If you ever try it, Nolamel, 1% on the fizz additive, not 2. I think I may have put 2,.
I am a brandy gal ALL the way. I have three of them but don't ask me which for the love of God.
I am GLAD I started EARLY man. I cleaned the master bedroom and bath, the three bedrooms and the corridor connecting everything and MY bathroom.
@FranC says it's her thread, so get ready for some philosophical musings about bathroom cleaning. I am giving you FAIR warning, in case you read on.
There is a certain amount of acceptance that comes with cleaning a bathroom correctly, especially mine. It's TINY, I use that mineral powder stuff because I don't like sunblock and it just evens out your skin tone. I put it on when I am mostly awake. Not to mention the rest of my unguents. I always start with a TON of straight bleach in the bowl and let it sit for two hours, That's the easy part, except my husband bought me a horrible toilet brush that BENDS and I like to use my tools vigorously. So there is always the possibility of getting bleach toilet water on you, FLUNG upon you as it were. It didn't happen today but it HAS and I was not happy.
Then, it is wise to like, spray whatever cleaner on the toilet all surfaces, and also ALL AROUND the base on the floor and tub because MY bathroom is the size of Nolamel's cat pretty much. Remove and clean scale. Then, you must like, kneel before the toilet, and you have to love and thank your toilet for all the dirt it has successfully carried away. You tell it peacefully you understand you cannot expect it to remove ALL waste, as it is not perfect and certainly, neither are you. You look at the toilet and you pray, "I am not going to hurl." It's kind of a giving of thanks delio where you are like, "I'm not hung over, I am just cleaning." It is also a prayer of hope that you do not encounter our touch anything TOO awful, at least with your knowledge, and that your snus is not too strong.
Then, you need a bunch of, well I use Kaboom and simple green and TWO types of sponges and about 6 or 7 bar mops. I know how to clean a toilet. Then, I clean it, the floor around it, and all the side of the tub and the floor THERE too, because there is no way to like, vacuum that area and also, you need a TON more elbow grease. Items I use include hair gel, hair WAX (taming grey heir sucks) retin A, rubbing alcohol, that annoying like, POWDER that flies every where and um, soap and bleach and I also have hair that falls out a lot, like to the point I wonder if I will go bald but like, I DON'T it seems so I don't worry about it except that all of these agents TOGETHER create this sort of very sticky, very annoying MESS when bits get on the floor. It happens. There is a lot of scraping hair off the sponge so it will actually scrub again, and this is why I have 2 sponges, one industrial for the damn FLOOR. At least there is not a LOT of floor, but it means MORE gunk per square inch. Occasionally, there will be a dead roach although that is not happening much since my last Raid perimeter but there were a COUPLE and one was stuck in the crack of the toilet and like, well, it wasn't good prying it out. I felt its body and all it's little legs detach but my prayer held UP. Dood. Then you sort of have to RISE UP (both mentally AND physically) and like go get ALL new cleaning supplies and look at your rags to see if they require burning or like you can put them on the "toilet rag" pile for reuse.
It's really fortifying. In any case, then you return and clean the sink and it's not nearly as bad but really, the sink also requires mental fortitude because you know you will organize it lovingly for like 2 days and then mess will begin to occur. It's hard. And sinks have all these hidden crevices and places where they trap dirt so sometimes you have to use a toothbrush (AN OLD ONE) and stuff. And there is more hair and you are like, "This sucks" as you get it all out of your hairbrush.
Then, you want to like, just MOP and go DIE quietly on the couch but you can't because some of the floor has wetness from cleaning. So you have to go clean and dust two rooms which THANKFULLY one is the husband's beautiful mind room of his own so you do not venture far. The other is the "spare" room and you think "I wish I lived in a smaller HOUSE because you DO go in there, and wherever you go, dirt happens, dude, so like you clean that up ALSO.
I went NUT JOB man. I vacuumed my chaise longue which I had to have but never use it was all dusty and like then I CLEANED bits of it with simple green and a sponge, and I organized Everything and washed the bedding.
I must love my husband a LOT because like, holy goodness did my room to room thing backfire. I totally over focused on every room like DUSTING and polishing wood stuff and MAN only the kitchen and the living room left.
Normally I'd be like, "No sweat" but I am FRIED. This was so much easier when I did this for OTHER people for money. I've cleaned houses way grosser than mine except for the coffee, honestly, but I could think "These people are pigs" not, "Anna, you are a pig."
Oh well husband gonna be happy man there is nothing he loves more than when I organize the house like I am bat nuts crazy (it's also easier to clean when manic but I am not manic today) but he is going to be all relaxed and happy and chill..
I refuse to clean the fridge though. IT IS NOT HAPPENING. I got him his own unopened gallon of milk he will just have to be happy with that. I am resting for an hour, taking more Advil and FINISHING. GOD.

!!! Perhaps this time I will make a rough note of the “recipe”. I wanted to come up with a brandy alexander too. May have to revisit that idea after the holidays
