Cat-astrophes

First gem of wisdom for the day - avoid eating salty foods when you have recently bitten your lip. I gave my poor lip a fair chomp in two places today - both drew blood, and both made me make a funny noise when I bit into a seasoned rice-cracker...talk about rubbing salt into a wound...

Second bit of news, and I guess the reason for this post...

I'm in love.

I never knew how life-changing this could be...but it's true...everything has changed, everything is glowing, gleaming and radient.

I have discovered the power of vinegar. It all began with a little book opening up my eyes on how to get rid of a few stubborn stains 'the natural way'...and to be honest, I *have* heard of using vinegar before, but always thought 'spray and wipe works fine, thankyou'. However I decided to give it a go....

...and what do you know? It works! What's more, it works BETTER!

I have been polishing everything. My house smells like a take-away fish shop. All I need are those plastic strips dangling from my front door and some oily newspaper.

Finally, I must share my disappointment. I broke my first housey-item today. I spent 21 years smashing everything at my parents' house...but in my 4ish years out of home this is my first...a bowl....

....the annoying thing is I can't remember where I bought it from to replace it!!

The up-side though was that I got to see it smash! I love that whole slow-motion shatter-action...and oh boy did it shatter! I'm still treading on the chips after vacuuming twice.
