28 & 29 February 2018 - Your End of Month Potpourri

February Potpourri for Homemakers

As usual the end of the month marks a mix of things for us Homemakers to pay attention too.

This post will also incorporate an extra day incase of a Leap Year!

Here are your Homemaking Tips:

1. Put a Paper Towel Under the Milk in the Fridge

This helps catch drips so you don't have to wash the fridge so often.

(wash fridge, is that a phrase you can use in a sentence?)

2. Clean Pictures and Mirrors

Both of these can be cleaned using a regular glass cleaner

3. Use Paper Towels for Fatty Foods

I'm sensing a theme.

After cooking bacon or sausage, place on a paper towel after cooking to absorb the excess fat drippings. But be sure to save that bacon goodness for you know bird feeders!

4. Blot up Liquids with Paper Towels form Your Carpets and Rugs

Absorb by dabbing the liquid from the carpet and then clean using the appropriate surface cleaner.

5. Use pieces of wax paper to spread fat when greasing a dish or mold

AH! They broke the theme on this one!

Paper towels will just absorb greasy oily things that you don't want absorbed but to spread in a cake pan or casserole dish to keep baked good from sticking.

Lemon Meringue Pie: Leap Year Overture

"Today comes only once every four years. We call it Leap Year Day. It's the traditional time for gals to take the initiative and make overtures to guys."

It became tradition that on Leap Year Day, a woman was allowed to propose marriage to a man. I really don't know how this started but here we are.

Our Homemaker Heroine is nabbing her man with a Lemon Meringue Pie.

This girl knows this is the adequate way of getting your man. They way to a man's heart is through his stomach after all!

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
