Giant bubble liquid

== Ingredients ==
* ½ cup Joy or Dawn dish detergent
* 5 cups water, distilled is best
* 2 tbsp glycerine
== Directions ==
# Mix the dish detergent with the water (measure carefully, it makes a big difference).
# Stir.
# Add the glycerine (you can usually get this in a drug store), this makes more durable bubbles.
== Making bubbles ==
# You can bend a wire coat hanger into a circle and wind a string around it. Depending on how big you make your circle, you get great big bubbles.
# The string helps in getting the liquid to stay on the circle.
# You can also use straws and string-tie a 2½ foot length of string though two straws and unleash square bubbles.
# The trick is to dip your string and straw thing into the solution and wave it in the air.
# Break the bubble off by flipping the apparatus up a bit.
# Plain straws make good bubble pipes.
# Also try using the plastic strawberry baskets, they make lots of little bubbles.
# It is fun to experiment with all different bubble makers. Big-time bubble making is a bit like fishing. You'll have much better luck in cool wet weather. Early evenings, nighttime and early mornings are often good. Just after a rain is ideal.
# Don't throw any leftovers away, the longer it sits the better it becomes.
