@tinkerbell2675 Good luck I hope you can get rid of the ants. I saw that comment too, I have never heard that either but will be doing my own research on that. So far from what I gather it's only if you ingest large amounts that it cause reproductive harm in males and females. It can also irritate the skin with prolonged contact with the skin. Borax is a natural element but that doesn't mean it's harmless. 😊

Well, LeeAnne, I think you may have just saved my hubby’s sanity. We live in the remote Canadian Arctic and the brown sugar that we get from our grocery store here is already cement-esque! We have taken to buying it ONLY when we go south so it’s at least soft to start. Once it hardens over time here, my poor hubby will scrape off chunks and then put them in the blender until we have powder again. I will definitely purchase a large Mason jar, lid, and sealers to keep it fresh for us. We have tried everything else , so I am hopeful this time. We were gifted a couple of those clay thingies that you soak in water and it’s supposed to freshen up your brown sugar. The Arctic’s lack of humidity laughed at my little figures (I have a bear and a heart) and still turned my brown sugar to rock. My mother said the old Scottish gals in Cape Breton added a slice of bread. It turned the bread just slightly less hard as the sugar. I have even tried the old trick of just adding a bit of molasses to white sugar to make brown sugar. Don’t bother - it’s not true. LOL THANK YOU for sharing your tried and true method!!! We head out again in August, so I will buy new sugar and my mason jar and let you know how it goes. Hugz❣️❣️🇨🇦

I was watching a homesteader using borax like you ate doing and he stated that he does not let his wife or his daughter touch anything that has come in contact with the borax due to the reproductive harm that it can have on girls, women and pregnant women. I now use a mask and heavy duty gloves when handling it. All the best to you.

FYI, feedback to consider for future videos. I almost stopped watching during the shower curtain bit when you spliced in clips of gratuitous physical violence. Don't misunderstand, I have nothing against violence in context in movies. It was just so unexpected and jarring, it was an unpleasant intrusion into a pleasant day. After the second clip, I was still curious so I decided "three strikes and you're out!" Clips like the Calgon one can be funny, but please don't use violent or disgusting ones with no warning. You're driving away viewers who would otherwise love your videos!
@MakingMyAbodeOTR5 күн бұрын
@CritterKeeper01 Thanks for the tip. 👌 The point of the absolutely hilarious (and insanely VIOLENT 🙄) clip, from the movie 50 First Dates is that it portrays the feelings of the shower curtain sticking to you. Makes you want to beat it up! 😆 When I make my videos I always want them to be helpful but also entertaining. I try to make them something I would enjoy watching while also keeping my audience in mind. I can't please everyone, and if I tried it would just be an epic fail. I fully accept that some folks won't like what I do, like me, or my lifestyle. If I changed the way I make my videos because of a few folks who are extremely sensitive and /or don't understand comedy, they'd be a bit boring 😴 and I'd be doing my audience and myself a disservice. I can't help but wonder if the few who have made their feelings known here, have the same feelings about the violence inflicted on the unborn in this country every day. 🤔

I have a question... I'm interested in this model of camper, but aren't the kids cold with the air conditioning near them? And you, aren't you hot without air in the main room? Thanks
@MakingMyAbodeOTR7 күн бұрын
@RVFinder Hi 👋 Yes...and no. There is a trick to it. Well a few tricks actually. We have found that closing the vents on the ac in the loft forces the air through the rest of the rv, while also keeping the loft from getting too cold. In the master we use a small fan to help circulate the air better. The ceiling fan in the kitchen also helps tremendously to circulate the cold ac air as well as the fireplace and furnace when we use them. Another thing we did was remove the vent covers on the ceiling vents because it let's more cool air out! If yoy DM me on Instagram I can send you a picture of what I'm talking about. My kids are very comfortable up in the loft and we are comfortable as well. We're from Colorado and can get hot easily at night and we haven't had any problems. We have been very happy with this model! However, I do HIGHLY recommend taking the residential fridge and washer dryer upgrade!

Never EVER, EVER use lysol on anything, because it stays on whatever you put it on and is flamable. If there was ever a fire it would go up in flames like dousing it with gasoline. Also, lysol stinks and is filled with chemicals that are bad for your health by just inhaling it.

For brown sugar, I bought some terra cotta "brown sugar bears" off Amazon that I keep in the container with mine. They work great and look cute. (I bought them for my family as small gift/stocking stuffers, too). You can also soften even the hardest "brick" of brown sugar by putting it in a container or ziploc with a slice of bread for a few hours or overnight.

I love the way you've set things out. I personally have set my pantry up that the ingredients I use most are both grouped together but also close to where i use them. for example, my tea, coffee, etc. are close to where my kettle sits. my baking needs are grouped together close to my other baking needs, trays etc. and I have a whiteboard attached to the fridge to write anything that gets close to empty. most containers I use are all square or rectangular and I have a 1 or 2 cup mark which is my trigger point to rebuy. I also use a master list which covers the maximum capacity of containers so that I don't buy a 3kg bag flour or sugar when my containers only fit 2, but lists all of my foods in both the fridge, freezer and pantry. i am looking into a different method which utilises an app and bar scanner to help.
