It's been over two weeks since my last Insta-Love post..where does the time go?

row 2*dropping her off at school{sniffle}*hubs trying out his new Mac*morning reading because the book was due and I couldn't renew it*
row 3*the things I find on my phone!*January sunrises and sunsets rock(almost make up for the horrible weather, almost)*another Saturday at the skating rink and my reading material:SIGNED copy of YHL book and Entertainment Weekly plus coffee)*

row 1*out to dinner with friends and playing with my phone*can't get enough of my winter fruit salad!*at Starbucks with daughter and niece (we introduced little one to cake pops and that was that!)
row 2*our first shipment of Honey Bells*snow on the hot tub* hitting up the fabric store*

What do you have planned for the weekend?  
We don't have any big plans-hopefully some down time for relaxing and maybe a few house projects.

It's Happening...

 And it's ON!
I froze my little fingers off and braved the attic to bring this crate down.
Time to decorate!!
So much for calm and tranquil.

{Pinned} Cleaning a Stainless Steel Sink

I originally pinned a cleaning method here but I used a slightly different method for cleaning my own sink which I did not pin. {smacks head}

Let me show you how grody the sink was.
Nasty nasty!
This is embarrassing!
So moving on..let's get this baby clean!
Sprinkle baking soda over entire sink and spray with white vinegar. Scrub clean with sponge.
I also took out the rack and scrubbed it on both sides.

Rinse everything with a pot of boiling water and wipe dry.


Apply Goo Gone (optional) for any gooey residue, wiping clean.


Use a soft cloth to apply olive oil to the sink and buff dry.
Bask in the reflection of your clean, shiny sink.
So much better!
I really have to remember to do this more often.
What are your tricks and tips for cleaning stainless steel sinks?

Scavenger Hunt Sunday 1.20.13

Basket
I've had my Longaberger laundry basket for a long time and I still love it!
 Park
Since we have a leak in our faucet hose everything from under the sink is parked on the kitchen table.
 Auto 
Automatic dishwasher (at least this is still working while the sink is out of commission).
People Watching
I was people watching during the inauguration.
 Recycle
We recycle a lot of sticks and branches from our woods into heat for the fireplace.
