I must give credit to Robert Rutledge for this one (Robyn’s dad). He is hooked on the DIY laundry detergent and has expended to the homemade dishwasher detergent. (that’s him on the couch)
I have to admit, I had looked up this recipe a while back, but in the past my DW did not do well with a powder detergent so we have stuck with Cascade gel- even though I HATE the $$$ that I have to spend to get it.
I’m gonna give this a whirl and I’ll let you know how it works. (Update- used it and it worked BEAUTIFULLY!)
Recipe:
1 cup baking soda
1 cup borax
1/2 cup table salt
mix together
If you have the ingredients for the laundry detergent, then you have what you need for this. Just give it a try. Share it with a neighbor if it didn’t work for you.
Nonni, you are getting mine, if it doesn’t work. (so sorry bout your luck- it worked:I can make you some if you want)
For the rinse agent simply fill up your rinse dispenser (where jet dry liquid goes) with white vinegar. That will work for anyone!

I love homeade recipes for cleaning ! I think rinse aid is too darn expensive - love the vinegar instead !

You need to go on Oprah and tell the world about all this. I hope you are feeling better today. Remind me about Jenna's Game on Thurs. I would be upset if I got there and She could not come. Love the pictures of Jade.
