Non-Food Recipes

Some of my non-food recipes that I have. The homemade detergent sounds interesting, I may have to try it out as we have allergies.

Homemade Laundry Detergent

1 1/2 Bars Fels Naptha Soap
1 C 20 Mule Team Borax
1 C Arm & Hammer Super Washing Soda

Grate Fels Naptha with a grater or use a food processor. Add in the Borax and washing soda. Mix well, place in container that will hold at least 4 cups.

Use:
1 Tbsp Per load of laundry
**add an additional 1 tsp for heavily soiled clothes

Yield: 4 C of detergent using 1 Tbsp will yield 64 loads


Edible Playdough

2 C Honey
2 C Smooth Peanut Butter
2 C Powdered Sugar
1/4 C Flour (more or less to reduce stickiness)

Combine all ingredients, chill 20 min. Store in air tight container in fridge, throw away within 4 weeks.


Colored Playdough

1 C Flour
1 package Kool-Aid (any flavor)
1 Tbsp Cream of tartar
1 Tbsp Vegetable oil
1/4 C Salt
3/4 C Boiling Water (start with 3/4 C and add more if too dry)

Mix all dry ingredients in bowl then add in oil, then pour boiling water in and mix thoroughly. Wrap in cellophane or air tight container and store in fridge. Throw away within 4 weeks. Smells good but tastes awful!
