Burnt Heart
October 2017
My mom had this big casserole bowl that looked like it went to war and back. Apparently every thing she had cooked in there over the past 45 years left an ever lasting stain on it.
She said she had tried everything to clean it over the years. I immediately googled “how to get tough stains from porcelain cooking dish” and found a mixture of baking soda and hydrogen peroxide should do the trick.
I told her I was taking the bowl home with me, and would clean and return it by the next week. My mom replied, “ok” with hesitancy. Since, she seemed to feel I would be wasting my time.
A few days later, I started with the inside and worked at it for 15 to 20 minutes – it was looking like a brand new dish. Happy with the results so far, I flipped it over I found this burnt heart shape. What a nice surprise!
It appeared that someone had tried to clean/remove this heart stain at one time. I took the pic and then with this new mixture it only took seconds to remove the last remaining stain.
When I returned the cleaned bowl back to my mom, she couldn’t believe how new it looked – she actually stated “it looks as new as it did, when I first received it”.
