Homemaking Tip for this week:
Lemon juice is another natural substance that can be used to clean your home. Lemon juice can be used to dissolve soap scum and hard water deposits. Lemon is a great substance to clean and shine brass and copper. Lemon juice can be mixed with vinegar and or baking soda to make cleaning pastes. Cut a lemon in half and sprinkle baking soda on the cut section. Use the lemon to scrub dishes, surfaces, and stains. Mix 1 cup olive oil with ½ cup lemon juice and you have a furniture polish for your hardwood furniture.Favorite Blog Post of the week (mine or other):

I love your lesson learned. Also, I love cleaning with lemons! I love the scent, I love everything about lemons.
Have a great day!
Love your lesson learned! So true!
I use lemons to make my garbage disposal smell better! Just cut it in half and drop it in, then turn the disposal on and in a few seconds the whole kitchen smells lemony and good!
Cant wait to hear what you say about the books! I love the book store.....I have to stay out of them!!!
I love what's on your bedside table! My husband and I have had many late night talks about how we would survive the zombie apocalypse. Anyways, hope you had a wonderful time at the book store!
