Tonight I need to pack for my holiday travels – but first, I’ve got to do laundry so I have something to put in the suitcases. I’m going to try out these Laundry Dropps, packs of super-concentrated, biodegradable liquid detergent. I apparently just toss one into the washing machine and my clothes come out nice 'n' clean. The packs are mess-free (no dips or sticky hands) and it doesn’t hurt that the packaging cuts down on pastic waste. Find them at Target and Whole Foods and keep them in mind for when you’re washing mountains of towels and linens from holiday entertaining.

Have a wonderful Christmas – I’ll see you back here on Wednesday!
