My lastest and favorite homemade cleaning supplies right now are the all-purpose cleaner and the window cleaner I found... the recipes are from Mary Jane Farms magazine.
The all purpose cleaner is WONDERFUL! you can create the smell you want by trying different scents of liquid castile soap in the mixture... I currently am using a lemon/almond scent and I am LOVING it! (personally I think this stuff works as well as 409 or fantastic and it only costs 30 cents to make 12-16 oz!!!!)
1 TBS WHITE VINEGAR
1 TBS LEMON JUICE
1 TBS LIQUID CASTILE SOAP
1 TBS BORAX
1 CUP DISTILLED H2O
(ESSENTIAL OILS - OPTIONAL)
(MIX AND PUT IN SPRAY BOTTLE)
The window cleaner is also really nice, the small bit of liquid castile soap makes a glass conditioner of sorts (the old windows at the ranch are thankful for sure!) It cleans like a dream and sort of revives the glass itself! (Currently I am using a peppermint castile soap and it helps cut the vinegar smell,plus it costs 5 cents for 16 oz!)
1/4 tsp -1/2 tsp LIQUID CASTILE SOAP
3 TBS WHITE VINEGAR
2 CUPS DISTILLED WATER
(MIX AND PUT IN SPRAY BOTTLE... SHAKE GENTLY BEFORE USE)
so, hope some of you try these and enjoy them! I am having such fun! and saving money while getting a fabulous, natural product... how great!

Sweet Summer
Some summer sweets and funnies...
Boaz my sweet with his head bandage... he took a nasty spill into the corner of a wall! learning to walk is treacherous!
We laughed for a good 20 minutes at gabriel my busy bee after Denver encouraged him to get "really dirty" in the field one night. he was rolling and laying in the dust, this picture is AFTER we blew him off with the air hose. I practically had to deep clean the bath tub after he got out!!! :)
This is a regular face from Boaz... especially if tickled or if Gabriel does something funny :)
The harvest line up complete with the working men :) Daddy (Denver) and Poppy (Monty)
Harvest has gone well this year, the crops are not good for anyone, but we are still very thankful to our Lord and Savior for keeping us afloat! His tender mercies and abundant blessings are the RICHES in our lives! We are truly thankful and blessed.
