Good morning world. I was productive yesterday in spite of how I was feeling. I want to share with you a couple of things I did. I forgot to take pictures. Going to have to get better with that.
First I was in the kitchen. After washing breakfast dishes, I made a mixture of oil and baking soda. I did not have any vegetable or mineral oil, so I used baby oil. Probably one part oil to two parts or possibly three parts baking soda.
I took stuff off the wall above the stove. You know the stuck on grease spatters that you have to scrub and scrub? I used this 2 ingredient combo and it came off like nothing else! I always dread cleaning that part of the wall! AND did not even attempt it during spring cleaning this year. Now it's really clean! I also used it to clean off the stuff I have hanging up there and it worked! So excited!
I also used it on the wood cabinet doors closest to the stove. Cleaned them too! And in no time!
Second, I decided to work on a couple of stains in my living room carpet. I cleaned them a few months ago, but with the traffic and probably coffee spills, they were back in full force. A friend told me recently about another 2 ingredient cleaning mixture: club soda and blue dawn dish soap.
I put both ingredients in a spray bottle, gently shook it. Took a couple of white towels and went to work. I sprayed it on the stains, Let it sit for a bit. Sprayed a little more on them and gently scrubbed. I know you are not suppose to scrub carpet. It was more like a severe blotting. A lot of the stains came up and some of them completely came up. I was at a point that I needed to make some more and was wanting to get something else done. I will work on it some more today.
Unfortunately, I did not get any baking done for two reasons. One, I was really upset about Jack and did not feel like baking. Two, by the time I felt like baking it was in the afternoon and a little warm in the kitchen. Still do not have the air conditioner on.
Be blessed and be a blessing,
Just some of my thoughts and actions,
Elizabeth
