WHAT IS CITRIC ACID
“My opinion...is that this “citric acid” is the basis of cancer. When my dad got cancer I learned many facts…go look up SV40. Also, most cancer starts as candida then turns into cancer...so It is introduced to the body as black mold, turns to candida...then to cancer. Well what I learned is that there are virus & other “things” in the vaccines besides the main active ingredients (that’s where the SV40 comes in). Anyways, citric acid appears to be the mold that starts it.”
“When the words "citric acid" appear on a ingredient list, many believe it comes from limes / lemons. The truth is citric acid is poison & comes from genetically modified black mold. Hiding known toxins in food for the masses to consume is actually a form of spiritual warfare carried out by evil forces in a direct attempt to lower the population's vitality & natural vibrational frequency.”

Each individual grain of citric acid in the bag I use for laundry was alive and sentient. The ones set aside for cooking weren’t because they weren’t in the bag, but there was no way to tell between the two.

Straight citric acid is a severely underrated snack, as are lemon slices (eat them like orange slices).
If straight citric acid is too much (like most beginners), try mixing it with sugar and putting it into a drink. Be wary though, all of these will dissolve your teeth if you’re not careful when eating them.

Ice dyeing is a fun way to create colorful patterns on fiber using natural color. Freezing fresh or exhaust dyes into ice cubes welcomes a diffused watercolor palette. Adding a layer of dried dye flowers to the frozen mix will invite punches of vivid hues on top. The combination is a lovely way to create tie dye effects to your favorite textiles. Plus, with the help of some common household products, colors can be shifted to expand the rainbow of hues. This tutorial will show you how to ice dye with frozen exhaust dyes & dried flowers, shift color with pH modifiers as well as the resulting effect on cotton.

No More Frozen
Fanfic Advent Calendar 2022 - Day 12
Tumblr media
Sherlock x Reader One-Shot
Read it on AO3!
Rating: E
Words: 791
Summary: Tis the season and reader wants to go do the Christmas shopping. However, Sherlock is too wrapped up in a case. But she knows just how to deal with that.
Prompt: "Do you wanna build a sno-" "Don't you dare finish that!" "Do you wanna build a snowman?" "NO MORE FROZEN!"
Warnings: unprotected sex, choking kink (mild), light dom/sub kink, Frozen
“Take a break, Sherlock,” (y/n) said, placing a steaming cup of cocoa next to him.
He said nothing.  Just picked up the mug and took a careful sip without looking away from one of several dozens of books currently scattered around the flat.
(Y/N) rolled her eyes.  “Sherlock, we have Christmas shopping to do tomorrow.  Enough with this ridiculous case! It’s just some kid not getting the attention they need at home. Those ‘riddles’ are hollow and meaningless and you bloody well know it.  It wouldn’t take you ten minutes of looking through forums to find the kid and the stolen decorations.”
He pretended not to hear her.  She was right, but he did not want to admit it.  Cases were surprisingly slow for this time of year.  He did not want to solve this one and be left with nothing to keep his mind distracted from the holiday merriment. 
Why must even crime be so boring?
Sherlock stole a glance at his girlfriend while her back was turned.  She would be good for alleviating his boredom.  But not now.  That would require him to admit that she was right and he refused to do so after being so stubborn about finishing this truly mundane case.  No, he would need to solve the case his way before caving into his desires for her.
But (y/n) was tired of waiting.  And playing nice.
Snatching up a wine bottle, she brought it to her lips like a microphone.  “Do you wanna build a snowman?”
Sherlock stiffened.  “No! Don’t you dare finish that!  I’ve had enough of that incessant film for ten Christmases!”
“Do you wanna build a snowman?” she sang again -- louder -- holding her hand out to him dramatically.
“NO MORE FROZEN!” he yelled, massaging his temples. 
(Y/N) dropped to her knees and threw her arms around him.  “It doesn’t have to be a snowman!”
He grabbed her wrists and pulled her on her back into his lap.
“Madam,” he growled as she giggled, “you’re breaking my concentration.”
She bit her lip with a grin.  “Yes…. Whatcha gonna do about it?”
His body language shifted at her words.  He knew what she wanted already.  This woman was never subtle when she wanted to fuck.  But this?  That glint in her eye.
The teasing. The challenge. 
Sherlock’s hand snaked over her body, her breasts, her throat.  He gripped it, not choking.  Just firm enough to assert his control and drive the little minx in his lap wild.  Her throat hummed against his fingers as she moaned and bit her bottom lip.
He claimed her lips.  His tongue found hers.  Her fingers locked in his curls.  His free hand gripped her thigh as he shifted them both to the floor and got between her legs.
But not once did he let go of her throat.
“Sherlock,” (y/n) moaned between kisses.  She quickly unzipped his trousers, pushing them and his boxers down just enough to free his hard cock.  “Take me, Sherlock!”
Lifting the skirt of her dress, he moved her panties aside and easily slid inside her dripping pussy.  He moaned at the combined feeling of her walls holding his length and her grip on his hair tightening when he brushed over her inner sensitive spot.
“Make me yours,” she begged as he began thrusting.
His grip on her throat tightened just enough to emphasize his words.  “You’re already mine, little minx.”
Their bodies writhed together in harmonized pleasure.  Chasing that high of ecstasy without rushing the adventure.  Kisses and nips found every reachable inch of skin.  Hands wandered, squeezed, and teased.
Except one.
She giggled when he traced his tongue around the hand on his throat.
“You like that?” he teased, damn well knowing the answer from the way her pussy fluttered and clenched on his cock. 
“Mmm yes!”
Feeling her orgasm rise, she wrapped her legs around his waist.  He sped up his pace. 
He buried his face in her neck, moaning in her ear.  She screamed his name, back arching off the floor.  A few more thrusts took them through their climaxes.
After a few moments, Sherlock pulled away and brought her back in his lap -- sitting up this time.
“Are you through singing awful kids’ music?” he asked, one eyebrow raised.
(Y/N) laughed.  “Are you done with this child’s play case?”
He looked down at her rumpled dress.  “Do I get more of this in exchange for closing the case?”
She draped her arms around his neck and leaned forward to whisper in his ear, “What do you think?”  She nipped at his earlobe before tracing kisses over his jaw to his lips.
He slammed his laptop shut as his cock hardened once more. “Done.”

