I was out in the garden last weekend, and thankfully I remembered to use my own repellent- silly story from week before, I forgot and immediately was bitten by a tick. Side note that 2 days in the garden with repellent and not one creepy crawly- and my yard is famous for Lyme now. Anywho, I digress.... I came in after a long day of burying my hands in the sweet smelling soil to find that soap was NOT getting out the ground in dirt on my fingers or under my nails. It was not going anywhere. I was about to head to the kitchen for some coffee grounds (which has had only partial sucess in the past) when I spied my fluoride free toothpaste sitting there. Since the baking soda and peroxide do such a great job cleaning my teeth, I scooped some out and scrubbed my hands. "Scrubbed" is actually a harsh term, because it all came off so easily and my hands were so SOFT! Another AHA moment in the Bilotta household. I will now keep an extra jar with my garden tools :) Anyone else use it for other things?
