He heard my daughter, his wife, say I need baking soda, meaning a small box for the fridge. He just went to Costco and now I'm the proud parent of a bouncing bag of baking soda, birth weight 13.5 lbs., plus two 50-count bottles of Pepsid because he heard the latest rumors about it being used against the virus.
I suppose it could be worse, and I'm grateful. I'll adopt the baby out (donate) and buy myself a little box. 😜

Hot water down drain, baking soda, vinegar. It will create a cool volcano if you have kids.

My husband got us the 2 pound box of baking soda, and my kitchen drain is kinda stinky.

I let it sit for a few minutes while I boil water in the tea kettle, then pour water down to clear. I don't measure, but I am sure there are instructions out on the intertubes.

I hope I'm never too old to enjoy a sink volcano.
