I LOVE Mrs. Meyers products. Seventh Generation is probably my fave in general (although I love Method hand soaps) but Meyers has the best scents for cleaning products.

MessyMissy - thanks for the follow! I've never used Yardley before, but my mom loves their soap. So it MUST be good. :)

Janine - I've heard so much good about Mrs. Meyers and Seventh Generation products, but I've never tried anything from these lines. I'm going have to check out their products sometime. =)
