Scratch-Made Laundry Detergent Field Card

This is the one that started everything. My mom made me a batch of homemade laundry detergent and I loved it. No irritation, clothes came out clean, and I suddenly realized the store shelf was not my only option.

Four ingredients. All of them pronounceable. Two tablespoons per load, works in HE machines, and it costs less than what you were buying even when you use the "good stuff". My teenagers use the right amount every time. That might be the most impressive part.

The Field Card covers the recipe, the full batch breakdown, and how to get the soap bar into powder form without making a production out of it.
