Getting Rid of Odors in the Kitchen

"If an onion odor clings to dishes and pans after use, even after you have washed and dried them in the usual way, scour them well with table salt."

Non stick pans coated with polytetrafluoroethylen, more commonly known as "Teflon", have been around since their invention in 1938.

Ceramics, cast iron, stoneware, copper, and stainless steel are all common types of cooking surfaces.

The best way to clean these guys is follow the care instructions!

You may be able to use an abrasive method on your cast iron. It is common to use salt to clean a cast iron pan and keep it from rusting. I wouldn't use the same method on a stainless steel pan.

...

Now the Almanac's title today is misleading.

They actually do not have any suggestions for your overall kitchen or home odor problem.

I'm not sure what odors you tackle at home but let me just guess you are a massive hoarder with junk everywhere.

The best way to get odors out is to clean all your surfaces.

Start with a duster and dust all your things. Be sure to breathe in all that chemical goodness.

Next is to tackle the floor.

If you have carpet, get some scented baking powder, sprinkle on the carpet, let sit, and vacuum up.

Non-carpeted floors, use your correct cleaner on them floors.

Take out your trash!

That smelly smell is probably coming from that trash can you keep stepping into so you can somehow magically make some extra room.

Just stop and take it out lazy bones.

Vacuum your furniture.

Geez I know what you are thinking, "That is never going to happen."

I do this once a month or as needed.

Get rid of the dust on your couch, hair, pet dander, and discover a stain someone has tried to hide.

Then spray with some generic fabric deodorizer.

You can skip all this and spray some pledge in the air before company comes over and they are none the wiser.

Stuffed Lamb Cushion for Easter "Lamb is a traditional food for Eater. The lamb is a symbol of Jesus. In John 1:29 Jesus is referred to as "The Lamb of God", who takes away the sin of the world." Lamb is also a traditional Passover meal. In the book of Exodus, God was determined to save His people from their captivity in Egypt. The last plague He sent to Egypt was the death of the firstborn. God commanded that His people take an unblemished lamb, kill it, and but the blood of the lamb on their door post. This would be a sign for the Angel of Death to "passover" the house and not strike their firstborn. It would be after their freedom from slavery that God would institute traditional sacrifice for sins that would involve a lamb. Jesus' last supper was the Passover meal. He and His disciples ate lamb before He instituted the new covenant, teaching His disciples to remember Him in communion. Jesus would go on to be betraye

"Is There a Doctor in the House?" "Medical emergencies may occur at ay time, especially with young children. Prepare ahead of time by knowing exactly what you will do if it becomes necessary to get medical assistance quickly." Let's just sum up this blog post. AMERICAN HEALTHCARE SUCKS I hate doctors and their offices and their bills. This broken system we have is why "natural" remedies are becoming popular. We choose something other than a professional to treat us because our insurance won't cover services or the doctor might just misdiagnose us and throw meds at us. I'm sure this isn't everyone's experience. It has been mine for years. I had a good doctor once. If you want good medical services it will cost you. Remember when you could just go to a doctor? Now you have to make an appointment months in advance. If you need same day service, go to Urgent Care. If you are experiencing an
