MamaPinky....Tide Professional or Miele Care White?
Comments (38)@mamapinky, in your case, it's my opinion that appliances from that era weren't exactly BOL. I mean, you could purchase ANY dishwasher and get the exact same results. The same goes for ovens, and refrigerators. Things we're made, much much better then. Dishwashers actually used water. And, with Detergent's... formulated well, it didn't really make a difference what model you had. You'd still get a clean load of dishes. One of my favorite dishwashers, actually was a BOL GE Triton from a Disney Grand Floridian Resort Villa. I joke about that, because, they we're probably the cheapest, builder grade appliances they could find. But... every single load, would come out, completely immaculate. Even the tough stuff, like oatmeal stuck on bowls & stuck on egg, just rinsed completely away with the Phosphate Detergent packets they gave us. Like I said, older appliances, we're much better made. I don't think it really mattered what you bought ;)...See MoreMamaPinky...THANK YOU!!! Package arrived today!!!
Comments (24)I right away emailed Mitch, and sadly...NO response. Also, he has not responded to any of the replies in this thread. It was so awesome to hear from our GREATLY missed Mitch. Maybe he really does not want to talk or interact with any of us :( Mitch....come back. You are important to us! Mama's vintage Cascade powder. WOW!!!! I ran a load last night...crusted, baked on lasagna pan, plates, bowls, utensils, cups, mixing bowls, silverware....NO rinsing. NO prewash. NO extended wash. NO soak. NO turbo. Just Sensor wash (automatic) and some of this phosphate rich, sadly long gone Cascade powder....FLAWLESS everything! Alex....I wonder how adding STPP with my Cascade Complete powder will do, or with Finish powder. Cascade Complete does a pretty good job, actually a great job on most things....but it can struggle with stainless pots/pans and I find some hard, white residue powder on the inside, top of door seal each time I use it. Odd. Does not happen with Finish powder!...See MoreMamaPinkys Laundry Detergent Flea Market
Comments (36)I called my local community action program to check into Meals on Wheels for these folks..geesh they have to call themselves..guess I'll take a picnic to them at the flea market this weekend and just come out and tell them about this program and give them the #. I'm also taking a styrofoam cooler with ice and a few quarts of my soup to take home along with some ham slices, and a loaf of my banana bread. I'll also send a loaf of homemade bread that I'll pick up sat morning at the bakery. This is such a small amount that I wwon't even miss it but I'll know they are eating for a few days. I probably can't do this every week..but somehow I'll get them involved with the meals program ...than I will call it a day. One other thing they save aluminum cans that they haul into the scrap yard...I talked to the drunk across the street yesterday and he's going to save his beer cans so that approx 30 cans a day. Lol. Enough about this onto laundry....See MoreHAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY MamaPinky!!! XOxoXO
