    Best Shot Monday - 2/18/08 - Land of nod

    February 17, 2008

    I decided to jump on the bandwagon and try my hand at some texture this week. It’s pretty subtle here, but that’s how I roll.

    Here’s my best shot of the week of my sleeping li’l puddin’:

    Green Tip of the week #13 - The power of baking soda

    Baking soda - it’s not just for baking!

    If I could only have one type of cleaning product for my whole house, it would be baking soda - pure and simple. Non-toxic baking soda has so many practical uses without the worry of harsh chemicals. Here are just a few:

    • Safely clean baby or pet toys - Use 4 tablespoons of baking soda dissolved in 1 quart of warm water. Wash toys with a clean damp sponge or cloth, rinse and dry.
    • Clean baby equipment (stroller, high chair, changing table, exersaucer, swing, etc.) - Just sprinkle baking soda on a clean damp sponge and rub the item clean. Rinse thoroughly and allow to dry.
    • Freshen and deodorize carpets - sprinkle baking soda on the carpet, let sit for 15 minutes, then vacuum it up
    • Cleaning bathroom tubs, tile and sinks - even shiny fiberglass and glossy tiles- sprinkle baking soda lightly on a clean damp sponge and scrub as usual. Rinse thoroughly and wipe dry.
    • Freshen sponges - Soak stale-smelling sponges in a strong baking soda solution to get rid of the mess and bring in the fresh (4 tablespoons of baking soda dissolved in 1 quart of warm water).
    • Clean your produce of dirt and other residue - Just sprinkle a little baking soda on a clean damp sponge, scrub and rinse.
    • Clean your counter tops - Sprinkle baking soda onto a clean damp sponge or cloth and wipe clean, rinse thoroughly, then dry.

    What else do YOU use baking soda for?

    Thanks to Arm & Hammer for many of these great tips.
