<p>Everytime I read it, I giggle just a little,</p>
<p><em>"Thanks for using Eco Nuts- you'd be nuts to use anything else!"</em></p>
<p>Truth be told, I'm nutty in so many other ways that perhaps the fact that I'm now using dried fruit shells (aka soap nuts) to clean my clothes shouldn't surprise me or anyone else!</p>
<h4>Why would you want to choose <a href="http://thebabybumstore.com/Eco-Nuts-Organic-Laundry-Soap-P883676.aspx">Eco Nuts soap nuts</a> to clean your clothes?</h4>
<ul>
<li>They are completely sustainable, renewable, biodegradable and an organic alternative to chemical detergents and more expensive natural laundry detergents</li>
<li>They are gentle and chemical or allergen free. No concerns for sensitive baby skin, or those with eczema or other skin conditions.</li>
<li>They are mild and don't leave residue, so they are suitable for washing cloth diapers.</li>
<li>They have antimicrobial properties, which makes them a great choice for those with septic or grey water systems.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Wondering how soap nuts actually work?</strong> They contain saponin, which is a natural cleaner that breaks the surface tension of the water to penetrate the fibers of your clothing- a fancy way to say that they are able to life stains and leave the dirt in the water to be washed away. They don't foam up, because they don't contain foaming agents. This was disconcerting to me at first, but I decided to get over it and see whether they worked anyways!</p>
<p>I received my trial of soap nuts from <a href="http://thebabybumstore.com/Default.aspx">The Baby Bum Store</a>, who recently began carrying Eco Nuts for all their cloth diapering customers in particular. <strong>I tried them out this past week and they've actually been worked pretty hard in a short amount of time. </strong></p>
<p>I've used them in both cold and hot, regular loads, heavy blankets, and cloth diapers, all successfully. The real test happened today, with an incredibly yucky load of diapers which contained some toddler explosions. I double rinsed before I washed (even though I usually rinse only once), but was shocked and pleased to see that the diapers came out fresh smelling and clean, even though this was already the 5th wash my soap nuts had been through (and they are generally able to be reused for 5-7 washes).</p>
<p><strong>Final score?</strong> Indescribably poopy diapers 0, Eco Nuts 1.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<p><strong><a rel="attachment wp-att-3731" href="http://www.keeperofthehome.org/2010/03/review-and-giveaway-eco-nuts-organic-laundry-soap.html/soap-nuts-2"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-3731" title="soap nuts" src="http://www.keeperofthehome.org/wp/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/soap-nuts1.jpg" alt="soap nuts" width="279" height="203" /></a>Will soap nuts begin to replace my trusty natural detergents?</strong> The jury is still out on that one. I love how small and light they are to carry and store, and the fact that they're entirely sustainable and that I can toss them in my compost. I was impressed with their cleaning ability, despite the lack of bubbles and pretty smells. You just might win me over, little soap nuts.</p>
<p>Would you like to give <a href="http://thebabybumstore.com/Eco-Nuts-Organic-Laundry-Soap-P883676.aspx">Eco Nuts Organic Laundry Soap</a> a try?</p>

Want to try some? Keep on reading...**" width="400" height="267" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Delicious Choice Organic Teas. Want to try some? Keep on reading...</p></div>
<p>Since returning from <a href="http://blissdomconference.com/">Blissdom</a>, my head continues to absolutely swirl with thoughts and ideas. A couple of really good things that came out of the conference for me were a truly renewed desire to be a better blogger who serves the loyal and incredible community that exists here at Keeper of the Home. The second is the recognition that to do that, while continuing <a href="http://www.keeperofthehome.org/2009/12/pro-mom-not-pro-blogger.html">to keep my family my absolute #1 priority</a>, is that I need some help to do it.</p>
<p>I am currently looking for contributing writers for Keeper of the Home. I will be cutting my own posting schedule down to 4 days a week, and have decided to open my blog up for some amazing ladies to contribute on a wide variety of topics that this blog usually touches on. Not only will this allow me to continue to run my site well and focus my available time on what I love doing, but it will add some other valuable perspectives, experiences and knowledge to the writing that I already do myself.</p>
<p>What's in it for you? Writing for another site is an excellent way to expose yourself to a new audience, increase your traffic and develop stronger working relationships with other bloggers!</p>
<h2>So what am I looking for in a contributing writer?</h2>
