A Baller Stain Remover + More Cool Things

this !

^^Note the open door! We are finally having some mild days here. The fresh air is SO nice!! Isn’t it crazy that Birch has never felt the sunshine on his body. His arms and legs have never felt fresh air. I can’t wait for our Florida trip coming up so he can experience the joy that is warm sun for the first time! I bought him this cute little swim suit for the trip : )

Baller Stain Remover

I gotta share this before and after! I first used Oxiclean (MAX FORCE!!) on this blow-out stain and washed it regularly with a Tide pod. As you can see, the stain did not come out. I’ve had this Amodex stain remover for a long time after some of you guys recommended it years ago. I don’t know why I have the Oxiclean because the Amodex works SO much better. Look at the stain 5 minutes later – all gone! I just squirt the Amodex on it and rinse with warm water while doing some scrubbing action. (Side note: many of you on Instagram said sunshine is the best stain remover.)

Magazine-a-Holic No More

I used to get a billion home magazines. They were my go-to entertainment at the gym. But simultaneously I have cut back on my cardio machine time and when I do use one, I listen to podcasts instead. These days I only get a few magazines – HGTV, Better Homes and Gardens, and Country Living. My favorite Coastal Living just morphed away from subscriptions. Do you guys still read magazines?

Lunch: pre-soccer sandwich and pretzels. 

Crawdads Are Singing

LOVING this book! I love that it’s set in North Carolina, it’s a little bit adventure, a little bit survivalist, a little bit romance, and a little bit mystery. All of my favorites rolled into one and beautifully written too. I’m not even halfway through and really into it. If only I could read more than 5 pages per night before falling asleep! I want to keep reading, I really do, but my eyes just won’t have it! I did a little bit of morning coffee reading on Sunday to try to get ahead.

New Soccer Bag

My old soccer bag was a giant duffle with stuff spilling out of the pockets. It also had no water bottle holder, which is perhaps the most important pocket of them all. A friend had a similar bag to this one at our indoor games, and I bit the bullet to replace my old one with this one. SUCH a good choice. Not only are there two water bottle pockets (I have one with electrolytes and one with ice water), but I love that it stands upright on the field.

There are so many great pockets too. Its only drawback is not having a pouch for dirty shoes, so I just have a drawstring bag for my cleats. Problem solved!

Mazen’s Scrambled Eggs

Let me tell you a story about these eggs. I fed Mazen scrambled eggs nearly every day when he was one. I alternated between eggs, yogurt, and oatmeal – three foods I think are of superior nutrition. Poor Mazen woke up one day around age 2 and never ate an egg again.

Fast forward to age 6.5 and we were getting ready for bed the other night.

“What do you want for breakfast tomorrow?” I asked him.

“Scrambled eggs!” he said.

“Seriously? You want eggs?” I said incredulously.

“Yes, I saw a dude on You Tube eating them and they looked good.” he responded.

Well then! So as promised in the morning he was delivered a plate with one scrambled egg and buttered toast. I was up nursing Birch in bed holding my breath to see if he would eat them. Did he take even one bite? Nope. He said: “These don’t look like the You Tube eggs.”

MAZEN! I will have to look up this video and compare.

So needless to say, I ate his eggs for breakfast. With leftover cornbread and grapes!

Smoked Not Smoked

Thomas made the best smokey salmon for our Sunday dinner. But it was not smoked salmon – it was just salmon with smoked flavor! He put brown sugar and a little Liquid Smoke on top and then grilled it inside aluminum foil so it stayed nice and moist. It was some of the best salmon we’ve made at home yet! I made a salad dressing (eyeballed) with yogurt, olive oil, lemon, lemon zest, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and fresh dill. Fresh dill is 100% my favorite herb!

Hope you guys are having a great week!

    The only time I used to read magazines was when I was a teen and magazines like Tiger Beat and Sugar were in, haha… it’s been so long!

