Citric acid

Apparently our dishwasher is all gummed up. It leave gunk on the insides of the classes and white streaks on everything. (Well it might have been those two big squirts of green stuff I put in the rinsing agent place only to discover two seconds later it was dish SOAP, not J.et dry. Anyway).

Cute Josh looked up the stuff online and it turns out our water is VERY hard (which we knew) and we should be using detergent with at least a 8.0% of posphros in it (FYI - C.ascase does NOT) to combat the hard water. So we got a cleaner (a jar of citric acid you leave in for a wash cycle) and some new soap and hope to be streak-free in 24 hours!

It is WINDY here today - but warm. I had to go out and round up the plastic toys outside several times today - even the ktichen blew over!
