I saw a recipe today for homemade laundry detergent on offbeathome.com that included baking soda and Purex crystals. I've used the cloth diaper detergent from the EFF website for all of our clothes for over a year now and I loooove it. I'm wondering what purpose the baking soda has in this new recipe though....deodorant properties? I wonder if it is worth it. I'm also wondering how ecofriendly Purex crystals really are....I've heard somewhere that Purex claims to be 92% ecofriendly, but who knows if that's true or not. But I do like the idea of my clothes smelling good again....
