Mix the baking soda and salt; pour down the drain. Pour the heated vinegar down the drain and immediately cover it with a plug. The baking soda and vinegar will foam and bubble, so covering it will keep it cont
Ideally, your cat or dog should be able to defecate/urinate outside. If, however, you need to use a litter tray, don’t keep this in the kitchen or anywhere that you’re likely to put your foot in it. The laundry and the garage are ideal. It’s best to have a kitty litter tray...
As the machine runs, the vinegar solution is further diluted and gets rinsed away during the rinse cycle. (Remove the little glass and pour any remaining solution down the sink drain after the dishwasher runs.) Eureka! Many years and hundreds of loads of dishes later, I’m happy to report...
I use aqueous oxygen instead of bleach, and retain it in the sink, toilet bowl, etc, for the full fifteen minutes it takes for it to destabilize and revert back to ordinary water… then we flush and drain, harmless to our septic system. Reply August 1, 2014 at 1:09 am Maggie, You...
couple of cutting boards, set the “sandwich” in a container or clean sink, and weigh it down with a large cast-iron pan. Compress the cheese for 20 to 30 minutes, until it feels firm with minimal whey still leaking out. Refrigerate the cheese for 30 minutes and then cut it into ...

(and will thus fit 1.25" focuser adapters). Tom suggested using 1.25" sink drain extension piping, which works. As explained in the prior related thread, it's not nearly so straightforwardly easy to find compatible off-the-shelf tubing for this purpose as many would presume; in particular,...
Dish soap that triumphs over grease on dirty dishes does the same for grease and grime in other areas of the house. Use it to spring clean shower and sink scum, carpet stains, and automotive tools. For grease stains on clothing, dab on some dish soap, let sit a few hours, and wash ...
Just pull out what you can and then immediately put that dirty dish in the sink with hot soapy water. I found it helpful to spray my spatula with non-stick spray. Once the marshmallow mixture is all in the pan you’ll need to spread it out. A lot of recipes tell you to dip an ...
