Uh, Hello Landlord?

DAILY SNACK

I found a bottle of Windex lying on it’s side in a corner of the bathroom.

I’m usually careful about putting cleaning products away,

And now that Reenie’s getting into things,

I was really kicking myself for leaving it out.

The top of the bottle had been loosened,

(Young C?)

And there was a small pool of blue liquid on the floor.

When I went to wipe up the spill,

The top layer of linoleum tile (cheap and old, but still) came up too.

The Windex had dissolved the bathroom tile.

Okay mirrors,

Vinegar and newspaper it is.

I hear you. I’ve only been using water and vinegar, and baking soda for awhile now. And it’s working out fine. I add a bit of tea tree oil to a 50/50 water-vinegar solution and there you go, it even smells nice.

Adding the tea tree is a great idea. And I use baking soda for almost everything — it’s magic. It even took crayon marks off an Etch-a-Sketch the other day.
