Clorox Toilet Cleaning System

I've been using the Clorox toilet cleaning system for a couple of weeks, and I already love the way it cleans. I had posted a while back that I had started using vinegar to clean the hard water from the toilet rim along with Lime Away. Well, I wanted to try this Clorox system to try to remove stains that are building up on the bottom of the toilet bowls, because our toilets are 28 years old, and that happens. It's not gross, but I thought I should start trying to nip that now before it does get gross. And to do that I need to get just a tad deeper into the bowl than I can get with a toilet brush. So, I bought this Clorox kit. I did NOT put the vinegar in the toilet bowl when using these cleaning pads, because you aren't supposed to mix vinegar and bleach.

It turns out, the deeper area of the bowl is rough and not coated with ceramic like the upper section of the toilet bowl is, which caused the cleaning head to start separating from the plastic piece it was attached to. So, this system didn't work for me with my mission to clean deeper. Enough of the cleaning head remained intact, so I moved on and used it to clean the ceramic section of the bowl. It worked extremely better than the vinegar did! I was amazed at how much hard water build up came out from under the rim. My husband just cleaned out nearly 28 years of that build up in July of this year (2023), and I've been using the Lime Away and vinegar every week since. Wow! 

So, I can't really recommend the Lime Away and vinegar combo now that I've used this Clorox toilet cleaning system. I did spray some Lime Away under the rim before I used the system, so it may have helped a little. I just know that tons of that hard water build up came off with the Clorox system. There is tons of cleaner in that little cleaning pad. So, I scrubbed, flushed, and used the same cleaning pad again to remove the rest of the loosened build up from under the rim.

I highly recommend this product. Our toilets were literally sparkling after using these cleaning pads on them. My only caution is to NOT use it to clean that deeper portion of the toilet bowl, because the pad may come loose from the connected section that's attached to the wand. Keep an eye out for that to happen anyway, because these are not flushable cleaning pads. 

The pad easily drops into the waste basket with the push button on the front of the wand. Wipe the wand off with toilet paper and easily disinfect with a Clorox wipe before placing it in the holder on the front of the caddy. The section of the caddy with the lid is to hold your cleaning pads. Very convenient. No more transferring germs from toilet to toilet with a toilet brush or storing germs on a toilet brush inside the bathroom closet. 

Again, I'm not being paid for this product review. Just some friendly tips and advice if you've been thinking about using this system.

I'm still wondering how I can clean that bottom section of the toilet bowl without sticking my hands in there - even with gloves on. Maybe a bottle brush or sponge from the Dollar Tree? I'll let you know what I come up with. Or do you have a tried and true way that has worked for you? Let us know in the comments below.

Bounty Paper Towels Product Review

Today, I want to let you in on a little secret . I recently bought a new four-pack of  Bounty paper towels - full sheets. I am not a select-a-size fan at all, for the record. Anyway, the newer package didn't look as thick as the last several packages I had bought over the last several years. I happened to have an older package in storage (and I actually noticed not long ago that the rolls seemed to be smaller in more recent packages, as well, based on the way they fit more loosely in my paper towel holder; not too long ago, they were very snug in my holder until I had used four or five paper towels), so I compared the two when I brought the newer package home. Lo and behold, I was correct. So, I think the decrease in sheets actually started happening gradually over the last year or so. But this time, the reduction was very noticeable. And I hope Bounty won't decrease the size anymore. As you can see in the pictures below, the older package of paper towels shows 58 sheets per r...

Easy Way to String Green Beans and Slow Cook Them

Before I accidentally discovered this amazing trick that I'm going to share with you this morning , I would get so frustrated trying to string green beans. More than half of the time, I either would not be able to pull the strings off at all or the string would break before I reached the other end of the bean. For a reason I can't remember, after washing the green beans, I did what I'm telling you below, and I was able to string my green beans with ease. It was amazing!  Put green beans in a bowl of water. Place the bowl of green beans in the fridge overnight. The next day, the strings are easy to pull off the green beans.  If you have plenty of green beans to string, you'll want to remove about a handful from the cold water at a time - and place the green beans remaining in the water back into the fridge so the beans won't get warm before you finish stringing them. In other words, the strings pull off better when they are colder. And the beans break better, too, if...

I AM: Meditation 5

I want you to go ahead and prepare for today's meditation by getting your  relaxing music/sounds (if you want),  tissues, and water ready. Have your journal ready for today's entry after our session. Find a comfortable sitting position, and place your praying hands against your chest near your heart. Release any tension, starting with your forehead and your jaws. Next, your neck, shoulders, back, arms, hands, fingers. Finally, your hips, thighs, calves, ankles, feet, and toes. Let those stressors fade away. Let calm replace them. Relax. Listen to Meditation 5 . Today's meditation is based on Exodus 3:13-15 New Living Translation (NLT): Moses protested, “If I go to the people of Israel and tell them, ‘The God of your ancestors has sent me to you,’ they will ask me, ‘What is his name?’ Then what should I tell them?” God replied to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM. Say this to the people of Israel: I AM has sent me to you.” God also said to Moses, “Say this to the people of Israel: Yahw...
