Spring Clean Your Washer

Image
Shared from our friends at Speed Queen  It’s the season of spring cleaning again, when closets, bedrooms, attics and the whole house get organized and scrubbed clean, but what about your large appliances like your washing machine? They wash your clothes at least every week, but just like those tubs and sinks, washing machines need regular cleaning, too, despite being regularly exposed to the soap and water that comes with washing your laundry. Over time, detergent residue, dirt, soap scum and mold build up in the machine, resulting in odors. Cleaning your washing machine will help it last longer and guarantee a clean and quality wash for your clothes, every load. Of course, check the owner’s manual before cleaning your washing machine. To sanitize the machine, you’ll need baking soda, vinegar, and a sponge. For top load washing machine, use 4 cups vinegar and 1 cup baking soda.

Irish Soda Bread recipe

IRISH SODA BREAD Just in time for St. Patrick's Day. INGREDIENTS: 3 cups all-purpose flour 1 cup whole wheat flour 1 teaspoon baking powder 1 teaspoon baking soda 2 ½ teaspoons kosher salt 4 tablespoons cold butter, cut into small chunks 1 2/3 cups buttermilk METHOD: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, combine flours, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Whisk to combine. Add cold butter; use a pastry blender or your fingers to work the butter into the dry mix until it resembles coarse crumbs. Pour in the buttermilk and combine with a fork or wooden spoon until a loose dough forms. Do not overmix. You want to mix the dough as little as possible so that doesn’t get tough. Use your hands to shape the dough into a roughly 7-inch round. Place the dough on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Cut a cross into the top of the dough with a sharp knife. This will allow the bread to bake more evenly in the oven. Bake for 1 hour and 20 mi...
