Whoopie its random tip time!

1)A crumpled ball of aluminium foil makes an excellent scrubber for scouring blackened griddles, kadahis and pans.
(but please leave the teflon coated nonstick untensils alone, this method works well only on bare metal, covered with grime.)

2) Sprinkling a lot of chilli powder on ledges and other places where rats and mice are likely to enter from, discourages them like anthrax would discourage a human.But of course its not of any use if the place has a lot of human traffic, we want annoyed rats not sneezey bleary eyed humans.
lol

3) horrendous empty beer bottles can make excellent arty looking vases if you wrap them up in aluminum foil. crumple the foil a bit before you wrap the bottle in it.
If the beer bottle is coloured, scrape off the label, wash it good and wrap a string of fake pearls around it, just loosely.It instantly becomes a trashy glam vase.To give your cheap trashy lightweight vases (yes I know you have them, everyone does) a steadier foundation, take some plaster of paris powder, dissolve it in water so its runny enough and carefully pour it in the vase till its about 1/5th full.Give it a day or so to dry and it won't topple over anymore when you put flowers in it.
Plaster of Paris, when once dry and set, is waterproof.

4) Toilet cleaning fluid or Drain-O, when diluted, is an excellent grease cutter.
Exercise great caution while handling it though as it is greatly corrosive.Wear thick latex gloves and if you are clumsy enough , those funky chemistry lab glasses too lol
Put the diluted fluid in a pistol spray gun bottle and spray on greasy kitchen tiles and other non porous surfaces.Leave there for a while and wipe off, it'll work much better than regular cleaning fluids.Again please wear latex gloves while using this and keep out of reach of children.
Don't use on flooring or granite or laminated countertops as its likely to discolour them
Soak stained chinaware in the same liquid and years of built up coffee ,tea and food stains will come off in minutes guaranteed! For best results soak for as long as possible.



This blog gives the finger to everyone who looks down upon household chores and seems to feel proud about employing another human being to pick up after them.There's nothing to be proud about paying another human being to clean your filth.Its degrading, both to yourself and to the other person.

Dignity of labor