    I still read magazines but refuse to pay for them! We use leftover airline miles to get subscriptions.

    I check out magazines from the library whenever we’re headed on a trip or I’ll be in the car for a bit. They always have the newest (and older) issue of a bunch of titles so I can grab a few and read for free, and then just return them so I’m not stuck with a pile of old magazines laying around my house 🙂

      Great suggestion! I’d probably spill water on them though. Do you have to return them in perfect condition?!

        Yes, you need to return them without damage. A little normal wear and tear is usually fine though.

    haha Mazen and his eggs. He is so cute and welp… no eggs yet! 🙂 Moms cannot compete with the youtubers. 😉

    I don’t really get magazines anymore either thanks to podcasts! Same as you. I do get runners world even tho I don’t run super lots, and my yoga magazine comes just because I get my teacher insurance thru yoga journal’s plan and it’s a freebie bonus. I don’t really love it tho and usually just look at the pics for ideas and toss it.

    Podcasts i LOVE!
    XOXO

    What electrolyte powder or beverage do you use? My husband needs to start supplementing (he is a runner) and I have been wondering what he should use!

        Thank you!! A few of the reviews mentioned a strong stevia taste. Do you notice that at all? If no, I’m going to buy it!

          I would not say strong, but I also rarely use more than one scoop at a time even though the serving size is two scoops. The times that I have used closer to two scoops I think the flavor/taste is too strong. Maybe that’s the Stevia coming through?

    There are several foods from childhood I wouldn’t touch for more than a decade, some i still try to avoid- graham crackers, raisins, apple juice, cheerios, bran flakes and bananas. There’s definitely such a thing as total burnout for kids! I just figure i ate a lifetime worth of these by the time i was 12.

    I would be lost without my magazines. I subscribe to Good Housekeeping, Food Network magazine, InStyle, Real Simple, and US Weekly. And I just ordered Oprah for two years super cheap. I actually read the magazines, too, no just skimming through them. I just two days ago finished the book you’re reading. It’s a very good book, but I thought I could do without the poetry. Turns out, I really couldn’t.

    If your public library has the RBDigital app, you can get a zillion magazines for free. They’ll notify you when a new issue is out and you can download them to your tablet.

    I love magazines! I get Martha Stewart Living, Saveur Magazine, Bon Apetite, and Consumer Reports – a few of those are gifted subscriptions.

    I loathed asparagus more than anything when I was little. I really like it now but when I eat it I still get this weird heebie-jeebie feeling remembering how much I hated it. Very curious to see what is so different about the YouTube scrambled eggs. lol

    I have stopped subscribing to print magazines. I use the Texture App on my tablet. I get the $9.99 a month. There are a ton of options to read. I feel it is well worth the money. Where The Crawdads Sing is on my reading list.

    I’m actually really interested to hear what YouTube video it was? 🙂 since the eggs looked so different! I love the way you make yours, and my fiancé just asked me how I actually make them (since they are so yummy) – and told him it’s inspired by you! So we think your scrambled eggs are best, even better than hotel ones!

    I have cut down on my magazine subs drastically and now read lots of them on Kindle. Many magazines come free with a regular Amazon Prime subscription although they rotate so you are never guaranteed month to month ‘yours’ will be there. It saves me a lot of money

    Hi Kath, I’ve read your blog for a number of years now and am enjoying watching your lovely family grow (up!). As something I’m increasingly aware of, it would be really cool if you could promote/cover the concepts of reduce-reuse-recycle, and perhaps low-waste groceries as part of the way that you consider choices as a (visible) responsible consumer. I’m taking a lot of steps to cut down/eliminate on the packaging in the items that I choose to buy, including toiletries, and it would be great to have your voice added to this really important concept. Thanks, love reading this!

    I still like magazines! I subscribe to Real Simple (my all-time favorite), Southern Living, Better Homes and Gardens, and Magnolia. I also really like Our State (NC magazine) so I might swap out SL for that next year.
