The gals over here: http://www.maryjanesfarm.org/snitz/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=29127 have such a good idea for "cleaning up!" What about a MaryJane's book of Household Handiness? Okay, so much for the corny name, but what about a book in the "Cleaning Up" area that has recipes for a farm/home that are safe, effective - and fun to make, to boot.

Now, this probably isn't a new one, but reading the gals' posts just brought it to mind...

XOXO, Libbie

I really like that idea. It could push me into finally making the leap into making my own cleaning supplies.

Yes, because I hate having to search for all the answers. : )

I have my own which I call the household bible. It would be nice to have it all in one place, that is easy to follow.

I would buy one, because I trust MaryJane! I have two of her books and so far I have not been stirred wrong. :-)

Anne - Julia reported that she had some of the makings of a "Green Clean Recipe Book" on the Homesafe area. Maybe you guys could hook up on this?

Count me in too. Sounds like we all need this. But check out her book "Mary Janes Idea book.......there are already a lot of ideas in there.
