The 21 Germiest Places You"re Not Cleaning


“That’s disgusting,” we remark when we witness people exiting a public restroom without washing their hands. It’s something that we would never do since being taught as children to wash our hands with soap and water. Despite this good sense, we overlook plenty of potential areas of our home when it comes to disinfecting and preventing germs.


While it’s easy to say, “That my house is germ free.” That’s not the case for anyone. For example, think about the location of your toothbrush. More than likely it’s on the bathroom counter drying only a few feet from your commode, which spews bacteria into the air with every flush. Certainly, a tasteless thought, but not the only source of germs.

Remove Water Marks On Wood Furniture With A Hair Dryer


I love life hacks. For a homemaker, there’s always a new mess to clean up, and I’m not only speaking of the dis-function of the psyche that occurs after the twelfth time your toddler spills his juice while climbing the back of the couch or the teenager forgets – again – that your eighties throw-back compact discs are not acceptable coasters.


I’m talking about things like water marks on wood. They are legion. After using them in a home-school lesson on radius, circumference and the proper use of the markings on a protractor, I tried this life hack.


First, the required equipment quit after ten minutes of water mark removal. This is what happens when you buy substandard beauty equipment. However, this did provide an excuse for buying a higher end model. The moral of that story is, when looking for quality multipurpose bathroom gear, stay out of the dollar stores.


New and most necessary gear in hand, I turned back to water mark removal.


The results changed my world.


I am now off to buy math paper. The kids need a place to make new circles now that they’ve figured out the protractor and I’ve found a new life hack.

You then take a dish cloth, scrub pad, or similar device, and clean it. scrub all the leftover food away, and then rinse well with clean water. once that is finished, you dry it, and that is it! After all of these steps, you will be ready to use your slow cooker again.

Crochet Pattern: Vintage Daisy Motif


While cleaning out my linen cabinet I found an ancient afghan made for me by an elderly friend. Holding that blanket brought me back to when she tried teaching me to crochet. I became really good at chain making. That’s it, just chains. The house was littered with yards of yarn in single crochet chains. Every time I’d try to combine them into pretty flowers or useful blankets, or really anything, it would merely become a yarn ball destined for my cat. The nostalgia that blanket evoked naturally drove me to the internet to search out how to rekindle my less-than-stellar crochet skills, and what do I find? Daisies made of crochet chain! This just might work…
