Funky Laundry Smell?

This may be my favorite post yet! How many times have you forgotten about a load of laundry for too long in the wash and when you remember, it smells? I know that I have before and my clothes smell for the next few loads. Well I have found a way around that!! Below is the recipe and directions.. Read on!


What you will need:

1/2 Cup Baking Soda
1 Cup Vinegar


                                       


Take the cup of vinegar and the smelly clothes and put your water setting on hot and run the cycle. After that then take the 1/2 cup of baking soda and run the load one more time. Ya, ya, ya, I know it's a lot of water but I think that it's worth is so my clothes don't smell!

Once you have run the cycle with the baking soda throw them in the dyer and you're done. It's that easy and your clothes will come out smelling super fresh.

Good luck and hopefully this will work for your laundry like it worked for mine!

Clean your dishwasher!

Cleaning your dishwasher... What?! I had never heard of this until today! I've always heard of cleaning your toaster or oven or even your washer but your dishwasher?! Well I did it and it looks great! So what do you do you might ask? I shall tell you!


  • Take 1 or 2 cups of straight vinegar and place it in your dishwasher on the top. 
  • Run your dishwasher on the longest and hottest cycle you have. 
  • Once that cycle is done sprinkle some baking soda on the bottom on your dishwasher. (Not a lot though or it will leave a white residue)
  • Run another cycle, the shortest one you have and then you're done! 

Simple and easy as that! This should last you about 6 months or so, depending on how often you use your dishwasher. Regardless, it's good to do every once in a while!
