Here it goes...

I'd like to thank my friends - especially Chasing Mermaids - for encouraging me in this blogging endeavor.  My goal is to share what I'm discovering about health and other topics and learn new things from others.  That means I hope you will comment on what you know and teach me. Yes, I'm talking to you!  Everyday I think of a new topic I could blog about and I'm hoping to make that happen.

What motivated me to finally decide on a blog name and register yesterday was the latest email from Environmental Working Group.  Their 2012 Guide to Healthy Cleaning is a fabulous database rating over 2000 cleaning products.  Of course my first reaction when I found this was to click on Dishwashing and see what was rated A and F.  I recently started making my own dishwashing detergent (more on that later) but I have used Seventh Generation, rated A, and Cascade powder, rated F.  And it lists the product ingredients along with the health concerns.  The thought of washing dishes in DNA damaging, cancer causing chemicals makes me cringe.  I hope you will look at your product ratings and consider making healthier substitutions for your family.
