 Spot FreeDo you have spot or cloudy glassware from hard water residue?
There is a quick and easy trick that you can do to make them look new and clear
again. Boil white vinegar and water at a 1 to 1 solution (1 cp to 1 cp) in a
sauce pan. Soak your glassware for 15 to 20 minutes in the solution. When they
are done wash them in soap and water and hand dry them. If they still come out
cloudy or they have obvious substantial stains you can use just vinegar the
same way and it will help get them even cleaner. |

 Dirty Shower Head
You climb into theshowerand notice that the stream reminds you of a gentle rain, awe so soothing. Wait a second the shower is set to have a wide pattern with enough pressure to blow off all the dirt. When yourshowerhead gets plugged up with a ton of mineral deposit it will barely work, I suppose if you are on a diet and you need to loose a little weight leave it alone because you will have to run around the shower stall to get wet. |
