I bet you think I quit cleaning since we moved to a smaller house. Well, you're wrong. Cleaning around boxes is harder! So a future post will probably be on the importance of purging-downsizing-throwing your collections of crap away-- but today, just a question:You know that lovely smell of fresh bacon on a saturday morning?
You know how that lovely smell becomes a disgusting one by afternoon?
What DO you do to get rid of it?
I've cleaned every surface and we have NO fabrics in the kitchen-- in all honesty it may not even be MY bacon I'm smelling.How do I get rid of it?!
And for the record Kevin and Francis, I don't care how wonderful you are-- if you make my kitchen smell bad, you have to go!

I have NO idea how to get rid of it. I wish I knew. When you find out, tell me. We just throw open the windows and doors and hope for the best.
ReplyDeleteDid you try baking soda? How about becoming a vegetarian???
ReplyDeleteLove that pic... Yummy!
Other then wiping everything down, I have no clue! Cover the smell up with some fish! =)
ReplyDeleteEasy.
ReplyDelete1. Take a whole lemon.
2. Quarter it lengthwise.
3. Then cut all thosse quarters into halves.
4. You should end up with eight.
5. Get a shot glass.
6. Get some salt.
7. Get some fine tequila - I prefer Patron Silver.
8. Lick the fatty spot on the back of your hand between your thumb and pointer finger.
9. Shake salt on it.
10. Fill the shot glass up with fine tequila.
11. Lick the salt from your hand.
12. Drink the shot of tequila.
13. Suck one of the lemon wedges.
14. REPEAT SIX TIMES.
15. You now have 2 lemon wedges left.
16. Take one wedge and shove it up a nostril.
17. Repeat with the other wedge and the other nostril.
If you're wondering, the tequila is instrumental in allowing you to shove the wedges into your nostrils and think that is a perfectly fine remedy for removing the smell of bacon.
Guaranteed to get rid of the smell of bacon in your house. At least for you, anyway.
As always, here to help,

I've missed your fresh outlook BeG!
ReplyDeleteTara, In Canada? You throw open the windows? Won't you freeze to death?
Cookie, I did think baking soda, but I'm afraid having white powder all over the countertops may bite me in the end.
Instead of bringing out the fish (another cracking idea!), I just cooked up some sausages. OOh, bring on the clogged arteries!
eye candy!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteLet me know what works please!! I need to know! lol
ReplyDeleteLemons. Buy a couple, cut them in half, squeeze the juice into a bowl and leave it one the counter. If there was bacon grease on any surface, use the face of the cut lemon and rub down the counter and stove.
ReplyDeletei know how to fix it, maybe, but it's the grossest thing ever. probably, your vent/fan for your stove needs cleaning. you wouldn't believe how disgusting they get. actually, there's people out there who do it for their job - in my world, it's worth it to pay them. good luck!
