May 17, 2012

I have never been one to use a fabric softener, but then again, I commit the laundry green sin of using my dryer because I am lazy and don’t like stiff crunchy clothes.  It’s not every load that I use the dryer for, but maybe if I used fabric softener, the air dried clothes would [...]
