TH Tip: Unclogging the Drain

At the beginning of the year, John gave us tips on how not to clog your drain. Unfortunately, we admit, a clogged drain sometimes just happens and it's usually in the shower or sink. Next time you reach for the Dran-O, use this easy tip: Pour a cup of baking soda, followed by a cup of white vinegar, down the drain. Plug the opening with an old rag or a stopper and let it bubble away. After a few minutes, rinse with hot water and repeat if necessary. A great alternative to those harsh chemicals! Via ::body+soul
