Hamburger as a Midnight Snack

Yeah, it is midnight at our end, and my stomach is asking for something I could devour quickly. My son is sleeping here in my bedroom, and as much as possible; I don't want him to hear me eating in the middle of the night. I want a hamburger, but I don't want to go out alone just to buy a hamburger at the closest fast-food chain. Jollibee is the closest and they are open 24 hours, but I have to take a tricycle ride which I don't like. I checked the fridge and I have patty, lettuce, cheese, mayonnaise, but I don't have bread. I have avocado, but I don't have condensed milk. Oh! geez, I don't like to put some sugar on the avocado. I guess, I will just drink the mango juice. That's the only drink I have in the fridge.

How to Remove Toilet stains

I have been looking for a toilet stain remover at the supermarket a couple of days now, but I have no idea which one is really effective. I have tried Domex, Greenex, and more, but they couldn't remove the brownish or yellowish rings around and on the bottom of the toilet bowl. And so, I decided to search on Google, and here’s what I have found.

Vinegar

I haven’t tried it yet, but it says that you just place three cups of vinegar into the bowl, leave for at least 2 to 3 minutes, and then scrub the stains with a toilet brush. You can also put the vinegar on a spray bottle, and spray it directly to the stains. Be sure you drain the water on the toilet bowl.

Bleach

I am not sure of what kind of bleach this is, but it says that it is a very strong cleaning agent. You just have to put a half cup of dry bleach powder directly to the toilet bowl and let it sit there for hours. If we could see the stains have disappeared, then flush away the bleach.

Borax Powder

Honestly, I have no idea about this Borax powder, but it says we can buy this in a hardware store and not in a supermarket. You just have to sprinkle the powder directly to the stains and scrub the stains with a toilet brush. Be sure that the bottom of the bowl has not water. So, drain it first before sprinkling the Borax powder.

I guess, I will try the vinegar first, and if ever the stains remain, I will try the bleach. I really hate to see the stains on the toilet bowl. I wish the vinegar really works for the removing toilet bowl stains.

Visited the Salon Yesterday

Finally, I was able to visit my favorite salon yesterday and had my pedicure done after two weeks of being occupied from my offline tasks. I was supposed to clean my own toes, but when I checked my nail polish, there were bubbles on it, so I decided to go out of the house and visit the salon. Fortunately, my “suki” (favorite manicurist) was free, and she cleaned my toe nails right away with a foot massage afterwards. Anyway, if you have a problem with your nails, here are some solutions that might help you to bring back the life of your nails.

Weak Nails
Buffing the nail is the secret of top manicurists for building nail strength. The massaging action not only smoothes and shine nails, it also strengthens them by increasing blood flow to this matrix, where nail growth begins.

White Spots On Nails
Add zinc to your diet with zinc supplements or zinc-rich foods like eggs, milk, and liver.

Nail Fungus
Thickened, discolored nails sometimes indicate the presence of a fungus. The recommended treatment is to look for anti-fungal products containing benzalkonium chloride. By the way, my manicurist said, to keep polish from bubbling up on nails, don’t shake it. Turn bottle upside down and roll gently between hands.
