Modern Mom

Last night I was thinking about what products jump out at me at the grocery store. I thought about all the hair care products and shiny bags in the chips aisle. I thought about all the laundry detergents in their brightly colored bottles. But I found myself uncommitted to any one brand. I only buy what's on sale or what I have a coupon for.

Then it dawned on me that there was something that I have been buying for years and cost never mattered. I love Method hand soap! I love it because it doesn't come in a bright colored bottle or have pictures of flowers crammed down inside it. I love the clear soap in the clear bottle. It disappears on my bathroom sink. Sure, I have kids that would probably love to see a giant Spiderman or Hello Kitty label wrapped around the soap bottle, but my bathroom is one room that I can still call my own.

At first I thought I might be the only person who felt this way but as I visited my friends and their families I saw they used Method hand soap as well. They too must appreciate the simple product graphics (or lack thereof), and the clean, modern feel.

When it comes down to something that’s going to be on display at my house, I'd like it to be visually pleasing.
