My Likes and Dislikes of Products
So its Wed. I am not moving
fast at all so I am putting
a few post in the hopper
to post later for you folks
to read.
Not sure if you have Aldi's
in your part of the word but
I love that store. They normally
don't sale big brand name stuff.
So its a shot in the dark when
you buy things but its a trail
thing. I like some off brand stuff
but somethings just are not
as good.
I found out that this is
not as good as Cheerio's!

I bought a box to have just when
I wanted it. I don't eat a lot of cereal
since my surgery. Too sweet, too much
carbs and when you add milk that makes
it way to much sweet for my tummy.
But every so often I want it and I found
if I eat just a little with almond milk I
can handle it.
Anyway, moving on with my story...
NOT AS GOOD. So I had a whole
big box that I would not eat. But I
will tell you that the birds around
here LOVE it. Esp the cardinals.
I decided to fill the feeders with this.
I still feed them their regular food
but this is an awesome why to get
rid of this cereal.
Next in line to discuss~
Grandma's stain remover....
(pic from internet)
Over a year ago I picked up a small
squeeze bottle (like in the pic) at
Hobby Lobby in the material section.
Thought, why not, give it a try.
OH MY GOSH...I love this stuff.
I am bad at dropping food on my
shirt and leaving stains. I used this
on one of those stains, on a shirt
that had been washed and dried in
the drier. Thinking it was a shame
that I ruined a good shirt with
a stain I forgot to treat before
washing.....But I gave it a try.
The stain came out.
So off to Amazon to purchase
a big bottle and I got a big bottle
for my friend Theresa cause she
is worse then me about food on
her shirts. I have used it as I put
items in the washer but did not
have as much luck. This stuff needs
to set and work before washing.
So I will treat my spot and wash
later. I have even treated and did
not wash that item for a week...
and the stain is gone.
AMAZON folks.
Next on my list of talk abouts...
lint catchers for the washer.
They looked so good on a video
I saw. I however am not that
happy with them.

Animals leave a lot of hair around
so I thought this would work
for taking some out in the washer.
Yep, it caught some but not that
great. I have gotten where I don't
even use it anymore.

These two items together are amazing.
I made a mixture of this
to clean my shower doors.
Fantastic......
Mix Dawn, vinegar and water.
Scrub with a dish wand and
rise off. I do this after I shower
once a week.
BUT.....I also used the mixture
on my floors. You do not want
much Dawn in it but it helps with
the vinegar and water to clean my
floors.
(pic from the internet)
- 1/4 cup white vinegar
- 1 teaspoon liquid dish soap
- (blue Dawn is a miracle in a bottle
- -I wouldn’t use anything else!)
- 1/4 cup washing soda (this can be
- found in the laundry aisle of the grocery store)
- 2 gallons tap water, very warm water
- Place all the ingredients into a bucket
- and mix well until sudsy.
- Mop the area with the solution. Rinsing
- is not required, but wiping down with a towel
- afterwards gives a nice clean finish
You can also add a few drops
of essential oils for a nice
smell. Lemon or orange....
oh yeah!
Moving on....
DAWN is amazing stuff.
You know that use this to
take oil from ducks and
wildlife. Well a couple
months ago when Chey
got SKUNKED. I read this
was great for removing the
smell.
(pic from the internet)
YES IT WAS....
The De-Skunk Recipe is:
1 qt of hydrogen peroxide (the fresher the better)
2 tablespoons of Dawn dish soap
3. about ¼ cup of baking soda.
Those of you that don't
follow the furs blog will
not know about Chey
getting skunked or the
fact that I mixed this
up, threw her in the
shower and got in with
her to bath her...she was
not happy. Matter of fact
she will not go out after dark
now. Freaks her out.
One last item~
I love this soap.
I was paying seven
bucks a bar for homemade
oatmeal soap. Then one day
in Dollar Tree I spotted this.
The smell is great. The soap
is great and it last a long time.
They also have other scents
but this is my fave.
The Lavender is nice to take
a bath in before bed time.
These are the scents I have
not used.
However I think I would
love the cocoa butter and
the shea buttermilk.

Here is your thought for
the day....
