The Palace recently read somewhere about another use for vinegar. Now, a while back a dear Palace friend, Jodie (from http://jodiemalodie.blogspot.com/) posted about using vinegar in one's washing machine to prevent static. We here at the palace have tried that - but for some reason perhaps, since we live in the specific palace that we do, we still seem to find our royal wear with a slight static feel - BUT... that being said the royal washers still keep trying this method in part because the royal washers love the sizzle that happens when the vinegar hits the detergent - it seems to just shout CLEAN- and we here at the palace are all about CLEAN!
The Royal Queen went on a hunt one day and came across another use for vinegar most people in the royal kingdom might not know about. Vinegar - as previously stated is a wonderful cleaner. This time the Palace put vinegar in the royal dishwasher paired with a little baking soda. AGAIN, there was an instant SIZZLE which of course, denotes CLEAN. So the royal dishwasher washed those palace dishes with vinegar and baking soda - and LET IT BE KNOWN THROUGH ALL THE KINGDOM... the palace dishes came out clean! The royal cleaners used a one to one ratio of vinegar and baking soda.
The Palace has been doing a little research on the benefits of coconuts and coconut oil. Did you know that coconuts have many wonderful health qualities for your body? The Palace had been adding more olive oil into the palace diet over the last year, but did you know that while Olive oil is GREAT for your heart ,it also actually continues to reside in your body as fat? That's right and NOBODY in the palace is interested in pure fat, so this was a major revelation to the Palace. Coconut oil does not stay within the body as fat and the benefits are wonderful. We just recently have begun our coconut oil venture here at the Palace - but already a difference is noted in cooking, taste, and how our bodies feel! The Royal Family has been using coconut oil in just about everything from - popcorn to hot tea. The Palace began our journey to understanding the benefits of Coconut here: http://www.thenourishinggourmet.com/ -
it is one of the Palace's favorite new sites. Feel free to check it out! Then we went here: http://www.coconut-connections.com/ and http://www.organicfacts.net/organic-oils/organic-coconut-oil/health-benefits-of-coconut-oil.html. We will continue to update you on the Palace's personal waltz through this coconut exploration!
If you don't purchase an Entertainment book for your area - you should. The Palace highly recommends the Entertainment and Gold C books as a way to save money on many of your favorite royal places.
The Palace cleaning staff has recently started using cotton squares for quick clean ups in the royal bathroom. Just one swipe around the sink and faucet and the bathroom is tidy. Sometimes the cleaning staff will put a little cleaner on the cotton square, but mostly the palace uses the squares dry immediately after the queen puts on her makeup, the king shaves, or the royal couple brushes their teeth. The cotton square is just the right size for small simple messes.
Until next time, may your palace be sparkling, may your family be well fed and in good health, and your resources be plentiful, all because you choose to be wise and frugal, for both your family and your palace!
The Princess-i-fied Palace
