Yoga mat cleaner sprays are one of those little things that absolutely delight me. They are small, they are cute, they usually smell really nice, and they remind you of all the use your yoga mat is getting. Not to mention keeping your mat clean and stink-free!
The Definitive Guide to Natural Laundry Detergents
This blog post was inspired by my readers – over the past couple of months it has been hands down the most frequently asked laundry question: people want to know which natural laundry detergents work best and how to choose the one that will best fit their needs.
My New Bosch 800 Series Dishwasher
I just recently posted about Ecover dishwasher tabs and mentioned our cheap old Maytag dishwasher. Well… it had a good life, but recently started acting up and we chose to replace it with a brand new Bosch 800 Series dishwasher. I never really loved the Maytag, but with all the negative reviews you find online it was a little terrifying to pick out a replacement. Nonetheless I decided to go with the Bosch since as you might know I tend to prefer European appliances, and here are my first impressions.
How to Clean a Condenser Dryer: Step by Step Tutorial
My laundry blog posts have been mostly devoted to detergents recently, so I thought I’d change things up a little and put together this step by step tutorial on how to clean a condenser dryer. If you’ve read my Miele W3038 review

. Unlike the more common in the US type of vented dryer condensers do not blow the air outside and do not require any kind of special connection other than a 220V electric plug. They also require a different kind of maintenance, which I’m going to illustrate in this tutorial.
Persil ProClean Detergent Now Available in Canada!
Just a couple of weeks ago one of my Canadian readers sent me a note to let me know that they had gone searching for Persil only to find that it wasn’t available in Canada.

How to Remove a Black Shoe Polish Stain
Last week my husband came home from work and announced that he had a black shoe polish stain on the cuff of his white Brooks Brothers dress shirt. Apparently he had decided to clean up his shoes before an important meeting, but things didn’t quite go as planned. My reaction? Yay, a laundry challenge! Something tells me this is not the way normal people react to such things, but I’m sure you, my blog readers, will understand.
