Wednesday's Words of Wisdom

When we start counting flowers,

we cease counting weeds;

When we start counting blessings,

we cease counting needs;

When we start counting laughter,

we cease counting tears;

When we count happy memories,

we cease counting years.

~Barbara Kunz Loots~

Guide to: Making Your Own Foaming Hand Soap

Did you know that you could save some pennies by making your own foaming hand soap? I know what you're thinking . . . I can only save pennies, is this worth my time? This IS worth your time especially if you have kids who like to play in the sink like I do.

The next time you run out of foaming soap, don't throw out the pump. Add about 30 - 40% hand soap, shampoo or body wash to the empty pump bottle. Then, fill it up the rest of the way with water. Screw the lid on and shake it up really well. You want the soap to dissolve in the water. That's it!

It's simple, easy and quick. I know you are probably only saving pennies, but over time those pennies add up quickly.
