I know, I know, you're thinking "it's about time she gets back to "Green Tip Tuesdays"Yes, it is about time...I mean I should try to have SOME standards around here.Today, I'm going to share my latest find in "Mother Earth News" magazine.It's a recipe I've been searching for for quite some time now:Homemade Liquid Dish Soap

Ingredients:

Liquid Soap
10 drops Lavender essential oil
8 drops Rosemary essential oil
4 drops eucalyptus essential oil

1. Fill a clean, 22-ounce plastic squirt bottle with liquid soap (you'll want to dilute it according to the directions if you're using a concentrate).2. Add the essential oils.Be sure to shake the bottle before each use adding 1 to 2 tablespoons to your dishwater and wash as usual.(source: Mother Earth News)They also share recipes for making dishwasher powder, but since we don't have a dishwasher I won't be making those. If you're interested in those recipes though click here to be taken to their site.While you're there, take a look around. I LOVE this magazine and am certain you will find lots on their site to love too!Be Healthy, Be Green!
