Some people would probably just throw the moldings up, paint the room, shine the floors, and get on with it.
I’ve always been disappointed in the results from those methods but I’ve pressed on in trying to find something that actually works.I’m the only one in my house who eats avocado, so I rarely need to use the whole thing and I hate to waste half of it because avocados are just so.
The other day I was making my lunch and it involved an avocado.I started reading around the interwebs to see if there had been any new developments in this field.Somewhere deep in the comments section of some dark corner of the internet, I saw someone mention that putting a wedge of white onion in with a bowl of guacamole would keep it from going brown.
Something about the sulfuric acid that the onion released.Well, I didn’t have any white onion but I did have some green onion, so I just sliced the white parts of those up and a bit of the green too and put them in a container.. It’s an old sour cream container for the record.
The idea is that you want something airtight.
I left the pit in the half of the avocado that I didn’t use just for good measure and placed it face down on top of the sliced onion so they’d have as much contact as possible.. Then I put the lid on, stuck the whole thing in the fridge, and waited until lunch time the next day.It takes you through the basic step-by-step process and gets you ready to go!.
Here’s a picture of one of the three windows I was working on before, with no cornice and just some 2 inch faux wood blinds..Previously, I had made these rustic burlap valances in the Fall, just for fun.
They were fine for then, but it was time for something a little more polished.Even though we’re not ready to tackle painting the cabinets and replacing the countertops in the kitchen, it’s time to make it feel a little more finished and comfortable..
