All About Cloth Diapers

*~{insert tune to the song that never ends}~*… it just goes on and on my friend. Can you guess what it is?? Laundry. Tons and tons of laundry. It never ends.  When I think I have some semblance of control over it, it grows exponentially for no logical reason. Okay, so maybe the 2 adults [...]

Anytime a reader posts a question about ammonia someone recommends Eco Sprout detergent.  After jumping on the bandwagon of other highly raved about items and being disappointed I decided to sit this one out. But, money does in fact burn a hole in your pocket (you knew that right?).  I had some affiliate money with [...]

My friend Emi of The Cloth Diaper Report got me thinking about this with her How To Clean Your Washing Machine series. I own a Samsung Steam washer and dryer and while it does have a Pure Clean cycle I can’t say I’ve used it as often as I should. After reading Emi’s “Daily Routine” [...]

This is such a fun post to write! I have a terrible memory so digging into the deep recesses, although difficult, will be exciting none-the-less. 2010, has been of year of much experimenting, trying out new things and problem solving. From FL woes to ammonia to the irresistibly cute cloth diapers that are sent my [...]

Since June of this year I have been blogging and Facebooking about my extreme annoyance with ammonia. In June, I asked are “Ammonia cloth diapers burning your baby?” That post is where I talked about RLR. I tried it, it worked for a little while and then I was right back where I started. In [...]

I get dozens of questions via email and comments daily. I try my best to answer them promptly but sometimes life gets in the way and days go by. In an effort to allow you to help each other and to give more attention to these great questions, I am starting a new series. Cloth [...]
