Homestead Tip of the day…

Want to SPRING CLEAN those windows and mirrors? The easiest, cheapest ol’ fashion clean will come with a couple old rags and straight white vinegar. Yup, it can be that simple.

Just take a couple old rags (cut up old towels work great!) dab a little straight vinegar on one–and wipe/scrub your glass, then wipe dry and you will see the cleanest glass ever! 

I just did a few of my windows last week and we’ve been getting some glorious sunshine lately — you could really see all the fingerprints, etc–not now–they are crystal clean and I can SEE thru ‘em ! Imagine that?!

Hopefully this week I can get to the rest of the windows–this is an EXCELLENT, cheap, non toxic, SIMPLE window and glass cleaner!

Stockpile Vinegar — it is cheap and has SO MANY uses!!!

Homemade Dill Dip…Mmmm!

Wow–these pictures are much bigger than I anticipated :)

Okay–so having a par-tay? Get together, or just looking to make up some YUMMY homemade dip for veggies & crackers? This, my friend, is it. YUM.

Dill Dip–and it’s so easy. Ready? Gather:

1C Sour Cream

1C Mayo

2t Dill (adjust to your likin’–we add about 4t)

Mix and add Johnny’s Seasoning Salt–a few shakes will do (again to your preference) and if you don’t have Johnnys (I’m sorry…;) any seasoning salt will make do here…

 Just mix, chill and refrigerate until ready to serve with veggies or any of your favorite cracker or chip.

Simple, easy…best of all, as my husband likes to say, ‘made with love’ ;)

ENJOY!
