My Fav All Natural ... All Purpose Cleaner

I was cleaning the house earlier and ran out of all purpose cleaner. Since I needed to whip up a new batch I thought it was a good moment to share this recipe for a safe, effective, all purpose cleaning solution.
 
You only need 3 ingredients  Castile Soap ( I like the lavender scented), white vinegar, and water.  You will also need an  empty spray bottle.
 
 All Purpose Cleaner:
1/4 cup Castile Soap
3 cups water
1  cup vinegar
 
 
Add the 1/4 cup castile soap to the spray bottle, add water, and mix.
add 1/4 cup castile soap
 
NOTE it is important to add the water BEFORE adding the vinegar. If you add the vinegar first if will  react with the soap and cause the soap to curdle as in the below picture:
 
we don't want to add an acid directly to a base!
 
Add the 1 cup of vinegar to the soap/ water solution  and qs with water to fill the rest of your spray bottle.
add 1 cup white vinegar
That's it! A simple, all natural, & effective all natural cleaning solution for your home.
