Fabric Softener Help!

Nope this is not a post about how to make your own fabric softener, this is a post asking for help with making one for my family. Baby J has very sensitive skin that we had not used commercial laundry detergent since she was about 4 mths and her skin was breaking out so bad that they had to bandage her from the skin being ate off. She suffers from eczema and really bad during the colder months. So we take the time to watch what we put on her skin and in her body. We have been using a homemade laundry detergent that works wonders in our home, plus it helps that I made so much of  it that I have not made any more since she was about 1 years old and seeing how she is now going to be 3 this month that is a long time and I still got more to use. But we had not been using any fabric softener and I really do miss using it, I miss the smell of Tide also. So I'm taking in recipes that use all natural product to soften your clothes. If you have any that you think would be great I would appreciate if you share them so that I can give them a try. Winter is approaching which means that her skin will start back to acting funny really badly again because her clothes will now cover her from about the neck on down to her toe again. We hate the cold months around here. Thanks to anyone who has any recipes to help.

Momma's Fried Chicken Meal

My lovely family had a craving for Fried Chicken and I was none the happier to give it to them. I had been wanting to try my what I call leftover seasoning mix. Yes I said leftover seasoning mix, I have this problem where I put all the seasonings that I am going to use for a recipe in pinch bowls without measuring and then just measuring them out once I need them that way I can tweak the recipe when it needs it without having to go back in my cabinets and grabbing a seasoning with dirty hands. I hate going out of my way so I just put a nice amount in pinch bowls and roll with it. Once i'm done with it instead of just putting them back in their containers I use a glass jar and just throw them all in there. So this left over seasoning mix has a little of everything it. It is a wonderful mix for my chicken so my fried chicken never tastes the same but it always tastes good. The thing that they love about my chicken the most is that it's always crispy.

Chicken Noodle Soup Day

Well, while I was all excited about starting a blog I had set out on a venture to make some great meals. Just so happen that life being as unpredictable as it is took over really fast, like the very next day. My house started to come down with the 24hr virus. It hit my second child first early in the day so she never made it to school. Then I got a call from my first child's school that let me know that she needed to come home for her and a few other classmates were sick also. Great is what I am thinking. A bug will now be in my house. I ran to the store to pick up everything to make Chicken Noodle Soup for my girls. No sooner than I made the soup did my third child started feeling sick. Now they are all feeling great and their father is home with the same symptoms, I guess the baby and I are next in this thing.

I was hoping to give a big bang opening of my blog with a recipe but that's not going to happen. So maybe next week once this bug has completely left my home I will post a recipe that I really want to try. It has taken me sometime to pick a recipe that my family will like. Two people in my home will only eat food if it tastes like it came from a box and I have a very picky toddler who likes food mushed up or with extra cheese. So until then, later.
