While we are on the subject ladies, I wouldn't dream of cleaning my house with such products derived from the torture of animals.
I use nothing but the freshest lemon juice to clean my net curtains, and for cleaning the toilet there is nothing better than plain old salt.
My house sparkles with righteousness and has a zesty tang too.
I must rush as I have a quiche in the oven.
Edit: removed the mean bit (they'll get theirs).
The fragrant cleanliness achieved is delicious.

Cooking is a passion of mine, i even pretend it is a chore, so my other half can make it one of my duties.
The fresh smell of garlic, or a freshly baked pie. Who needs air freshener, when you have these smells wafting through the house.
Right after the Cup final, I'll bake muesli buns. Have you tried them?

i have two different types of moisturizer, one in cream form that i use after a shower or when i'm going out and another in crystal form that i use just before a shower.
I use decubal to moisturize my hair and Lumina's 3-steps face liquids for shaving.

Ok, I get it now. Carpets are for you "all-floor" rugs. Interesting.
Well, nobody has those here, not at least that I've seen. It's harder to clean and they gather smells.
Yeah, balconies are the same here, it's just that Helsinki is not the best place in the world to be in a balcony with a cocktail, tanning and watching people in a pool, lol 🙂
Here ake the carpets or to hang them and then hit them hard so the dust and particles fly away.
kokolattiamatto ie. "all-floor rug" is wall-to-wall carpeting.
it's so nice to have this oasis of manly talk here. cooking, cleaning and interior design.

Yes, that's it, kokolattiamatto, but I haven't seen a single one around here, except for one office I visited once.
I presume it's far more practical cleaning-wise to have small ones over wood floor.

I combine it one and one day with ketoconazol, you know.
A very nice lady in Yliopiston Apteeki shared the heads up and my hair and scalp are sooooo happy about it.
Excellent for nails too.

Originally posted by huckleberryhoundOk, you know how to bake buns, so I won't bore you with the full one.
No, you'll need to send me the recipe.
I have to admit, bruchetta is my fav post footie snack, or lamb kebabs covered in spice....goes well with beer.
The only difference of this one is to add muesli to the mix. Then you make the roll and cut it in 12 as usual, and when you place them in the cupcake recipient* just make a halfway hole in the center with your finger, fill it up with hard butter, and after brushing them all up with milk and egg mix, sprinkle some muesli and top with cinammon.
It will blow your mind!
* Btw, I got the Jamie Oliver's cupcake tray, made of soft, resistant material, and it's delight when pulling it out of the oven, trust me.
