Want to restore a 40-year-old decoration to its former glory? Try these simple, safe cleaning tricks that won’t damage the finish.

Have you ever seen a decoration your parents kept, carrying it with them from another country or a previous marriage? Carmina realized that parents often hold onto items they've purchased in the past. While browsing Greenhill's shopping center, she stepped into  Mystic Gems by Bensani and saw so many nostalgic items that reminded her of growing up.  I pointed out to Mom Violy that she had a similar crystal tree decoration at home. She said it was forty years old and already dirty. The saleslady explained it could be cleaned easily with soap and water. Carmina decided to take Mom Violy home and bring the crystal tree decoration with her. Mom Violy questioned why she was taking it, and I said I would clean it and return it.  I noticed Mom Violy had placed planting seeds inside the decoration, for reasons I didn’t understand. Before cleaning it, I checked online to see what was needed, knowing its value. I placed a towel underneath, prepared a plastic container with dishwas...

Chicken Soft Taco Recipe

Carmina wanted to try something new with using boneless chicken thighs instead of ground meat.

Chicken Soft Taco Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 12 pieces - Boneless Chicken Thigh (sliced into strips)
  • 1 - Taco Seasoning (any brand)
  • Cooking Oil
  • Tortilla (any brand)
  • Romaine lettuce (sliced thinly)
  • Salsa 
  • Cheese (any brand and grated)
To get the Salsa Recipe click the name along with other recipes. 

Preparing:

I did the reverse by marinating the boneless chicken thighs by slicing them first into strips adding the hot water to half cup along with taco seasoning.

I find it easier to use hot water rather cold to let the seasoning dilute faster.

I placed the boneless chicken thighs with the mixture of taco seasoning inside the refrigerator for one hour.

Let it soak before pan frying the boneless chicken thigh. 

Cooking:

  • Start heating cooking oil on the frying pan until hot add some chicken strips making sure there is enough space.
  • Cook on both sides place on a serving plate.

Assemble:

It is easier to place each ingredient in a separate container so whomever will eat the soft taco can make their own. 

Prevent getting your chicken soft taco sogging.
