Update

First--if you are part of Cornerstone Church, you have until July 1 to submit up to three recipes for the Cornerstone Cookbook! Check the program or email me for the submission email address. I submitted Energy Bars, Stuffed Shells, and Black Bean Sweet Potato Burritoes.

Second--I have tried several of the recommended products from the last post.

Blood meal to repel rabbits--this sort of works. I found I needed to apply a lot of it, quite often, to each plant that the rabbits liked to eat. After a while we decided it was easier to fence in the vegetable garden and just give up on a couple perennial flowers that they love to eat.

Citrus infused vinegar--I love this and use it with Borax to clean my toilets most weeks. It smells much better than most cleaners, although I do use super strength toilet cleaner every month or so to get it really really clean. I did also make a spray bottle of Citrus Disinfectant and I enjoy using that to clean countertops. I must say, though, that Clorox Green Multipurpose Spray is still my favorite spray cleaner. I haven't decided if I'm going to shell out for a new bottle once mine is gone!

I'm still updating my goodreads--feel free to check it out for recommendations--or just visit me at the library to get some personal recommendations for you, your kids or your grandkids!
