Time for Thursday...Got a buck?

Well, I suppose you can't call this a daily blog if there are days missing (Wednesday) whoops. So instead, I will just focus on the fun stuff.

Did you know yesterday was earth day? (Oh yep, here she goes, dagum tree hugger) Shouldn't everyday be earth day? Or at least we should try and treat it that way?

WARNING: Your chemical laundry detergent may contain:Phenols, optical brighteners, phosphates, EDTA, artificial fragrance, ammonia, sodium sulphate, and a chemical foaming agent. Really do you want your clothes to smell like a mountain forest? Is it necessary? Did you know that some of those chemicals cause skin allergies, pollute the water system, and are highly suspect carcinogens? Why not switch to a natural laundry detergent? Something that makes your clothes smell clean and not like a spring meadow. So you want to try some General Deasil's All Natural Laundry Detergent? Many of my All Natural Products are available in a trial size for just a buck and a little bit of shipping. Just ask Kat@GeneralDeasil.com. Even more exciting, I have just finished working with Creations to develop a wonderful All Natural Stain Stick to pretreat those stubborn stains that just won't go away priced the same as the national brand. See being green doesn't have to be expensive.

Don't forget you need to recycle that huge plastic bottle.

So today I will challenge you to add one green thing to your routine per week. Switch to cloth towels over paper towels, cloth napkins over paper napkins, take your cans to the recycle center, switch to a water filter system and leave the bottles at the store, change one of your cleaning products to an all natural product, make one less trip out in the car, plant a vegetable, use reusable bags over paper or plastic...do something!
