Vinegar!

I have a healthy obsession lately with vinegar. I love it! I use it for everything! I know everyone out there wants to know what they can use vinegar for, right? So I'm here to get you started! Here are a few of the thousands of things vinegar is good for:

1. Use it to make your own fabric refresher (recipe in an earlier post).
2. Use it to make your own fabric softener (recipe in an earlier post).
3. Use it to mop the floor with - it works great, gets out smells, even pet stains and smells.
4. Use it alone as fabric softer in your washing machine...it will also stop lint from sticking to your clothes later!
5. Use it to clean your windows AND window blinds!
6. Use it with baking soda to unclog drains.
7. Use it alone, in a small cup or bowl to get rid of smoky odors in any room.
8. Vinegar washes away mildew! Yes - it really does!
9. Vinegar helps take of stickers and the sticky residue from them - even bumper stickers.
10. You should always use vinegar to clean the inside of your fridge as it also deodorizes it.
11. Run a mix of vinegar and water through your coffee maker (use a filter) to clean it out!
12. Apple cider vinegar is a great way to get rid of bugs - like those pesky little fruit flies and gnats. They love it. Put some in a shallow bowl and they'll fly right in and drown!
13. Use vinegar to clean in the bathroom, it even cleans and deodorizes the toilet bowl.
14. Dab a little onto bug bites to stop the itching.
15. Pat vinegar on sunburns to stop the pain - you can even put it onto small cuts as an antiseptic. (who knew?)
16. Clean your hot iron with vinegar to remove burned on grime.
17. Did you know that you can spray your dogs and horses coat with vinegar and brush to make them shine?
18. I didn't know this and its a new trick I just learned. But you can actually kill fleas if you add just a tad of vinegar to your dog's drinking water!
19. Of course everyone knows that you can soak and wash your fruits and vegetables with vinegar and water! 
20. I've updated to add this one! Use vinegar in the "rinse agent" dispenser inside your dishwasher! A friend turned me onto this recently. I tried it and my silverware is SO SHINY! I'm hooked! I will never buy rinse agents again!

I'll probably add more later...there are literally thousands more!