<p>The commitment can range anywhere from once a month, up to once every 3 months. I will also take contributions from one-time only guest posters. Topics I'm most interested in include:</p>
<ul>
<li>Real/Traditional/Nourishing foods (nutrition topics, as well as recipes)</li>
<li>Kitchen tips and techniques (related to real food)</li>
<li>Simplicity and sustainable living topics</li>
<li>Frugality (mostly as it relates to real food and simple/sustainable living)</li>
<li>Home remedies, herbs, homeopathics</li>
<li>Gardening and raising your own food (ie. backyard chickens)</li>
<li>Infant and child care (with a focus on natural mothering and products)</li>
<li>Homemaking and home management (from a more natural perspective)</li>
<li>Good stewardship/Natural living from a Christian perspective</li>
<li>Food preserving (canning, dehydrating, root cellars)</li>
</ul>
<p>If you have topics in mind that don't quite fit in, just ask me and I'll let you know what I think. I am in the process of creating an editorial calendar which will include a couple of specific topics for each month over the course of the next year, so I will slot in writers/topics according to my calendar and this will give writers some direction in knowing what to write about as well.</p>
<p><strong>Please email me at stephanie (at) keeperofthehome (dot) org if you're interested.</strong> I will send you a short document with guidelines for contributing writers over the next several days. Nothing fancy or extensive, just explaining the way it works and what I'm looking for. I think you'll find that I'm easy going to work with, and I would love to have you join the team at Keeper of the Home!</p>
<h2>And a survey...</h2>
<p>As well, I have <strong>a short readers survey that I would LOVE to have you fill out</strong>. It will take no more than 2 minutes of your time, I promise. It's a way for me to know what you like and want to see more of at Keeper of the Home in the coming months, as I set some goals and make plans for topics, reviews and giveaways, etc. It's easy to just write about what I'm interested in, but I also want to make sure that I'm listening to what you want to read about!</p>
<p><strong>As a thank you for filling out the survey, I will enter your name in a draw that will happen in 48 hours, for a package of luscious, organic, loose leaf-filled, pyramid bags of herbal tea!</strong> <a href="http://www.choiceorganicteas.com/">Choice Organic Teas</a> generously allowed me to bring a huge bag of tea samples to Blissdom, and I have some extras that I would like to bless someone with! I have tried both flavors multiple times, and they are simply wonderful. I can't decide which is my favorite: Chamomile Citrus (a perky and intriguing version of soothing and relaxing chamomile) or Sweet Licorice Mint (not usually a licorice fan myself, but yet this mostly-minty flavored tea is so refreshing and delightful!). You'll get to try both!</p>
<h2><a title="Take the survey now!" href="http://resoundschoolextraswufooaccount.wufoo.com/forms/r7x3p9/">Take the survey now!</a></h2>
<p><em>To be entered for the draw, make sure that you leave me a comment letting me know that you've completed a survey (this allows me to keep the survey confidential). </em></p>
<p><strong>And for an extra entry to earn some yummy tea, would you consider taking my husband's 15-second survey (his words, not mine- he made it to be super short and sweet)? </strong></p>
<h2><a title="The " href="http://resoundschoolextraswufooaccount.wufoo.com/forms/q7x3k1/">Take my hubby's 15-second survey!</a></h2>
<p><em>If you just took the 2nd survey, for Resound School, make sure you leave me another comment letting me know that you did so! Ryan thanks you and so do I (because don't we all want to help make our husband's successful?). </em><strong></strong></p>
<p><strong>Thanks for taking the surveys! You can still take them if you like, although the tea giveaway has now ended.<br />

<p>Believe me, if you're looking for someone's routines and schedules to emulate, mine probably aren't the right ones! Organizing is something I strive for, but not necessarily something I always achieve. And please always remember that when I share things like this, this is just me. Just my family, our season of life, our preferences, etc. It shouldn't tell you the "right" way to organize your own home or time, because there is no right way. Just seek the Lord and do your best to figure out how you can serve your family best!</p>
<h2>Now it's your turn!</h2>
<p>I promised a while back that I would be giving you access to a few of the meal planning pages from ListPlanIt, so here they are!</p>

<p>Each of these pages is included in a <a href="http://www.listplanit.com">ListPlanIt</a> membership, but this is just a little sampling to give you a taste of how helpful they are! Just look for the "Print" option near the top of each page to print off as many of your own as you would like. Thanks, Jennifer, for making these available!</p>
<h2>And another ListPlanIt giveaway...</h2>
