4AM Peaceful Morning Routine | Silent Vlog | Slow Living

These days I get used to waking up at 4am.

Wiping the glass on the wood stove window.

I didn't wipe it every day before.

If the firewood doesn't burn well,
There's a lot of soot on the glass windows.
If this is repeated, it will stick to the surface and
Even if you wipe it quickly, it's difficult to get it clean.
It's difficult, so I'll put it off.
And it gets more and more difficult.
It's a vicious cycle.

Autumn deepens,
It's finally time to bring out the wood stove.

I visited a long-established stove shop.

Next to the stove with its soft flickering flame,
Sitting in a rocking chair,
The shop owner, who was reading the newspaper, said:

"The wood stove is really nice.
The most beautiful thing is the flames visible through the stove window.
To enjoy it, I clean the windows every day.
Just a quick wipe, it's easy."

every day!?
Quickly?

I tried it with some skepticism,
It really does clean up in a flash.

Until now
I tried to clean the blackened glass window,
Various cleaners available on the market
I've tried the sponge.
All of them are "easy and fall off quickly"
Although it is a selling point,
It never "just fell off."

Don't let dirt accumulate.
That's the easiest and fastest way.

While the wood stove is running,
It's so hot I can't wipe it.
So it's the first thing I do in the morning before lighting the fire.

What we use is
I used it as a kitchen dishcloth the day before.
Washable kitchen paper.

The kitchen cloths are
Since the coronavirus outbreak, I've switched to disposable types.
I tried various things, but
nowScotty washable kitchen paper (thick type)に
Calm.
It can be washed in a washing machine, which is very convenient.

The kitchen sponge
I changed it every day.
I've actually been using it for about two days.

Kitchen paper and sponges
Then use it for cleaning and dispose of it.
I've started doing more ``quick cleaning'' on the side.

After all, cleaning shouldn't pile up.
(With a sense of self-reflection)

With just a little effort,
This creates a richness that allows you to enjoy the beauty of flames.
