The Holiday Dilemma

We've all been there, we've all experienced it. What is it exactly? The Holiday Dilemma of course! Everything is closed, and unfortunately, sometimes you may find you didn't exactly pick up everything you needed the night or week before.

Well thats where I am as I write this. Its Easter and I'm experiencing the Holiday Dilemma. Our family got all of our last minute shopping done yesterday. We got the food, the spices, the treats and necessities needed for our big Easter dinner.

Sounds like we got everything we needed, right? Well.. While finishing up the dishes last night we quickly realized the dish soap was on its last run and the stores were closed.

I'm in the process of finishing a big batch of perogies, Taco Soup, and and fudge brownies ( I'll post recipes later) and there will be a need for soap if I want to have a clean kitchen before the guests arrive. Needless to say, I have been scrambling to find recipes, tips, solutions or anything to help with my situation.


While looking online I found a few solutions that I am eager to try.


  • Baking Soda + vinegar
  • Laundry Soap
  • Hot Water ( Scalding)
  • Good Scrubbing

It is possible to not use soap at all, however that would require a lot of hot water and soaking - not to mention, for me... I won't be satisfied without soaping my dishes and scrubbing them clean. 

Wish me luck !





Happy Easter