<h3>This time it's a <a href="http://listplanit.com/eplanners/">Meal ePlanner</a>. Actually, 2 Meal ePlanners, to be more precise!</h3>
<p>What exactly is a Meal ePlanner you ask? It's sort of like having a <a href="http://www.listplanit.com">ListPlanIt </a>membership, but with a focus on just one area... meals planning and kitchen organization. It functions similarly to an eBook, in that you download it and can print off any or all parts of it as you wish.</p>
<p>It includes a brief intro to how to you it and some of the particular pages within. Then it gives you 17 different pages to assist you in making your meal planning come together easier. Lists like the 21 meals shown above, both monthly and weekly meal planners, grocery shopping lists, meal inventories, recipe card pages, and even a measurement equivalents page (no more running to the computer to pull up a measurement conversion website!).</p>
<p>Though I really prefer having the full membership to be able to access all of the lists available, having an ePlanner gives you a taste of what there is and enough specific lists to help you get organized in a particular area, without the cost of the year long membership, since ePlanners cost a mere $4.95. They're available for each category included in a ListPlanIt membership, allowing you to just purchase a few that interest you most (although if you're going to buy several, you might want to consider just purchasing a membership to give yourself full access to everything).</p>
<h3>Who wants to win a Meal ePlanner?</h3>
<p>(As always, please leave a <em><strong>separate</strong></em> comment for each entry, please!)</p>
<ol>
<li>Leave a comment telling me why you need this Meal ePlanner!</li>
<li>Take a look through the other <a href="http://listplanit.com/eplanners/">ePlanners</a> available and tell me (other than the Meal one) which would be your first pick</li>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>"I am not a perfect mother. Often I struggle with impatience; sometimes I lack the enthusiasm I long for. I make many mistakes, just like my children. As they are maturing as children, I am maturing as a mother... We need to equip ourselves with practical tools that allow us to give our personal best to our young children, helping us thrive in our strengths and overcome our weaknesses. We aim for professionalism in every other area of our lives; why should our children get anything less?"</em></p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-2625" href="http://www.keeperofthehome.org/2010/01/steady-days-book-review-and-giveaway.html/infused_cover_color_sml"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-2625" title="Infused_Cover_Color_sml" src="http://www.keeperofthehome.org/wp/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/Infused_Cover_Color_sml.jpg" alt="Infused_Cover_Color_sml" width="103" height="160" /></a>This month I had the extreme pleasure of reviewing the book <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0984124608?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=keeofthehom-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=0984124608">Steady Days: A Journey Toward Intentional, Professional Motherhood</a><img style="border:none !important; margin:0px !important;" src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=keeofthehom-20&amp;l=as2&amp;o=1&amp;a=0984124608" border="0" alt="" width="1" height="1" />, by Jamie C. Martin. The quote above is from the beginning of the book, setting the stage for an exploration of what it takes to be a professional mother.</p>
<p>There is one message that rings out strong and clear throughout the entirety of Steady Days and it is this... mothering requires intentionality. To maintain peace and order, we must be purposeful about how we achieve that. To maintain our enthusiasm, we must plan activities and encouragement into our days that inspire us. To capture memories and special moments with our children, we must have a plan for what we will do and how we will remember what we've enjoyed and experienced.</p>
<p>Over and over again, this one thought. To be successful in achieving my goals as a mother, I must be intentional. Purposeful. Prepared. Well-planned. Goal-oriented.</p>
<p>Let's face it. It can be easy to go on auto-pilot as a mom. Sometimes our days are so full and overwhelming that we just go with the flow, without being intentional about how we are spending these precious years with our children.</p>
<p>As a home educating mother, I make more of an effort to be intentional about how I educate my children, what learning resources I expose them to, how many books we read, etc.  And yet, throughout the rest of my day I can sometimes get so focused on other aspects of my roles as mother, wife, homemaker and more that I cease to be purposeful about all the other realms of my mothering.</p>
<p>If you can relate to what I'm saying, I think that you would be blessed by Steady Days. Jamie is encouraging and upbeat, and yet consistently challenging us to consider how we are doing things, what our motivations are, what could be changed, how we could grow as mothers.</p>
