Men vs Women and a Dirty......

Has anyone had the misfortune of having a guy workout/diet with you? It has to be one of the most deflating experiences I have ever come across in my life... EVERY TIME! Here's why in a nutshell. My husband was overweight = I was overweight
My husband starts a new job = I start a workout
My husband starts eating like me regularly = I cut back even further than usual
My husband loses 40 POUNDS! = I lose 10
What is that?!?!?! He says that he gains it faster than I do. Excuse me.... (Sorry honey if you're reading this) I DON'T CARE!! If I could take it off that fast I wouldn't mind being a fatty over Christmas!!! Don't give me that crap. My fat has taken up residence like a bunch a hillbilly squatters. SMH

Now I bet some of you started reading this because you saw men vs women and the word dirty mixed in there. For those of you that did....HA HA! Gotcha you filthy bastards! LOL The "dirty" thing we are going to be tackling is my oven!
Oven cleaners are one of the most toxic horrible cleaning products that you can purchase. I have been wondering for quite a while what I could possibly use to clean my oven that works without using the traditional cleaners. You will not believe it, but the best oven cleaner is already in your house. Baking soda and peroxide. I forgot to take pictures of the process so I recreated it with an awful 6 year old baking sheet that I have. Note that the baking sheet is one of the "dark" ones to begin with, but I used dishwashing liquid and I SCRUBBED this pan before I started so it could be as clean as I could possibly  get it to demonstrate my point.

I started by spraying the pan with the peroxide. Shake on a layer of baking soda and one more spritz on top for good measure

I went about my business and came back in about an hour and wiped it with a sponge. LOOK AT THAT! This was AFTER I scrubbed it! It worked just like this in the oven. You're still going to need some elbow grease for tough spots but it definitely works well. I would recommend doing it right before you go to bed and tackle it in the morning. Just make sure you use enough peroxide. Goodbye harmful chemicals and turning on the self cleaner (which by the way releases toxic chemicals into the air because of high temps and the oven coating) YUCK!
Just when you thought my blog had taken a turn for the soap opera lane, I'm back with something useful! Now go clean your nasty ovens this weekend!

Stay healthy my friends!
