In a pinch, make your own dishwasher soap

I try to wait until I have a full load to run the dishwasher.  That usually happens every few days.  But I frequently fail to coordinate that with having enough dishwasher soap on hand.  So then I have to go out and get some, which can be annoying.  I could stock up, but that would be too simple. :-0

So I found a recipe online one day when I ran out and discovered that you can use Arm & Hammer Washing Soda, which I also use in making homemade laundry detergent, baking soda (for the grease) and lemon juice (to clean the spots off of glass) to make a very good dishwasher soap.  It works too!
