I don’t know about where you are, but here in Wisconsin, we have had an unusually cold and dry-air winter. Now, yes, I do live in Wisconsin, so I am “used” to the cold, but this has been significant. So much so, that for myself and my kiddos, we have had our noses dry out …

When you look at the back of a box of dryer sheets, you might be surprised to see just how many chemicals lurk in those innocuous appearing sheets – particularly with some of those sneaky “catchall” words like “fragrance” or “scent” that mask hundreds of chemicals with one word.
