We love our sectional sofa, but the only catch is that you can see stains on the fabric. I’ve gotten it professionally steam cleaned twice (!), and recently, right after the guys came, Anton spilled hot chocolate on a cushion. *shakes fist* My colleague Maureen told me about this mini steamer, which cleans carpets, rugs, cars, armchairs, sofas, etc. Have you tried it?

P.S. More fun things, and a podcast that made me laugh in Trader Joe’s. Plus, another flower trick.
