A Simple yet Helpful Household Cleaning Tip

                                   A Simple Yet Helpful Household Cleaning Tip



Cleaning is something that most of us have to do. It is always nice to find more efficient ways of carrying out our necessary duties. Today I will be sharing a tip that I learned from my grandmother which has made mopping a quicker and easier process for me. :)

Before I learned this tip, there were two ways in which I cleaned the floors.
a) with a mop in a mopping bucket full of soapy water
b) by wiping the floor with a wet, and maybe soapy, rag

Now I will share the shortcut that I have learned. Simply take an old peanut butter jar and fill it with water along with your cleaning product of choice; then, drizzle the solution on your floor and begin mopping.

What I love about this method is that the mop never becomes soggy and needs to be rung out, and yet you can get your floor clean. For areas on the floor that are "caked up", pour on more solution than you would for other areas of the floor. Refill your peanut butter jar with your soapy solution as/if needed.

 I am thankful to God for every thing that I learn that makes life easier. Also... I'm thankful for my amazing grandmother who has taught me so much about life...and who continues to do so. :) 

I hope that this simple cleaning tip will make someone's mopping job shorter and easier. This tip has definitely helped me! Blessings. :)

Tornado Roll Hair Tutorial

Image
Hello everyone. :) (One important note: I mentioned that I wear a panty hose on my head at night to keep my hair neat. I either tie up the legs or wear a panty hose that has had the legs cut off. I wouldn't want anyone to have the legs end up becoming tied around their necks during their sleep. That doesn't sound safe). In today's video, I am showing you all how to do what I have termed a "tornado roll" on stretched natural African-American hair. This style would not work so well on most freshly washed natural African-American hair. African American hair is generally not washed daily. My definition of stretched hair is the following: natural African-American hair  that has been twisted, braided or put in buns for more than one day and that has then been combed out dry. This style can be done with straight or wavy hair as well. The hair tools that I use in this video are the following: A wide tooth comb A bristle brush A pony tail holder A large jaw clip Bobb

Hello everyone, Today I will be sharing part III of the series I am doing on the Whole Foods Plant-based Diet. Up until now I have not shared any recipes for foods that can be eaten in this diet. I am happy to let my readers know that this diet can be very tasty and delightful. In this part of the series, I will be letting my readers know what some of my favorite dishes have been through the years, and I will be providing links to where you can purchase the cookbooks that contain the recipes for these dishes, if you are interested in trying them. :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- There are vegan versions of very many kinds of foods.

         Would you be excited if you learned that there is a diet that has been shown to help people to drastically improve, and even reverse, type 2 diabetes and heart disease, and which also makes weight loss tremendously easier? Some medical professionals have come to see that the Whole Foods Plant Based diet can do incredible things for many of their patients: things that conventional medicine struggles to accomplish.  Today I will be sharing some free, online resources that give my readers scientific information on the benefits of the Whole Foods Plant-Based diet for type 2 diabetes and heart disease. I will also be sharing testimonials of people who have overcome obesity on this diet.       What I am sharing isn't a comprehensive ( comprehensive definition ) list of resources on these topics, but I hope that what I am sharing will be food for thought (that sounds like a pun!). As a friendly reminder, I am not a medical professional and what I am sharing is not a substitute fo