<div id="attachment_2626" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 457px"><a rel="attachment wp-att-2626" href="http://www.keeperofthehome.org/2010/01/steady-days-book-review-and-giveaway.html/jamie-reading-to-her-kids"><img class="size-full wp-image-2626 " title="jamie reading to her kids" src="http://www.keeperofthehome.org/wp/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/jamie-reading-to-her-kids.jpg" alt="Jamie reading to her 3 sweet children" width="447" height="298" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Jamie reading to her 3 sweet children</p></div>
<p><strong>A few other practical things I loved:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Short, simple chapters. If bite-sized is what you need to make it through a book and really implement its strategies, then you will just love how Jamie has organized Steady Days into 40 short chapters.</li>
<li>Steady Days Planner. This is Jamie's version of a <a href="http://www.keeperofthehome.org/2010/01/creating-a-homemaking-binder.html">homemaking binder</a>, and she has so many wonderful suggestions for adding to it. A few that I was particularly inspired by were a Steady Blessings page (for recording our blessings, special moments, thoughts of gratefulness), Special Date Organizer, Shopping Lists, and Children's Goals. Many of the particular pages she discusses and shows throughout the book can actually be found on her website, at <a href="http://www.steadydays.com/resources.html">http://www.steadydays.com/resources.html</a>.</li>
<li>Room Time. A clever technique for achieving a bit of quiet time for Mom to get some things done, while each child plays/reads productively in their own space (no more sibling squabbles, at least for 20-30 minutes!). Love it!</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Final thoughts:</strong> I really enjoyed this book and I know that I will reference it again and again. I love Jamie's encouragement to just implement new things or small changes bit by bit. For moms who are feeling overwhelmed and in need of someone to help you get more organized and intentional in your mothering, <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0984124608?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=keeofthehom-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=0984124608">Steady Days</a><img style="border:none !important; margin:0px !important;" src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=keeofthehom-20&amp;l=as2&amp;o=1&amp;a=0984124608" border="0" alt="" width="1" height="1" /> is for you!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>At long last, the winner of the beautiful <a href="http://www.keeperofthehome.org/2009/12/hope-ink-art-review-and-giveaway.html">scripture art print giveaway</a> from HopeInk. (Sorry y'all had to wait while I took a week vacation!)</p>
<p>The winner is:  <a href="http://www.impatientlyprayingforpatience.blogspot.com/">Katie</a>!</p>
<p>Though the giveaway was actually for a <a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=37097244">Love Defined 12x12 print</a>, Katie will actually be receiving the <a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=36546131">joy.pray.thanks. print</a> instead because of this comment that was left in her winning entry. It seemed only fitting that she should have that one as a very special remembrance of her dad.</p>
<blockquote><p><em>"I would absolutely be thrilled to get the joy pray thanks one. My dad very unexpectedly passed away a little over a week ago and he would always quote me that verse. It would be such a blessing to win that."</em></p></blockquote>
<p>Congrats, Katie!</p>
<p>Thanks again to Emily of <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/hopeink">HopeInk</a> for sponsoring this giveaway! <em><br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I loved the quote that <a href="http://www.keeperofthehome.org/2009/12/celebrate-with-joy-week-3.html">my friend Sondra shared yesterday</a>, "put something where you can see it so your eye will remind your heart". One of my next goals in decorating our home is to add more scripture. I want to have the Words of life all over our home, where we will constantly be reminded of God's eternal truths and brought back to what is most important... living a life that honors and glorifies Him!</p>
<p>When Emily of <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/hopeink">Hope Ink Art</a> asked if I would do a review and giveaway of one of her scripture art prints, I couldn't have been more delighted! Not only is her work eye-catching, unique and beautifully done, but it boldly proclaims the very HOPE that we have in Christ. What better way could we possibly add to our home decor?</p>
