washer for the house seven years ago, it was my first agitator-less machine so I read up on using it. I discovered we were using way too much detergent in our small stack washer in the RV so I was determined to not use too much in this one.

Another change, another choice

In the past I’ve written here about my moving my wardrobe into wool (I’ve since included cotton/flannel/hemp/linen as well) and chemical additives. Now one more thing has changed. We have moved from plastic cutting boards back to wooden ones. While the plastic ones were easy to toss in the dishwasher, we were unknowingly putting microplastics into our food (and environment). There have been several recent studies and reports on this.
