wwwkristinjohnstoncom: Spring Cleaning Tips....Overhead Fixtures - 05/22/13 12:21 AM

 
As I mentioned yesterday, I am tackling my spring cleaning right now (a bit late I realize)....Here are some tips on how to clean your overhead fixtures: 
 
Hanging lamps:  Always turn power off.  For pendants, wash the glass globe in the sink.  If it's not fragile, pop the dome into the dishwasher.  use distilled white vinegar and a microfiber cloth to polish the rest of the fixture.  You can also spray chandeliers thoroughly with a degreasing cleaner (place a shower curtain on the floor to catch drips).  Apply white vinegar with a rag to rinse, and gently rub … (14 comments)

wwwkristinjohnstoncom: Spring Cleaning Tips....Walls and Baseboards - 05/20/13 10:46 PM
I am in the middle of my spring cleaning tasks around the house, as I am sure many of you are.  I am a bit late this year, but better late than never :-).  Here is a great way to tackle cleaning your walls and baseboards.   
 
For Baseboard cleaning, first dry dust or hand vacuum with a brush attachment and revisit with a rag and a bucket of hot soapy water.  Or, you can clean on a low setting with an extension attachment on a household steamer.
 
For Walls, most scuffs on walls will disappear with a spritz … (14 comments)

wwwkristinjohnstoncom: 5 Clever Uses For Olive Oil! - 05/17/13 12:04 AM
I love olive oil, especially because there are so many clever uses for it!  Try these out:
 
1.  Remove paint from hands.  Freshly painted walls can leave your hands stained with stubborn splatters.  Mix a teaspoon of olive oil with a pinch of baking soda or sugar and use it to gently rub away dried drips. 
2.  Unstick zippers.  Zippers will slide smoothly again with the help of a little oil.  Carefully use a cotton swab to apply a small amount inside the slider body and move the tab up and down the teeth a few times.
 
3.  Sub … (24 comments)

wwwkristinjohnstoncom: Wake up allergy-free! - 05/15/13 11:44 PM
I see a lot of folks miserable with allergies, especially this time of year.  If you make small, easy changes to your bedtime routine, you will wake up feeling much better the next day.
 
Wash your hair or pat it with a damp towel just before lying down.  Pollen sticks to your hair and can transfer to your pillow and sheets.  This causes flare-ups that can keep you from getting a good night's sleep.
 
Take allergy medication.  This seems obvious, but I usually only take medication as a last resort, for anything.  Taking allergy medication ensures that the drugs … (18 comments)

wwwkristinjohnstoncom: 3 Ways To Prevent Diabetes - 05/14/13 11:54 PM
I saw an article on Womansday.com that discussed how small changes can help reduce your diabetes risk by 58%.  Here are 3 ways to prevent diabetes: 
 
1.  Cut sugar.  Skip sugary beverages like soda, lemonade, coffee drinks and fruit juice.  Sip water or seltzer with a slice of lemon or lime for flavor.
 
2.  Move more.  Walk for short periods of time throughout the day.  Go for a 10 minute walk in the morning, march in place during commercial breaks, and stand up every hour to take two laps around your home.
 
3.  Eat vegetables.  Fill half of … (11 comments)

wwwkristinjohnstoncom: Motivational Monday, Helen Keller Quotes - 05/12/13 11:19 PM
The most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched, they must be felt with the heart.
 
 
 
I am only one, but still I am one. I cannot do everything, but still I can do something; and because I cannot do everything, I will not refuse to do something that I can do.
 
 
 
Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring … (19 comments)

wwwkristinjohnstoncom: Happy Mother's Day! - 05/12/13 12:30 AM
Mother's Day comes once a year. Some think that if they buy their mother flowers and a card that they have fulfilled their obligation for the rest of the year. If we only comprehended a 10th of what our mothers did for us as children, and how they would literally die for us if needed, we would realize that one day is not sufficient. Mothers Day should be a time to remind us that we have been neglecting our duties as sons and daughters. This relationship is sacred let us honor our mothers.

wwwkristinjohnstoncom: A Bit Of Humor.... - 05/10/13 12:23 AM
Why Ethel Changed Motels   Last week Ethel checked into a motel on her 70th birthday and she was a bit lonely. She thought, “I’ll call one of those men you see advertised in phone-books for escorts and sensual massages.”

She looked through the phone-book, found a full-page ad for a guy calling himself Tender Terry - a very handsome man, with assorted physical skills flexing in the photo. He had all the right muscles in all the right places, thick wavy hair, long powerful legs, dazzling smile, six-pack abs, and she felt quite certain she could bounce a sixpence … (22 comments)

wwwkristinjohnstoncom: Strawberries...who knew? - 05/08/13 11:50 PM
Did you know that a strawberry should technically not be called a berry?  True berries, like blueberries and cranberries, have seeds inside, whereas strawberry seeds are on the outside of the fruits. 
 
Since the 1800s, strawberries have been a grand slam at Wimbeldon.  Each year, spectators consume over 30 tons in the form of strawberries and cream, the event's signature dish. 
 
When it comes to deciding whether to splurge on organic strawberries, consider that they have more vitamin C and antioxidants than conventional berries.  Also, because they contain less water, they tend to have more concentrated sweetness.  They are … (23 comments)

wwwkristinjohnstoncom: Motivational Monday, Mark Twain Quotes - 05/05/13 11:12 PM
It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to open one's mouth and remove all doubt.
Mark Twain
 
Patriotism is supporting your country all the time, and your government when it deserves it.
 
Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.
 
Forgiveness is the fragrance that the violet sheds on the heel that has crushed it.
 
Get your facts first, then you can distort them as you please.
 
Kindness is the language which the deaf can hear and the blind can see.
