Far too many times have I walked into my kitchen and had to play find the stink game. Usually the garbage disposal is the source of my smells but the garbage can is close second. I don’t know why we can just wash the dishes every night and rinse dishes before the food becomes encrusted […]
I cleaned my own carpets last week and my dear husband is ever so grateful I’m done. I felt like a 5th grade science experiment with 5’x5′ patches of wet carpet around the TV room figuring out which one worked the best. Between the […]
Having only one man in the house and a few girls, keeping the carpets from becoming thrashed wasn’t too hard, but I still needed regular carpet cleanings. I have cleaned my carpets with professionals and doing it myself at home with a machine. While I prefer to have my company […]
Happy Friday! I’m so excited it’s the weekend, all of the productiveness I’ve accomplished this week made me ready for some relaxation. I finally cleaned my oven again after the turkey juice leaking incident since I wanted to cook food without it smelling like I was burning […]

Sometimes I burn things. Like dinner, clothes and most recently a while ago my iron. I iron most everything on super hot since I own a lot of cotton. Well, I was ironing some of Husband’s things and forgot to check what it was made out of and slightly burned one of his “donotirononsuperhot” dress […]
