Making Eggs and Cleaning the Stove Top

I'm still not back on a schedule in the mornings...since every night is a new adventure with the baby:) This morning as I was making eggs for the 2 and 6 year olds I happened to get a good look at the burners...




BEFORE Look closer...

I have really been out of it to not have noticed them before now. They haven't been cleaned since I "nested" way back in January!

THE PROCEDURE
I pulled out the burners, stirred the eggs, removed the tin foil, stirred the eggs, wiped down the stove, salted and peppered the eggs...you get the idea.


THE TOOL


AFTER


I don't know about you but I feel much better!
And now it's on to making Project 7 happy :)


D asks the question Do you have a blind spot?


We all do! Look carefully. Here are a few typical ones.

*A messy kitchen desk in an otherwise orderly kitchen

*A porch or outside entryway into the home covered with garden soil, leaves, sand or Christmas tree needles

*Bathroom mirrors that are spotted

*Wastebaskets that are overflowing

*Interior of family car that is littered and soiled

*Dust on lamps and shades

*Fingerprints and dust on TV monitors and computer screens

*Cobwebs in corners of rooms and porches



Ugh--not only do we have Christmas tree needles in the basement entryway, but there are also some in the man room sink :( Lovely

  1. A Blind Spot is the perfect description. I know I have them and appreciate when my mom comes to visit and notices it (without being critical)and guides me through fixing it.
