Home-made Laundry Detergent

Up until we moved, we had to pay for the community washer and dryer. It cost us $3.50 a load! We wore jeans and shorts for a week until I could bring myself to spend that much money on wash. My habit of changing sheets weekly turned into changing sheets monthly. Yuck. With all that money spent on merely running the washer and dryer, I couldn't stand buying laundry detergent.

We are moved into our new apartment! We're in a swanky, brand-new place with a major bonus. A kitchen that isn't the size of a broom closet! I would be lying if I said that the kitchen wasn't my entire reason for moving here. Luckily, the rest of the apartment is great too. For one of our first meals in our new apartment (our first meal pizza, but I won't count that) I decided to make some burgers.
