After the shower, wipe dry and then use the wipes to keep water from penetrating. I wish I know what would take off the water spots but I am sure that you have tried everything that I would suggest.<br /><br /> I just love pear preserves. My mom would make the most wonderful cobblers with them and she would preserve them. In the winter I would put a large spoon of pear preserves on top of my kids oatmeal. <br /><br /> So sorry I am so far behind. I am playing catch up today. I just love your new layout. I love everything about the Moon and Sun and Stars... xxBeth Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12103650100630485292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2086296370004835655.post-49380618313518688912019-08-17T19:23:39.747-04:002019-08-17T19:23:39.747-04:00Yes!

I mainly say that because it has bacon in it. <br />Every time I go to attack those water stains I think of you taking your shower doors off and soaking them in a kids' pool with vinegar in it.

Like maybe bears that got into the edibles? <br />I think my next door neighbors own that house. I heard (and this may not be true) that they bought it to prevent the "wrong sort" from moving in. I do not feel the need to say more than that. It would take a hell of a lot of work to restore it. <br />Sounds like your dad did indeed have a sand pear tree.

I prefer to put up food by freezing because it doesn't cook whatever to death in the water bath but come the apocalypse we may not have electricity to run freezers unless we had the foresight to install solar panels. but then my stove is electric so I wouldn't be able to can either. I guess I ought to learn how to grow food better first.ellen abbotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00535475792150335186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2086296370004835655.post-42148528100062497252019-08-17T08:47:08.849-04:002019-08-17T08:47:08.849-04:00Sounds like heaven, all of it.Sounds like heaven, all of it.Colettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13929646037752189809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2086296370004835655.post-1866596941363403412019-08-17T07:37:02.703-04:002019-08-17T07:37:02.703-04:00i love celebrating the mundane with you here. hop...i love celebrating the mundane with you here. hope the boys had a good first week back.<br /><br />xxalainaxxmrs.missalaineushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08542984504965262088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2086296370004835655.post-46317872421213345322019-08-17T04:42:43.727-04:002019-08-17T04:42:43.727-04:00I don't understand how houses become abandoned...I don't understand how houses become abandoned.
