If you know me, you’re laughing…me, addicted to cleaning. Well, not exactly. When Aiden was about 3 months (can you believe he turns 1 on Thursday…I know, where does the time go???) I noticed that the dish soap didn’t seem to be washing out of his bottles. I would go to fill them and there would be suds in there. If I was making formula, it wasn’t a huge deal, but breast milk…seemed like a crime to throw it away, but I couldn’t really let the baby drink the sudsy milk. I started looking around for a soap that I wouldn’t be mortified at the thought of the baby ingesting a little. I’m a bit of a Target junkie, and had always admired those slick Method products, but never considered buying them. This seemed like a great solution though – if a little was left, it would be OK because at least there were no horrible chemicals.
I was blown away the first time I used it. I bought the French Lavender dish soap and could not believe how amazing everything smelled as I used it. Even better than that – it rinsed so easily we never had a problem with leftover soap on the bottles again. It was one of those things were I just kept wondering how I went without it my whole life… I loved the scent so much I went out the next day and bought the lavender multi-surface spray. I realized that I could now let Delia clean off the kitchen counters – she was always asking but I never wanted her inhaling all those nasty fumes as she sprayed, or getting the stuff on her hands when she was wiping. She was thrilled, I was thrilled and every time I cleaned it was like an aromatherapy experience for the whole house.
I was hooked and began replacing all of my cleaners with Method products. I also tried out some of the Mrs. Myers Clean Day things – which I liked, but I didn’t love them the same way I loved the Method. I found myself cleaning things I hadn’t cleaned in awhile, like the trash can, just so I could spray the yummy smelling French Lavender spray. I can’t stand how most cleaners smell, it makes me nauseous and that chemical smell always makes me uneasy. One of the best things about Method is that it is not that much more expensive then what I was using before. I spend about 50 cents more on the dish soap, which to me, is well worth the benefits.
My newest love – the Wood for Good floor cleaner. I’ve never been one to clean the floors a lot, but now that little Aiden is crawling everywhere, I wanted something that was quick and easy and non-toxic so that I could clean the floors a couple times a week. Most of our floors are wood, so I bought the Wood for Good cleaner and tried it last week. I was in HEAVEN. The sweet smell of almond wafted through the whole house as I cleaned the floors. You just squirt it right on and mop it up – it couldn’t be easier. I was just going to do the hallway to test it and ended up doing all the wood floors. Again – if you know me, you’re probably laughing – I’m never one to decide on a whim to clean my floors! 
So, go out and try just one of their cleaners -you’ll be hooked and it’s good for your family and the environment! As for me, well, aside from the products I mentioned, we also have the glass cleaner, toilet bowl cleaner, bathroom wipes, laundry detergent, fabric softener and a room air freshner. And, I’ve got about $65 worth of other things in my cart at methodhome.com that I found that my local target doesn’t carry…like the baby laundry detergent…hmmmmmm, method anonymous…I may have to join soon.
