It looks quite different, yes?<br /><br /><b>Julia</b><br />I'm excited to be working on this with you too!!! :) Luv ya!<br /><br /><b>Shari</b><br />Oh, Shari!! Moving to a new place and into a new house is tough. It's GREAT, but tough. Soon, you'll find that everything will have their place...and so will you! xoxoox<br /><br /><b>Cherry</b><br />I tend to only use natural products too,but the "green" one I was using just didn't cut it. I loved that it was eco-friendly, but it just didn't clean anything :( I switched to another brand, and it was better, but this one is by far the best at removing gunk off of the dishes. I use the JetDry and for the detergent, Finish Quantum Powerball capsules.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09251507898309184477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22578035.post-44530255945595782062012-03-20T10:16:45.586-04:002012-03-20T10:16:45.586-04:00FabFrugalMama:

Hmmm...Maybe cleaning the bathroom. They all get done regularly, of course. I also hate mess.

Now I have more time to do other things. <br /><br /><b>merinz</b>:<br />That is so cool! I think it's interesting to see which products we have in common (in Canada and NZ) and which ones only found in Canada or only in NZ.

That might mean people might actually be expected to pitch in with the cleaning! LOL!<br /><br /><b>Deanna:</b><br />Same here! Our water is hard water too. This means everything (from sinks to toilet bowl and bathtub) need to be cleaned ALL the time to look like they're clean.

I haven't tried any other products and am really curious if it made a difference.<br /><br />So far, which of the Finish products did you find worked best for your dishwasher?<br /><br />If we didn't have to prewash, I think the hubs might actually put a dish into the dishwasher without it being this big chore he has to save up for a day or two (or a week- UGH).<br /><br />Thanks!Cherryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13329087078358950801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22578035.post-39613166839863487222012-03-15T09:37:57.926-04:002012-03-15T09:37:57.926-04:00That is a good man you have there.

I haven't fully felt at home and happy here yet, and everyone use to know where everything went at our old house. No one knows here but me, so instead of being helpful, no one helps me as much as before, and I am getting behind. So I think it is good to remind them every once in a while to help. Although there are probably a few better ways then the over dramatic crying, but that seems to be my go to method. I keep it in until I blow.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11291564865562951350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22578035.post-70959901829909213822012-03-14T09:38:44.226-04:002012-03-14T09:38:44.226-04:00Great post!

You're so gifted at making discussing dishwashing such a written treat. :p<br />I also use to find washing dishes therapeutic (well, still do sometimes) but I agree, it can get tiring and we need to be able to reduce the amount of time we do it - for our sanity and to allow us more time (cause God knows we need it!) <br />Great post - love the pics of your little one indulging in her pancakes! :)<br />Looking forward to working together!<br />#FinishRevolutionCarol Gomezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12020455442050975428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22578035.post-53255449092024726912012-03-13T09:11:18.282-04:002012-03-13T09:11:18.282-04:00I'm glad your hubby caved!

But before we go...Our dishwasher changed my life! <br /><br />But before we got ours our children would dry the dishes every night. <br /><br />The rule was they had to dry their age. ie the 9 year old dried 9 items, 6 year old dried 6 items etc Cutlery were worth 6 months so they had to dry twice as many. Pots - well we negotiated over their value.<br /><br />By the way - I use Finish here in new Zealand.merinzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01950053039147788819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22578035.post-46640680965138127172012-03-12T23:45:23.499-04:002012-03-12T23:45:23.499-04:00Haha C I get it now!
