Vinegar...
Vinegar's acetic properties make it 'The Perfect Household Cleaner. Vinegar has been prized for generations for its usefulness as a stain remover, mildew eliminator, soap scum dissolver, chrome polisher, lime descaler, fabric softener, room deodorizer and as an unclogging agent.

Extremely effective, compared to other cleaners.
An 'all-in-one cleaner,' so there is no need to buy an arsenal of cleaners for different purposes.
Non-toxic, so there is no fear of breathing harmful chemicals while cleaning.
Gentle on hands, so there is no need to wear rubber gloves.
Cleans streak free, so there is no need to rinse after cleaning.
Safe around young children, so there is no fear of a child being poisoned.
Environmentally friendly, so there are no harmful chemicals going down the drain.
Economical, much less expensive than other cleaners.

I like natural lemon oil for wood furniture. It smells wonderful! Aside from that I try to use vinegar for glass and surface cleaning. I can't stand the smell but it is so much better for the environment and human breathing that I use it any way. If someone could take the formula for vinegar and put a nice lavender to it instead, we'd really have something!

42. When you go to buy bread in the grocery store, have you ever wondered which is the freshest, so you "squeeze" for freshness or softness? Did you know that bread is delivered fresh to the stores five days a week? Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Each day has a different color twist tie. They are: Monday = Blue, Tuesday = Gr een, Thursday = Red Friday = White and Saturday = Yellow. So if today was Thursday, you would want red twist tie; not white which is Fridays (almost a week old)! The colors go alphabetically by color Blue- Green - Red - White - Yellow, Monday through Saturday. Very easy to remember. I thought this was interesting. I looked in the grocery store and the bread w rappers DO have different twist ties, and even the ones with the plastic clips have different colors. You learn something new everyday!
