Notes

Baking & Cooking

Lemon Olive Oil Cake
I made this one before with oranges and another olive oil recipe. To be honest the orange version was better than this one. This one was a bit dry.I served it with whipped cream and blueberries though, so the whipped cream made up for the dryness.

Apple Pear Crisp
To be honest I only used the pear in the recipe. The combination with the ginger made it sublime! Oh, how I love ginger!

Cleaning

Clean Oven Racks with Cola
Didn't work as good as I thought it would be. Maybe if I let the racks soak for a night.

White Wash with Vinegar
Instead of putting the vinegar in the washing machine, I put the laundry in a tub with the vinegar and washed them afterwards in the washing machine. Worked fine.

Making/Doing

Anti Migraine Instructions
Honestly, I didn't think it would work, but when Ifelt an headache coming up, I followed the anit migraine massage instructions and the headache disappeared almost instantly.

For years I received e-mails from Martha Stewart in my inbox (no personal mails of course, just the mails everybody can subscribe to) but never did anything with them. Most of the time they were deleted the moment they came in. I don't even remember why I ever subscribed to them, I think because of the craft ideas that comes with them sometimes.  Since a couple of weeks though, I actually open and read the mails and use the tips and tricks that I can use. Especially the cleaning tips, because like most people (but this is just a wild guess, of course) I rather do funnier things than cleaning my house all the time.  What I do is making a list of all the tips and tricks in the Martha Stewart mails for one week, so they can be done in the following week. I bought a notebook especially for this purpose. The great thing about lists is that I can check off the things that are done. And man, does it feel good to see the list becoming shorter and shorter each week.  ...
