Erin, if you put it in a spray bottle with some essential lemon or orange oil and a bit of water you might like it to clean your shower.

Vinegar with water is the only thing I use to clean my fridge. It's great for keeping it clean, safe, free from bad smells and doesn't make the food taste like cleaning agents

You can almost smell the vinegar in the air!!!!!!...smells a little pungent. Oh well...

It's from all the kitchen cleaning that has been happening. Counters, stoves and ovens are spotless and shinning. Pantries are stocked. Time to go shopping for fresh produce and we're good to go.
Two hours until the challenge starts... Trying to find things to do in the meantime... Normally I'd be curled up with a book by now, but no point starting one now, lol.
The amount of eggs, chickens, pigs, tea and fish I am finding in my current book makes me regret having started it yesterday. Stupid me
Have fun with your restaurants, all!

To be eligible for an advantage your team blurb needs to be on your spreadsheet by 23 September

The Seaside Book Cafe team had a lot of fun creating those meal names. I just hope we can live up to the naming in Round 2, haha!
