Homemade Laundry Detergent - it's AWESOME!
One bar soap
1/2 cup borax
1/2 cup washing soda
Soap: Can use Fels-Naptha, Ivory or any bar soap that does not have added perfumes and dyes.
Washing Soda: This is NOT the same as baking soda. I've found this in the laundry aisle next to the borax. But if you're having trouble, go to the Arm and Hammer web site and call their customer service number. They can tell you which stores in your area carry washing soda.
Shave the one bar of soap using a small grinder. You don't want big chunks.
Mix in borax and washing soda.
Use about 2 Tbsp per load of wash.

No Cook Ice Cream
Ok - I don't recommend using this recipe as it is. There are just too many uncooked eggs. But - we all used to eat it as kids and we are all fine (well - at least most of us are - ha ha). We had to take turns with cranking it down in the basement.
Aunt Ellen mentioned perhaps using the pasteurized liquid eggs from the grocery store would work, but we haven't tried it, so I don't know.
8 eggs
1 cup sugar
2 Tbsp vanilla
1 quart cream
1 can condensed milk
Mix all together. Fill ice cream maker to 2" from top. Make the ice cream per your maker's instructions.
