Cleaning hacks you wish you knew earlier


Hey all and welcome back again to my new thread.

Today i m back with some cleaning hacks that works just as magic and many of us never knew before. Or even didn't trust the effectiveness of each.

You do love cleaning or you just like tidying things up this hacks will make your life easier and more fun.


- How to clean your computer safely:

To clean your keyboard, pour some white vinegar on a microfiber cloth and scrub the keyboard thoroughly. 
Use a cotton swab soaked in vinegar to clean areas that need more attention.
To clean your screen, take a microfiber cloth and wipe gently in a circular motion.
Apply a mixture of light water and vinegar if necessary.

Do always remember to avoid this products in cleaning your computer:

 Acetone, Ethyl alcohol, Toluene, Ethyl acid, Ammonia, Methyl chloride.


- Chopping Board clean with no chemicals? this is how you do it:

Use Kosher salt and lemons to clean your chopping board without leaving any chemicals. and rinse with warm water.

- Greasy Stains on your walls? tell me about it:

All you need is White Chalk & a Cloth & some water to remove greasy fingerprints and other oily stains from your walls, just cover the stains with white chalk – wait a few minutes and then wipe the chalk away with a damp cloth.

- Clean cloudy glasses with vinegar:

Just use a paper towel and a small amount of vinegar to get your windows glass / mirrors look clean and perfect again!

- Blenders:

If you hate this part like me, then do this: fill the blender with warm water and a drop of dish soap. Turn it on and let it go for a few seconds. Then rinse it with warm water and Voila! Clean and ready for another juicy go.

- Use toothpaste to clean sneakers:

Toothpaste can be used not only to brush your teeth with but also to clean your sneakers. All you need is an old toothbrush and a little toothpaste to get your sneakers looking like new again! 

-Wedding ring:

You don't need to visit the jewelry shop again. Mix some baking soda with water to get a paste, or use some toothpaste, and you are done. Clean and shiny!

- Kitchen/Bathroom cabinet gunk:

Mix a solution of vegetable oil and baking soda, and then use an old toothbrush to scrub all that gunky stuff out of the corners of cabinet surfaces!

-Baking Soda to clean your couch:

That easy! if you have a lingering smell or Fabric stains just brush the surface of your sofa then sprinkle baking soda over the the designated area, leave it for 15 to 20 min and then vacuum.

- Is your dish washing sponge clean?

Here we go, sponges cleans up all the dirt from everything, so don't think its clean coz its the dish soap's friend. If left in the sink, the sponge can pick up a huge amount of bacteria, so here what you have to do: pop it in the microwave for 30 seconds to remove any bacteria and then rinse it in some vinegar.

- Easy way to clean your Microwave:

For an easy and fresh cleaning, add an amounts of water, vinegar & lemon in a microwave-safe bowl, set it on for 5 to 10 minutes. wait for it a little while and then wipe down the inside of the microwave with a cloth. 

 -Shower head:

You only need to pour some white vinegar in a white plastic bag and fit it over the shower head, secure it with a rubber band and let it soak for an hour. Remove the bag and just wipe with a cloth.

-Make up Brushes:

Your make up brushes need a little care too, clean them up with some baby gentle shampoo. Once rinsed, make sure you hang them up to dry properly.

 -Front loading washing machine:

Mix some vinegar with the baking soda and use your sponge to clean the inside nicely.
Keep cleaning and i ll be back soon with another topic.



I hope this is useful for many of you. 

Bye for now lovelies & i ll be back later with a new entry.

Moroccan cuisine is known to be rich and influenced by the Andalusian Spain, Arabia and France civilization that is presented in a delicious combination of mouthwatering flavors.

The list is too long believe me but I m going to precise 10 dishes that is a most try and is available all the time.

My number one and all time favorite soup Harira: 

Harira soup is the daily plate in Ramadan to break the fast, a plate rich with Tomatoes, lentils, chickpeas and lamb, adding to it a squeeze of lemon juice and some shopped coriander at the time of serving. It Can be found in all Moroccan houses during the holy month of Ramadan specially, as well as during the normal days of the year for diners.

fish a la Marocaine (shermoula):

With its long Atlantic and Mediterranean coasts, Morocco boasts a rich array of fish dishes. Shermoula is the combination of herbs and spices and lemon used to marinate the fish before frying, grilling or cooking in the oven.



