Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Vinegar and rubbing alcohol do have a smell, but it dissipates pretty quickly,


Just wanted to mention that you can scent your vinegar with essential oils, if the vinegar smell is unpleasant for you. I love the book Clean House Clean Planet. She suggests scenting the baking soda as well. I use a TON of baking soda (I buy it in 12lb. bags ) and I really enjoy using it when it's scented.
The other thing I like about this particular book is that she tells you what commercial product her recipes replace, and she also is very frank about rating the effectiveness of the homemade cleaners.
