Bathroom Ventilation 101

Out of all the rooms in your home, your bathroom holds the most moisture. Everyday personal care tasks completed in the shower and at the sink are centered on water. With all that water use, it’s easy to accumulate excess moisture in the air. And while a steamy shower may be the absolute best way to freshen up after a long day, but in a poorly ventilated bathroom, it’s the worst thing you can do for the room and your well being.

Get Back to Bathroom Routines

Summertime comes with slower mornings and fewer responsibilities. But just because the school year requires an earlier alarm and a regular get-ready schedule doesn’t mean that the easy lifestyle of sweet summer has to end.

Routines can – and should – be enjoyable for all, as they provide consistent expectations and familiar structure everyone can depend on. The trick is to find a routine that suits each family member’s personality and needs.

This is a very quick and simple potato soup with a twist.