<p>Here are a few of my favorites from her Etsy shop, Hope Ink Art, to give you a little glimpse of the work that Emily does:</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-2274" href="http://www.keeperofthehome.org/2009/12/hope-ink-art-review-and-giveaway.html/psalm-one-tree-green-hope-ink"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2274" title="psalm one tree green hope ink" src="http://www.keeperofthehome.org/wp/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/psalm-one-tree-green-hope-ink.jpg" alt="psalm one tree green hope ink" width="430" height="573" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=36581351">Delight. Psalm One. </a>(This is a cafe mount, which comes ready to hang on a 3/4 inch professional backing, no need to frame)</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-2275" href="http://www.keeperofthehome.org/2009/12/hope-ink-art-review-and-giveaway.html/hope-peace-joy-hope-ink"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2275" title="hope peace joy hope ink" src="http://www.keeperofthehome.org/wp/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/hope-peace-joy-hope-ink.jpg" alt="hope peace joy hope ink" width="430" height="430" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=37021763">Hope.</a></p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-2276" href="http://www.keeperofthehome.org/2009/12/hope-ink-art-review-and-giveaway.html/word-of-our-god-hope-ink"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2276" title="word of our god hope ink" src="http://www.keeperofthehome.org/wp/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/word-of-our-god-hope-ink.jpg" alt="word of our god hope ink" width="430" height="645" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=27707090">Forever. </a></p>
<p>And here is the striking <a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=36281072">"Love Defined" print of 1 Corinthians 13 </a>that I received, personalized in my colors of choice and with mine and my husband's name on it. This is the print that is going to be given away!</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-2291" href="http://www.keeperofthehome.org/2009/12/hope-ink-art-review-and-giveaway.html/love-defined"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2291" title="love-defined" src="http://www.keeperofthehome.org/wp/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/love-defined.jpg" alt="love-defined" width="420" height="280" /></a></p>
<p><em>(The grainy look at the bottom attests to my poor photography skills. The print is finished with a wonderful looking sheen to it, and I just can't seem to capture it well enough with my camera. In real life, it looks just beautiful and very classy.)</em></p>
<h2>Would you like to win your own personalized (colors, names) 12 x12 "Love Defined" print from Hope Ink (a $40 value)?</h2>
<p><em>(Yes, of course you would!)</em></p>
<p><em><strong>**Please remember that as always, you must leave each entry as a SEPARATE comment for them to be included. Thank you so much for making my life just a teeny bit easier! <img src='http://www.keeperofthehome.org/wp/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> **</strong></em></p>
<p>Here's how to get entered:</p>
<p>1) Visit <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/hopeink">Hope Ink </a>and take a look around. The print that's being given away is the personalized 12x12 "Love Defined", but please still take a moment to browse around then come back here and leave a comment telling me your favorite product (and believe me, I know it's hard to choose!)</p>
<p>2) Tweet or Facebook the giveaway, or both for 2 entries (gosh, has "Facebook" now become a verb? Just as long as it never makes it into Webster's Dictionary)</p>
<p>3) Follow me on Twitter (<a href="http://twitter.com/keeperhome">@keeperhome</a>)</p>
<p>4) Follow Emily of Hope Ink on Twitter (<a href="http://twitter.com/hopeink">@hopeink</a>)</p>
<p>5) Post about this giveaway on your blog and leave a comment with the post url</p>
<p>6) Become a <a href="http://www.keeperofthehome.org/forum/">Keeper of the Home community Forum member</a> or start a new topic</p>

<p><a href="http://www.covenanthomemaking.com/">Mary Jo</a>! (mrsmurch@)</p>
<p>She will be receiving a 1-year Download Membership to <a href="http://listplanit.com/">ListPlanIt</a>, a fantastic organizational site (see <a href="http://www.keeperofthehome.org/2009/12/get-more-organized-this-holiday-season-listplanit-review-and-giveaway.html">my review</a>)!</p>
<p>For those who didn't win but could really use the organizing help, now is the perfect time to <a href="http://listplanit.com/">get your own membership</a>. In January, I will be using my membership to help me do some serious organizing around my own home, as I work on my homemaking binder and some other projects, and I will be blogging about it. You could join me in the fun (okay, so <em>fun</em> might be stretching it a little, but it will definitely be useful and practical! <img src='http://www.keeperofthehome.org/wp/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> )</p>