mint yerba mate syrup recipe
ingredients
2 heaping tbsp yerba mate loose leaf
1 cup sugar
¼ tsp citric acid powder (or to taste)
2 cups boiling water
1 bunch of fresh whole mint leaves
tools
medium saucepan
container that can handle hot liquids (bonus points if it has measuring lines on the side)
measuring tools
sieve fine enough for your tea leaves
stirring spoon
muddler (spoon handle works)
funnel
serving bottle
recipe
Add your yerba mate leaves and 1 cup of water to a sauce pan.
Snap a photo to note the fluid level on the wall of the sauce pan.
Add the second cup of water to the saucepan
Boil down your tisane until it is back to the level you photographed in step 2
Strain your tisane into a heat proof container to check it's one cup and to remove the used yerba mate leaves, then return your tisane to the empty saucepan and put it on medium heat
Add 1 cup sugar and ¼ teaspoon citric acid powder to the saucepan
Simmer and stir until no grit remains
Gently bruise mint leaves in a heat-proof container
Pour hot syrup in, onto the bruised mint
Cool on counter for 30 mins
Funnel into serving bottle, stuff the mint in there too
Refrigerate
Notes & Trivia
I found the citric acid at Walmart in the canning section next to the shelf liners and mason jars.
Guayaki shreds their yerba mate loose leaf kinda fine, so I used a nut milk bag to strain the leaves out. I wish I could find whole leaves. If you know a good yerba mate leaf to order, Please Let Me Know.
This was my effort to hack the mint Guayaki yerba-mate flavor that gets sold at Kroger in cans. I've been mixing the syrup with carbonated water and am very happy with the results!

