Cleaning Dirty Ovens Made Easier With Vinegar and Baking Soda

Cleaning Dirty Ovens Made Easier With Vinegar and Baking Soda
Wow, I was really amazed that the hardened spills and oil spatters in the oven were so easy to remove – I merely wiped the oven interior and door with a rough kitchen towel wet with this solution , and no hard scrubbing was required at all.

Now my oven looks very gleaming and shiny, both inside and outside! I am so happy with this new “cleaning solution” and I must thank my sister Terese for informing me about the wonderful effects of using vinegar for cleaning. I had combined it with baking soda to make the cleaning more effective. Here is my “recipe” for this amazing cleaning solution for my oven –

3 cups water
1/2 cup white vinegar
1/2 cup baking soda
1) Dilute the vinegar with water first, and mix well.
2) Add in the baking soda.
Warning! Do not mix undiluted vinegar with baking soda – it may cause an explosion!

Apply this mixture on the inside and outside of the oven with a sponge or a few pieces of paper kitchen towels. Leave for a few minutes and then just wipe off with a clean, wet cloth. For those stubborn stains, just scrub a little harder.

Rinse cloth in clean water and wipe oven again., until the oven is clean

Voila! Your oven now looks as good as new!




maak al jou koekies ewe groot en rond

koekies ewe groot

Ek gebruik we’ll die spanspek lepeltjie. Jy sit d lepeltjie in meel,dan maak jy d vol. Dan skraap jy dit af teen die rand van die bak.(Gelyk met die lepel. Ek vat sommer die tafel dan kap ek dit uit in my hand. Ek gebruik enige resep wat jy bolletjies moet maak van. Wat ek we’ll doen,as die deeg te slap is,sit ek d in die yskas om bietjie meer ferm te word. Selfs oats en klapperkoekies.

Quick Tip: Freeze Fresh Herbs

fresh herbs

Personally, I still prefer fresh herbs over its bottled equivalent. But having fresh herbs at hand can sometimes be difficult. One way of preserving fresh herbs and saving them for later, is by freezing them. Yes, you read that right: you can easily freeze herbs. And the best way to preserve them is by freezing your herbs in oil!

Now why would you use oil? Because preserving herbs in oil reduces some of the browning and freezer burn that herbs can get in the freezer.

Another convenience is that they are easy to use. Simply start your dish with a cube of frozen herb oil and get cooking. The herb-infused oil has a great taste of herbs that will spread throughout your entire dish.

This preservation method works best with tougher herbs such as rosemary, sage, thyme, and oregano. These herbs would probably be cooked when added to a dish anyway.

BTW: I found 8 tips for preserving fresh herbs in oil

  1. Choose firm, fresh herbs (preferably from the market or your own garden).
  2. If you wish, you can chop them fine. Or leave them in larger sprigs and leaves.
  3. Pack the wells of ice cube trays about 2/3 full of herbs.
  4. You can mix up the herbs; think about freezing a bouquet garni of sage, thyme, and rosemary to add to winter roast chickens and potatoes!
  5. Pour extra-virgin olive oil or melted, unsalted butter over the herbs.
  6. Cover lightly with plastic wrap and freeze overnight.
  7. Remove the frozen cubes and store in freezer containers or small bags.
  8. Don’t forget to label each container or bag with the type of herb (and oil) inside!

Wenke om van MIERE ontslae te raak

2013-10-29-ants

This is a LOW COST method to get rid of ANTS once and for all.
Instructions:
~One Cup Sugar
~THREE Tablespoons Boric Acid or Borax Laundry Soap
~THREE Cups of Warm Water

Mix the Sugar and Boric Acid together and slowly add the warm water, stirring all the time so the mixture will not get lumpy. Store is in a sealed jar and whenever you see ants simply take a used soda bottle or milk jug lid. Put a cotton ball in the lid and saturate the cotton ball with your sugar and boric acid mixture. It will not take much, just enough to fill the lid, if you spill any over the edge leave it, this will only attract the ants even more.

When you see the ants drinking the mixture, DO NOT kill them, let them drink and take the mixture back to the colony. This should kill the entire colony. In a day or two the entire colony should be gone. If you have small children or pets make certain they cannot get to this mixture since Boric Acid is hazardous.

Ek kry hierdie op In en Om die huis gekry
Miere

* Ek merk dat heelwat lesers kla oor swart miertjies in en om die huis. Ek het die volgende raat gekry en moet erken dat dit
werklik werk
Maak die volgende mengsel aan:

100ml water
200ml suiker
50ml Borax (kry by apteek)

Sit
bietjies van die mengsel uit waar miertjies voorkom, sodat hulle dit
kan nes toe dra. As mens sien hulle staan sulke kringe om die stroop, is
dit ‘n goeie teken dat hulle dit geniet.

Sorg dat stroop altyd
beskikbaar is. Mens sien nie onmiddellik resultate nie, maar na ‘n drie
tot vier weke begin jy agterkom daar is nie meer miere nie. Hulle dra
die stroop nes toe, voer die ander miere en koningin daarmee en die hele
nes vrek uit.

Dit is ‘n uiters omgewingsvriendelike lokmiddel, geen gevaar vir kinders nie, maar dodelik vir miere.

*
vir die klein miertjies in die huis het ek die volgende gekry: Hierdie
kryt wat jy by die vlooimark kry. Ek weet dit werk maar dit is net ‘n
tydelike oplossing tensy jy dit gereeld gebruik.

* VIM strooi of babapoeier maar moenie dit afvee as jy skoonmaak nie.

* Gooi bietjie paraffien in ‘n miernes. Hulle sal gou verdwyn.

*
Vir hierdie suikermiertjies wat so die kombuis kan oorneem. Strooi net
rooipeper op strategiese plekke. Ek weet nie of dit hulle doodmaak nie,
maar hulle sal in ‘n dag of twee drie verdwyn.

WENKE VIR KOEKSISTERS

Die deeg moet net reg wees. Die olie warm weer, maar nie te warm nie.

Die stroop MOET yskoud wees.

Ek los die koeksisters n bietjie in die stroop sodat dit genoeg stroop opslurp.

Sit dit so gou moontlik in sakkies en so lou warm in die vrieskas en dan bly dan so crisp!
