    Bread in the microwave. I use "Clean People" laundry soap sheets works great and liquid soap can freeze. Citric acid is safe and works to clean toilets too. In Camo Fire Girls we used a mesh plastic bag (like what oranges come in) and dip our dishes and silverware in boiling water after scrubbing to sanitize.

    I got knife cases and being I'm cooking for 1 or 2 people no need for multiple knives. Actually lately I've been buying cheap Dollar Tree knives and after I wash I'll sharpen in. It works so I'm not complaining but I love how they have covers to shove into my utensils drawer.

    Those essential oils are actually toxic and can be overwhelming for some. I only use them if I can contain it to one small room and I unfortunately don't do it often. Actually what works great at odors is activate charcoal in little jars hidden around the house. I lived in a roach infested place and each month they sprayed Raid and that stink is awful so that's when I did activated charcoal and sucked up that toxic smell. Also activated charcoal is what is used in water filters, air filters and emergency rooms use it. If someone is poisoned they will administer charcoal (unless you have an allergy).

    • @MakingMyAbodeOTR
      @MakingMyAbodeOTR  หลายเดือนก่อน

      @H37P5kY57 When used PROPERLY essential oils are not toxic. Some people can be allergic so yes use with caution as they are potent. They should ALWAYS be diluted in some form!

      I use laundry sheets as well. I will never go back to liquid or powder. The only powder I use in my washer is a 1/4cup of baking soda in each load (this is my main machine as we live full time on the road)…keeps wash machine clean and the pipes clean…also helps with the rubber gasket smell that can build up (I have no smell whatsoever). Saves on space as they are small and thin.

    Hello from central Colorado, I may have missed a couple of video postings. My husband had out patient surgery on his nose, so things were a little busy. I do the microwave storage thing too. Hey, have you ever experienced delamination on outside walls. We noticed one area under one of our orange reflective lights on the front. We did leave the trailer at our usual RV place, they had it for 3 weeks. I called to get a follow up, it was disappointing to hear the parts person was trying to find costs from the manufacture to replace the WHOLE front. My response was, do you really feel an RV 8 years old there would be still material available. Waited one more week, no call back. We decided to make a surprise visit to remove our RV. We pulled both lights, noticed large holes for wires. My husband sealed around each fixture, hoping this fixes the problem. Enjoy Washington, apples are huge in grocery stores. Safe travels

    • @MakingMyAbodeOTR
      @MakingMyAbodeOTR  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @patriciacooke886 Hi 👋 ☺️ We personally have not had any delamination thank God. Unfortunately that indicates a leak somewhere hopefully not the roof! 😬🫣 Hopefully the things your husband did will keep it from getting worse. We're back in Colorado right now for hunting season! Hoping my husband gets us some Elk meat, I'm tired of spending a fortune on meat in the grocery store 😒

      Our son checked seals on roof, said they all looked good. I hope your husband has a great hunt. Again safe travels.
