Parenting tales: water

I don't know about you, but to help kill the germs in my water I usually order it with lemon...ahhh so refreshing and sniff sniff "did someone smell poop?" Oh no, not to worry, the antibiotics and pain killers will certainly take that poopy water and make it better for you, right? Ah yes, what else can we plague our bodies with?

So much for those antibiotic-free cows and chickens...cause if the farmers aren't feeding it to them, they are certainly drinking it.

But have we considered the other ways we are polluting our drinking water? I remember years ago a study was done on antibiotic soap. Not only is it not good for your body, but when it gets into the water system and meets our disinfecting chemical chlorine, it causes a bad chemical reaction. That is one reason why I don't use antibiotic soap anymore...the second reason being the stories of children actually burning their hands with the soap because they were not properly rinsing the soap off.

Luckily for you, I have a soap solution that is people and environmental friendly. Yes that is right, roll-up those sleeves cause for this weekend's WSD we are doing dishes!

Curious and all on my own (I was not paid to review this product), I noticed this all natural dish soap on the store shelves called Seventh Generation...so I picked it up and read it...It claimed to be free and clear of harmful chemicals that pollute our waterways. I was feeling pretty brave and bought some plus some dishwasher soap.

And the results are good. The dishes are clean out of the dishwasher and the stuff I hand wash cleans easily. The only part I wasn't thrilled with was the "natural" smell because it reminded me of cardboard boxes. LOL! But they do sell some with fresh scents.
