Home Made Pancakes, Easy and Delicious

 photo IMG_0574.jpg

I've been fiddling around with recipes I had, and found. Most had too much salt, not enough milk, or called of meted butter (what a pain!)

So here is one That my family and I love, and have been using for sometime

1 cup of flour (we use all purpose)
1 tablespoon of sugar
3 teaspoons of Baking powder
1/2 tea spoon of salt (this can easily be brought down to 1/4 teaspoon and it still tastes fine)
1 egg
3/4 cup + 3 table spoons of milk (we use 2%)
2 tablespoons of oil (we use canola)


Sift your dry ingredients together (flour, salt, sugar, baking powder) into a large bowl. I tell you to sift it because sometime if flour sits it can clump together in tiny clumps and you wouldn't want to bite into something to find a ball of flour ;)
Add in your wet ingredients except the last 3 tablespoons of milk and whisk until smooth. Here is the point where you can judge for yourself if you want to add the extra tablespoons of milk or not. 

Use 1/4 cup measuring cup to pour your batter into your hot pan.

Using the 1/4 measurements  you get 12 pancakes at around 65 - 71** calories each!

**65 for no extra milk, and 71 with the extra milk

Enjoy

frugal storage for soup cans

 photo IMG_0567.jpg


I don't know why I have never thought of this before!

My husband drinks cases of pop and I was just about to recycle the pop can case when I looked up and realized my soup cans were knocked over, and laying around. I glanced down and thought what the heck, I can keep them in here. 

The soup cans a re little smaller then the pop cans, but this works great. I painted it, only so we don't confuse the pop with the soup, :)

Garnier BB Creme Review

Garneir BB Cream Pass or buy?

 

Our rating 3 out 5 

I bought this at the end of last year, and found it nice and light, didn't feel cakey on my skin like many other foundations.
However after a few hours of wearing it, my skin became shiny and oily.

I love the weight of it, and makes my skin feel soft, but dont like how shiny It is after a short time of wear. For this fact only I give it a pass

DIY Baby wipes - sorta

 photo DIYWipes.jpg 

4 easy steps to DIY Baby wipes - sorta!

I say sorta because what I am actually doing is making a baby wipe solution.
I have tried and tried and tried to make wipes, and either they mold of the paper towel falls apart, its to soapy.. tons and tons of trial and error!

I am happy with what I have been doing now for the past few months and found its easy enough I think everyone can do it.

You need:
Paper towel - I use bounty select a size
Old wipes container or even a plastic Ziploc container
a empty spray or pump bottle 
Baby wash + lotion or oil OR I use dove baby wash on my son so I use it for his wipes too

Using your container fill it 3/4 to just about full with warmer to hot water
transfer your water to a bowl and add 1 table spoon of baby wash and 1 tablespoon of oil or lotion.. or if you want to use the dove I put 2 tablespoons of this and nothing else

Whisk the water and bodywash together (dont just put them in the bottle and shake as it wont mix properly) one everythign is all mixed up, transfer it back to the bottle and your done!

Next time your little one needs to be changed a spay/pump or two  of solution on a folded paper toewl should do the trick!

I used to buy $18 in wipes a month, my cost now.. $5! Super savings. This would make nice gifts too. Put some in a spray bottle with a sticker on i, great baby shower gift!

If you want to use it in the diaper bag, I keep mine in a small travel sized old shampoo bottle, works really well ;)

Easy DIY Laundry Soap

 photo DIYLaundrysoap.jpg 

So I have been looking everywhere and trying everything to make my own laundry soap. I have 4 kids, plus myself and husband along with 2 dogs and a cat. SO we do a ton of laundry!

Anyways I've been searching for a "good" home made laundry soap to help cut the costs of our everyday living. I tried a few and found a lot just didn't have the cleaning power.

So After many attempts, all different measurements, and a lot of laundry later, I found the perfect ratio of ingredients!

Its super easy, and works great. You will most likely never buy laundry soap again!

What you will need

2 cups Borax
2 cups of Arm & Hammer WASHING Soada
1 bar of Ivory Soap (purex, sunlight, and others should work as long as its a soap bar not a beauty bar *moisturizer bar*)
Cheese grater for the soap
Downy Unstoppables or essential oils - Optional

put the 2 cups of each borax, and washing soda in a container. Grate up your bar of soap. I found using the small side works so much better then using the larger side of the grater. The small pieces incorporate much easier.

 photo IMG_0535.jpg

Now this can be it and you can be done there.  If that's the case you just made yourself 5.5 cups of laundry soap and only need to use 1 - 2 tablespoons at a time. 1 or smaller less soiled clothes, and 2 for larger or heavier soiled clothes.

 photo IMG_0536.jpg


Or if you want a more fragrant smelling laundry soap you can add down unstoppables (which I did) or you can try adding your favorite essential oil. Don't use anything but these 2 things. I tried many different things trust me, and everything BUT these ruin your batch. If you choose to use essential oils you still only need the 1 - 2 tablespoons , however if you use the downy unstoppables, I added 2 full  cap fulls so I use 3 tables spoons of laundry soap.

 photo IMG_0537.jpg
 
I hope you all love this as much as myself and my family do!
