Not sure if this is the right place for this or not, Im watching this show about "health conscious recipes" and she's making a peach-pie smoothie ( I kno, sounds good right?) so she started with frozen peaches, "Which are actually comparible to fresh" not so sure about that, but ok. Then she...

Just curious, anyone try using whole wheat flour in this? Maybe a blend...

Could just be that there were already some eggs or larvae in the apples. We don't like to think about it but chances of eating tiny eggs along with your organic fruit are definately there...

I've been told by a few different ppl that you shouldn't use powdered detergent with a septic tank, anyone here have any experience with this?

I used a handmade bar of soap (not sure exactly what was in it, honey something, it was a gift) and am wondering if that might be the reason. Also it has seperated after the fact, also normal?

So I used the liquid recipe posted a while back, but I'm not sure I did it right. I added the borax and washing soda to the 2quarts of water and it got kinda clumpy. I also added 1/4cup of salt cause I have hard water... It that supposed to happen? It seemed to all disolve when I added the rest...

That actually makes alot of sense, has anyone ever seen that science project where you put a tooth into coke? Apparently it only takes a day or two to rot it! And it'll clean a nasty old penny in an hour, or eat corrosion off your battery cables/posts! The really messed up part? I kno all of...

Hmmm, I know how to make a lanolin wash, and my understanding is that originally fabric softener was made from lanolin and at some point they started using petrolium based oils. If you're looking for dryer sheets you can use a lanolin rinse (with your fave EO) on fleece squares...not sure how to...

Hi from Western Mass everyone!!

So I've got my borax n washing soda, now the question is, can I use a handmade bar and if so how much? I've had no luck finding zote or felsnaptha so I'm unsure of what size the bar of soap is supposed to be...and again, anyone with any luck using handmade soap and it retaining it's scent, like...

Teatree oil, just a drop or three on a paper towel and rub it on the filter. It's naturally anti-fungal, so if it got a bit of mold, that'll kill it. Or you could try washing the filters again and letting them dry in the sun, or if your weather isn't that warm yet put them on the dashboard of...

Seriously interesting stuff, so every 3rd day or so? Is it an immediate affect or does it take a few doses to start working?

Thanks everyone for the helpful suggestions (and welcome Diane!) I don't have any sudafed but am getting some today to try on her. I'm also not planning on doing raw, going to do the cooked version. So no grains at all though? Why Does every dogfood known to man use it if it's not good for them...

over production of oils happens with too frequent washing, it can over stimulate oil producing glands. try only rinsing every other day instead of shampooing, see if you can retrain those glands, just a thought. Good luck! =}

I haven't had any labs done yet, we're a bit finacially strapped at the moment and was hoping changing her diet a bit could help, and honestly didn't think it would hurt. If you have any suggestion that are a bit cheaper (ie free! ;)); checking stools for certain color/consistancy ect I'd...

Well, my dog Marz is 13 and she has started leaking pee, and have been told to try homemade food before steroids or other meds. Somethng about lowering phospherous or something... Can't remeber rite now. But wastold to mix chicken, barley, rice,oats, sweet tatoes, beets,ect into a stew and see...
