Official Poll: What are the products that you make/produce at home?

I like to use white vinegar and Baking soda to clean toilets foams up and cleans any stains in there.
Also 35 % hydrogen peroxide mixed with water makes a great mouth wash.

I made my own laundry detergent but after I got my HD washer was worried it might not work too well in it so stopped making it.

You can make a nice butter spread using Olive oil and butter it spreads so nice. 1cup of olive oil to 1lb of butter mixed in food processor.

Air freshner, I use lavender essential oil and water in a spray bottle so nice to spray pillows with it.

We raise chickens and ducks for eggs and occasionally process extra roosters, also have geese for the yard work. Their eggs are yummy too, seems either it's been to hot and dry for gardening or too wet we have been on the wet side again this year. But so far the tomatoes and peppers are doing pretty good in spite of it.

I raise all my meat, beef, pork, chicken, and goat. I didn't do very good with the garden this year. I am going to do a fall garden if things go as planned. With the heat we are having this summer I am going to cover it with black plastic and try and kill out the grass or put the chickens on it for a while.

Do you do your own butchering also?

I took the calf and pigs to a butcher but do the rest myself.
