Last week, I experienced sever itching, painful, throbbing blisters all around my toes and heels. The dermatologist said it was from an initial contact dermatitis caused by a chemical reaction. I have no idea where I came in contact with a chemical.
Is Kaboom Cleaner Non-Toxic?
I normally use non-toxic products to clean my home, I bought Kaboom shower cleaner over the weekend since I was completely out and didn't want to make a trip to Target to get Method shower cleaner (which I really like...) What is your take on Kaboom products? They say the cleaner will not release toxic fumes, but is the product itself non-toxic?
Homemade Alternative to Scotchguard
My husband and are are going to reupholster our dining room chairs, and since we have 2 kids under the age of 4, we'd like to pretreat the fabric to make it more stain repellent. I don't like the idea of a chemical fabric protector like Scotchguard, so I'm wondering about the alternatives since I won't be able to just take the covers off and wash them!
Are Neoprene Lunch Boxes Safe
There are some soft neoprene lunch boxes that lie flat (making them easy to store) for sale in our neighborhood and I'm not sure about wether they are "safe" or not to use for my children's school lunch. They are in bright colors and I'm not sure about the dyes used on them.

Silicone Baking Mats Vs. Parchment Paper
Cooking parchment also called parchment paper, kitchen parchment, greaseproof paper and cooking paper is a sheet of paper impregnated with silicone, which makes the paper grease- and moisture-resistant as well as relatively heat-resistant. It is commonly used to eliminate the need to grease baking pans--allowing, for example, repeated batches of cookies to be baked without regreasing the pans--and it can also be folded to make moisture-proof packages in which foods can cooked or steamed.
