Posterity - Fels Naphtha Soap!

I thought I'd do a posterity blog this morning... 

WHY?  It is wisdom for the future...the passing on of knowledge to future generations.  Little things that made life easier for your grandmother, her best friend or mom that they learned through the course of their many years experiencing the daily "grind" of life.  Sure you can look up info on the internet or read books but these are my personal "hints of wisdom" or products that I would personally like to pass along to my friends and children....

Fels Naptha  soap.  Ah, I can see some of you smile when you read that name!!!  Memories flood of horrible, dirty stains that refuses to be removed...until attacked by that humble bar of soap!  Voila, a few good rubs on a damp shirt, a few scrubs and the stain is gone.  Fels Naptha is nothing short of a miracle soap.  It's a basic heavy duty bar of soap that one can use for day old blood stains, baby spit up stains, "ring around the collar" stains, grass stains, berry stains, juice stains and the list goes on and on.

My Original Fels-Naphtha Bar!

For you young'ums, this is called a washboard

I still have the original bar that I bought decades ago!!!  I bought it at QFC whenit was difficult to find.... but with the internet you can search  and  find "Dial Corporation 5.5Oz Fels-Naptha Bar 4303 Laundry Pretreaters" on Amazon for 50 cents!!!  OR call your local hardware store to purchase a bar for your "dirt patrol" arsenal as well as another bar to give away to a newly wed bride or a new mom! 

I'd love to hear about more posterity hints or products from you.  What have you learned through the school of life that you'd love to pass along to others.  You can either e-mail me or leave a comment.   Anne
