Pits

Cherry pits, that is. One of the gifts Holly gave me for Christmas is a cleaning product made by Shaklee. It's called Scour Off: Heavy Duty Paste. It's made from cherry pits, so it smells delish. I actually want to eat it (but you can't, so I won't). It's nontoxic, with no harsh chemicals, naturally abrasives, biodegradable surfactants, and has no phosphates. (that's from right off the container)

I'm not gonna lie--I am generally a Comet girl and love the way that it makes my tub, sinks and stove shine. So I used this pasty cleanser today on my kitchen sink, mostly just to satisfy my curiosity and guess what? I love it! It is equal in it's shine inducing quality; however, I scrubbed and scrubbed with no ventilation and didn't feel like my lungs were collapsing. Usually when I'm using Comet, I have to have a window open nearby because it really burns when I breathe it in. Obviously that's not good. This cleaner smelled and worked great. And instead of leaving green dust, it left a delicious smelling cherry scent in my kitchen sink. Thank you Holly, I love it! And when it's gone...where can I order more?

You are SO welcome! I'm glad you love it! Actually, it's pretty crazy to think about the toxic cleaning products we expose ourselves and our loved ones to in our homes. They are well... toxic! Shaklee is a great company- they have a whole line of environmentally friendly "green" cleaning products and nutritional supplements too. Just like I am a fake Mary Kay Consultant, I am also a fake Shaklee distributor, so when you run out I can order you more! It should last you a long time though... that little tub of paste goes a long way!
