I make my list AFTER the work is done. I list everything I did and THEN I scratch it all out. So much more satisfying than seeing things left that I've neglected to do or run out of time! No self recriminations for me!!!! Enjoy the celebrations of guests.

Carlos, just a suggestion. Watch some of your videos. Your face gets a very upset look on it when Arnie speaks. As a speech therapist, I am very attuned to body language. I realize you want to talk but, we find it upsetting to watch you when you do that.

I grew up in Switzerland from 1954 to 1995. That’s when I moved to New Mexico, USA. Meanwhile the global warming brought the temps up to 37º C for today.Will expect some days with 40ºC and over. I love it around 20-25ºC max. - like you -love to wear my hand knit sweaters. Here I have only a window of about 4 month to do that. But will not complain, as I love New Mexico!! (Live here now for 28 years!)

I, too, used to use the soap/crumpled newspaper for windows, Arne. Somewhere several years back, at least in the US, newspapers changed the ink that was used, and it didn't shine up the windows, etc. So, I went over to the commercial spray cleaner in the bottles. Oh, well. Memories, I guess.
@foleyjp1 Жыл бұрын
My best cleaning tip for the window sills and especially the ones that have tracks for the screens, is to sprinkle them with baking soda. Then put some white vinegar into a spray bottle. Spray the vinegar onto the baking soda. it will foam up loosening the dirt and allowing you to just wip it clean. Great for cleaning many hard to reach places like bathrooms, and corners of floors etc. Have fun at your birthday- house party.

I love the sass, "You're a guest in our kitchen. Our kitchen, our rules." 😂 But yes, when I first started watching your videos I didn't understand that the "arguing" back and forth between you two is how you play. Now I think it's hilarious because I know no one is getting their feelings hurt. It's just a difference in cultures I think but if someone isn't used to it it can come off as being mean. Anyway, I love you both! Thanks for posting yet another fun and entertaining video. 💛 With love from Central United States.

Window washing tip, as you said, tepid water, a couple of drops of dish washing liquid &&& a couple of teaspoons of white vinegar. Soft cloth to wash the window, in sections, then use a squidgy to dry the window, using a dry cloth to wipe the squidgy dry after every swipe. Have a great weekend with the family. Happy Bday, Arne.

It’s been a little struggle because for 50 yes I did the American way that I was taught. Your Norwegian way is much easier on the wrists that I agree. Thank You both for all you do for us.

Window washing solution suggestion: water, few drops of dish liquid as you mentioned, and vinegar (amount not too critical) - the vinegar helps cut grease on windows - then just use a squeegee to 'dry' the window - works a treat (I have a lot of large windows and I've found that the fastest way - no buffing/drying with a cloth, although I do have a cloth to wipe off bits here and there). Hope you had a great time with your visitors!

I am like you in that 7072 at the most is my favorite temperature and here I am in New Mexico and we have been having very warm weather. I just live in an apartment nowadays so I don't have to be out working in it which I am grateful for. I keep my plants watered on my Lanai and that's all I have to do outside.

Oh yes, i love that gingham in the hexagon configuration, stunning! Cant wait for you to be filming quilt videos. I make quilts but dont knit, so this will be a bonus for me! You can always use the darker one to make a smaller piece for the table, etc. Yes, Carlos, I love the white/light color as well. You could always use the darker ones for the back of the quilt. I didnt realize you had a cruise with Kate and quilting! That is exciting!

30⁰C. here in Kansas today. Pretty normal for this time of year. Wheat harvest is going strong and I enjoy watching the big trucks haul wheat past my house. Many of these drivers have windows down as they don't use AC in their big trucks. I, on the other hand, am enjoying the AC and my sewing.

Our house before the last one was built on a bare lot. I told my husband it looked like a scab on the land. Over the years, we added more than 75 trees. When the leaves were out, the house disappeared from the road. It was wonderful. We moved eight years ago, and the first thing the new owners did was to cut down all but about eight trees. I was devastated! And, I completely agree with you, Carlos! 90 degrees is way too hot. I just melt! We are dealing with smoke from the wildfires in Canada. Have a fabulous dinner party! I'm sure your guests will love every moment!!

Hi Arne & Carlos! The traditional way to wash windows is with a mixture of hot water and clear vinegar. Since vinegar is acidic, it cuts through grime. It also doesn't streak. I learned this from my grandmothers. My ultra clean mother-in-law cleaned her windows this way. Her windows were always clear & spotless. By the way, I'm north of New York City & the weather has been very hot and humid. Also, we've been suffering from the smoke coming down from the Canadian fires. The pollen has been extreme since April. I sympathize with Carlos...I suffer from allergies, too! Stay well & happy knitting!

I enjoy your videos very much, became a member a few minutes ago 🙂 my partner‘s mom is from Norway and I cannot wait to get back there hopefully soon. Just watching you in your garden reminds me so much of our vacation last year 🥰 I am very much into knitting, crocheting and sewing most of my life, unfortunately due to work I am not half as fast with my projects as new ideas come into my mind 🤣 you are an inspiration 🙂 oh… and for the window cleaning: I learnt that it is best to use either newspaper or leather cloths, but also using luke warm water with two drops of fabric softener. Since I don‘t use that at all, I am also sticking to dish soap. And also cleaning windows when it is rather cloudy.
@ClaireWhoMakesThings Жыл бұрын
I hope all goes well with your guests and BBQ boys. Good luck cleaning the windows. I find a scrim cloth (Scrim klut) is a good final thing to use on windows. First warm water, with a little washing up liquid, with sponge (Svamp) then get off excess water with a window blade, (vindusblad) then use the Scrim klut/cloth. My dad is in his early 7O’s and has a window cleaning company, he uses traditional method’s which his customers prefer.
