Easy French Bread

I have a pretty simple and fast french bread recipe but I wanted to try this one out.  It was great, the bread was yummy and easy to make.  I still like my recipe but I think now I have another option that I can use.  This is just different enough from my recipe that I can use both.  The family all liked it and it ended up being a hit.

Making your drink cold

My husband had a mountain dew the other day that was room temperature but he wanted to drink it.  I instantly remembered pinning this pin and thought we would give it a try.  The bottle we had was plastic not glass but I would guess glass would work even better and tin would work just as well.  It worked great!! I left it wrapped in the freezer for about 20 minutes and it was cold! It saved the day!!!

Floor Cleaner

I have always used my own little mix of ingredients to clean my floors but I wanted to see how well this one worked out.  And, with my experience with baking soda I was not looking forward to how this might turn out but I have to say it worked great.  The baking soda didn't leave a grimy film or sandy finish.  The solution cleaned the floor beautifully and it is now the solution I will always use when cleaning my floors.  I really was impressed with the results and it is so easy and cheap to put the solution together.  Some water, vinegar, soap and baking soda and you are ready to mop your floors to a beautiful, clean shine.  This is a must try!!!

DIY Wrinkle Releaser

I love wrinkle releaser, it was huge in my house when it came out.  We own an iron but we never use it so I love this stuff.  I was so happy to find this DIY for wrinkle release.  A much cheaper way to get my wrinkle release and it works!!! The best part is that you smell just like fresh laundry after you use it.

Cleaning between the oven glass

Can I say there are some very smart people out there that I am so grateful for!!! I have seen pins like this before and it always entailed you taking apart your door so I was so excited when someone figured out how to do it in such an easier way.  Especially since there has been a streak of food on my glass that has been driving me nuts for months.  This pin worked so good and completely cleaned my glass.  My kids thought it was hilarious too because it looked like I was doing a funny magic trick.  Thank you to the smart person who came up with this pin, yet another reason I love, love Pinterest.