Couscous:

Couscous or as we say in Darija 'Seksou' is a fine wheat pasta traditionally rolled by hand. It is steamed over a stew of meat and vegetables. To serve, the meat is covered by a pyramid of couscous, the vegetables & the chickpeas are placed around it. 



Zaalouk:

Zaalook is a Moroccan salad of cooked auberigine and tomatoes, seasoned with garlic, paprika, cumin and a little chili powder.



Maakouda:

 Maakouda is a sort of Moroccan potato beignet usually eaten as an appetizer, a side or as a filling in a crusty sandwich delicious dipped into spicy harissa sauce.




Pastilla:

Pastilla is a traditional Andalusian dish consumed in countries of the Maghreb. Andalusian people who migrated to Fez have popularized the dish throughout Morocco. It has also spread recently to Algeria and Tunisia.It is a pie which combines sweet and salty flavors; a combination of crisp layers of the crepe-like werqa dough (a thinner cousin of phyllodough), savory meat slow-cooked, in broth and spices or chicken and also fish, and then shredded, and a crunchy layer of toasted and ground almonds, cinnamon, and sugar.

The 10 Best things I love about Morocco

Hey ya All, Back with a list of my 10 best thing I love about Morocco.

Here you go and enjoy it.


1 The hospitality:

You do find it everywhere and it is different in every corner in this world, but here in Morocco is so different. You can’t pass by your neighbors without stopping you to ask about yourself and all your family.Each house you entered it is a must to eat and drink, if not for a meal then at least for tea « atay » and bread.......You don’t get to disappear without getting noticed.And if you need help at anytime, anywhere you will definitely find it.


2 The famous Atay:

Hospitality can’t be completed without serving Moroccan tea which is a green tea with mint and sugar actually a lot of sugar? If it’s not sweet then it’s not Atay.This is the daily drink that you find in all Moroccan houses all the time either for breakfast after lunch before diner or even after diner. Not to forget your guests can’t leave without even having a cup of tea.Atay can be served to cool off on a hot summer day or stay warm on a cold winter night. 

3. Khobz—Bread:

There are so many types of khobz in Morocco, basic khobz (white bread), khobz dyal zraa (wheat bread), khobz dyal smida (semolina bread), khobz belboula (barley bread), batbout (pita bread equivalent), harsha (corn bread), msemen(square crepe), meloui (circle crepe) and baghrir (pancake).Moroccans are known of making their own bread at home. Khobz accompany all the meals served during the day. And it can be eaten plain specially when coming out straight from the oven.



4. Eating with your hands:

We have a famous saying “nothing can make you feel full other then ur own hand” So basically khobz or your right hand is your eating utensil.
And what’s better then that. You get to enjoy the most of your food better then any spoon or fork.

5. Eating from a communal plate:

You will find many plates in the table but not empty ones. Usually you will find the main dish in a big plate in the middle of the table and the side dishes around it, and we all eat from the same plate of course each one eat from his front section as per the Moroccan eating manners.
This just keeps the family members connected and no place for the smart phones attacks while eating.


6. The sun:


One of the best things in Morocco.
I remember my childhood where we used to sleep under the shining sun for some Vitamin D and some peaceful time, it’s a like a mood booster soooo energizing and refreshing after the cold winters.

7. Moroccan dancing:

And specially the folklore.
Each region in Morocco is known of its special and really different styles from north to south. 
The Diversity known in this country can’t be found anywhere else other then Morocco.


8. Tangerines:

The tangerines in Morocco are the best You ll ever taste! You do eat them like candies! The name originally comes from the city Tangier. They are most widely grown in Tangier, Oujda and Agadir, and are available during the autumn and spring.The one could eat as many as he can during the day and not even get enough. Didn’t taste anything like it there anywhere else.


9. Moroccan Weddings:

One of the best, joyful, tiring and yet unforgettable experience ever. Usually it used to take over 7 nights for a wedding that’s s been shortened for 2 nights now a days of celebrations.And I just love everything about Moroccan weddings from preparations to first night of Henna for the bride to the reception party with its music, dresses changing of the bride who can change her dress for at-least 5 times in one night and the atmosphere and the blessings of the families.




10. Landscapes:

The natural landscapes of Morocco are breathtaking! There is so much diversity too. You find the sea, the rivers, the waterfalls, the mountains covered with the snow, and the desert with many camels walking through. 



From north to south Morocco is definitely a great place to visit.