How to make a homemade laundry detergent for a sustainable home
DIY: How to Make a Homemade Laundry Detergent for a Sustainable Home
Laundry detergent is an essential item in any home, but there are many questions about the best type of detergent to use and whether it’s possible to make a sustainable choice.
In this article, we’ll explain the basics of laundry detergent and why it’s important for a sustainable home. We’ll also provide step-by-step instructions for making a homemade laundry detergent that is both effective and eco-friendly.
What is Laundry Detergent?
Laundry detergent is a cleaning agent that is used to wash fabrics and other items. It usually contains surfactants, enzymes, and other chemicals that help to break down dirt and stains. Different types of detergent are used for different types of fabrics, so it’s important to choose the right one for your needs.
Why is it Important for a Sustainable Home?
When it comes to sustainability, laundry detergent is an important factor. Many store-bought detergents contain harsh chemicals that can be harmful to the environment. These chemicals can end up in our water supply, which can have a negative impact on wildlife and human health.
Using a natural, eco-friendly detergent is one of the best ways to reduce your carbon footprint and make your home more sustainable. Plus, it’s much better for your skin and clothing!
Step-by-Step Guide to Making a Homemade Laundry Detergent
Making your own detergent is easy and cost-effective. Here’s how to do it:
Ingredients
2 cups of baking soda
2 cups of washing soda
1/2 cup of citric acid
1/2 cup of salt
Essential oils (optional)
Instructions
In a large bowl, mix together the baking soda, washing soda, citric acid, and salt.
If desired, add a few drops of essential oils for a pleasant scent.
Transfer the mixture to an airtight container and store it in a cool, dry place.
To use, add one tablespoon of detergent to a full load of laundry.
Tips for Using Your Homemade Detergent
For best results, use warm or hot water.
To boost cleaning power, add a half-cup of white vinegar to the rinse cycle.
For extra-tough stains, let the garment soak in a solution of equal parts water and laundry detergent for 30 minutes before washing.
For a fabric softener, add one cup of white vinegar to the rinse cycle.
Final Thoughts
Making your own laundry detergent is a great way to reduce your carbon footprint and make your home more sustainable. Plus, it’s cost-effective and easy to do.
By following the steps above, you can make a homemade laundry detergent that is both effective and eco-friendly. So, why not give it a try today?

My disappointment is immeasurable, and my day is ruined.
Tumblr media
Key lime pie is my favorite dessert, so my boss got me a little box of artisinal key lime candies for Christmas, but they don't even taste even remotely like candy. They're acrid and chemically, and they coat your tongue. They're like cough drops without the menthol.
Lemon pledge.
They taste like lemon pledge wood polish; if you've ever sprayed a table and some of the aerosol wafted into your mouth, then you know exactly what these candies taste like. It's less a flavor, per se, and more a very strong scent that you feel way in the back of your throat.
It's like the sour apple spray vets use to keep pets from biting furniture, or the bitterant they coat switch cartridges with so little kids won't put them in their mouths.
If you gave this to me blindfolded, I would not immediately assume this was meant to be eaten; this is not an inviting flavor. Maybe it's just a bad batch, but the box has contact info on it and I feel the need to be that bitch and let somebody know what I think.

Okay, I’ve been hearing a lot of shit go around about the citric acid thing, and I was kind of really doubting it. It just seems like the type of misinformation that could easily spread around this website and a bunch of others, especially with how limited serious study on ADHD has been.
Basically, the idea goes like this: citric acid can reduce the effectiveness of stimulant-based ADHD medications like Adderall if consumed when the drug is most active, especially right after use. I’m pretty sure the reasoning was something like interfering with absorption?
I also saw a couple posts trying to debunk this, including a few that pointed to grapefruits specifically as the source of the rumor thanks to a largely individual enzyme they had which can do the interfering, but would leave other citrus fruits fine to consume.
What I didn’t expect was such visceral evidence in the theories’ favor today. I take my Adderall, I go get breakfast, then I go to class. At breakfast, I had two large glasses of this amazing raspberry lemonade they have here, which is so full of citric acid that it literally burns my throat after about the amount that I drank. So, I go to class like normal, clueless, and in my second fucking period of the day I can feel the fogginess and drain in my energy that comes with the medication ending. This only gets worse as time goes on, until the stuttering crash is in full swing, thankfully now that classes are over.
This isn’t necessarily confirmation of the theory, there always could have been some other cause; it is shark week for me and it also could be psychosomatic. But I would not be fucking surprised if this thing ended up being confirmed. I’m not gonna have any fucking lemonade in the mornings for a while, either way.
