Keep windows streak-free by ditching vinegar for one common kitchen item
This clever hack can help clean windows in no time (Image: Elizabeth Fernandez via Getty Images) Windows are prone to getting particularly grubby during summer months, especially when you're frequently opening and closing them, allowing dust to accumulate on the interior glass surfaces. It can be frustrating attempting to maintain spotless windows as the glass has a tendency to streak, but TJ, a mother and creator of Measuring Flower, reveals there's a straightforward method to avoid those annoying marks. TJ explained: "I mixed alcohol, water, and cornstarch. Voila! I think I have found my perfect window cleaner. The alcohol disinfects, the cornstarch does something magical to make it streak-free and clear, and the water simply dilutes it." READ MORE: 'Simple yet effective' shoe rule means you'll never go over luggage weight limit Windows are prone to getting grubby during summer months (Image: Getty) Cornstarch works by disrupting water's surface tension, meaning it helps window cleaning mixtures spread across glass so they dry more uniformly. It's also incredibly absorbent, soaking up any leftover residue from cleaning products to ensure no streaks remain, reports the Express. Whilst some people champion white vinegar for window cleaning, it dries too rapidly, typically resulting in numerous visible streaks. White vinegar can work when combined with cornstarch, though rubbing alcohol proves superior as it's a powerful disinfectant that leaves no traces behind. TJ added: "Some say to just use plain white vinegar. But, when I tried just plain white vinegar (diluted with water, of course), it left streaks on my glass." Pour all the ingredients into an empty spray bottle. You can find these in the gardening aisle of most supermarkets, or even in pound shops. Ensure that the water you use is cold, as cornstarch begins to thicken when heated, which could turn your cleaning solution into a gloopy mess that blocks the spray bottle. Once you've added everything, secure the cap on the spray bottle and give it a good shake to combine all the ingredients. Then, simply spray it onto a window and wipe it down with a dry cloth. In just 10 minutes, your windows will be gleaming and sparkling clean. This easy solution can also be used to clean other glass surfaces like mirrors or shower doors.

Love Island drama continues as Iris Kendall is spotted with TJ Palma again
'Love Island USA' contestants Iris Kendall and TJ Palma appear to be reconnecting following the season's end, sparking speculation about their relationship status. The two were seen together Monday night in Los Angeles, shortly after returning from Fiji where the show was filmed. TMZ published video footage showing the former islanders embracing, chatting, and sharing laughs outside TJ's temporary residence. According to the outlet, Iris and TJ spent roughly two hours walking and talking before heading into his place, where fellow contestant Austin Shepard later joined them. 😂😂😂😂😂 iris and tj, this season of love island us was full of fake couples, that's why huda left alone 👏👏 — yo mas (@yomas70417596) July 15, 2025 The reunion comes just days after the show's finale, where Iris had advanced to the final four with Pepe Garcia, whom she coupled up with after TJ's earlier elimination from the villa. Iris and Pepe were last seen together at the airport, holding hands and appearing affectionate as they left Fiji with other finalists. -TMZ. However, the dynamics appear to have shifted once the group returned to the United States. While Iris made her way to TJ's place in LA—reportedly dropped off by friends—Pepe returned to Orange County to visit family and his dog, opting out of the group's Los Angeles meet-up. During his time on the show, TJ expressed hopes of rekindling his connection with Iris once filming ended. Based on their recent interaction, it seems he may be getting that opportunity. It remains unclear where things stand between Iris and either of the men, but fans are closely watching for developments. Whether this LA meetup leads to a rekindled romance or a brief catch-up remains to be seen. For now, speculation continues to swirl around who Iris might ultimately choose.

TJ Palma's Ex Claims He Reached Out Right Before ‘Love Island: USA': ‘I'm Gonna Marry You'
TJ Palma's Ex Claims He Reached Out Right Before 'Love Island: USA': 'I'm Gonna Marry You' originally appeared on Parade. With Love Island: USA season 7 airing for quite some time now, based on a bit of social media sleuthing, fans are starting finding out some disappointing (to say the least) things about the pasts of the islanders we have grown to know and love. With a quick social media stalk revealing that Cierra Ortega has previously used a racial slur not once, but twice — much like Yulissa Escobar, who was swiftly removed from the show after three days — even fan favorite islanders have pasts that are rather questionable. The next individual who had their dirty laundry aired out was TJ Palma, a 23-year-old entrepreneur from Pleasantville, New York. For those who need a refresher, TJ entered the villa on day 14 as a bombshell alongside Andreina Santos. Despite instantly hitting it off with Iris Kendall, the Casa Amor twist began swiftly after his arrival, leaving TJ single for the first half of the experience, and coupled up with Vanna Einerson for the second half of the experience. Although he seemingly had a spark with Vanna, TJ chose Iris at the recoupling ceremony on day 20 instead, and things have smooth sailing ever since. Well, that is until a statement from his ex, Jessica Musraca, has caused fans of the Love Island franchise to question TJ's true intentions... On a recent episode of Gossip With Grace: Unfiltered, hosted by pop culture expert Grace Parisi, Jessica sat down to talk about her former relationship with the fan favorite islander, admitting that they were in communication just hours before his arrival — yikes! "He texted me the night before he left to go on Love Island," Jessica boldly claimed, prior to delving into the details of what this alleged message actually entailed. "I won't read it word for word, but basically he sent me a song called like, 'You're The Love Of My Life,' and he was like, 'I'm gonna marry you and I love you.' That's what he said to me," she continued — how wild is that? To follow this statement, Jessica confirmed that "it was definitely a drunk text" from the ex-college baseball player, as it took place "at 3:00 AM" and "he texted the next day like, 'I apologize for saying that.'" Nevertheless, Jessica concluded the conversation, "Two days later, I find out he's like on Love Island," which naturally came as a shock. Although TJ and Iris are as cute as can be, is he really there for the right reasons if he allegedly told another woman "I'm gonna marry you and I love you" just hours before his stint on the show? To see for yourself, tune into brand new episodes of Love Island: USA season 7 every day — except Wednesdays — via Peacock. Needless to say, we are on the edge of our seats... TJ Palma's Ex Claims He Reached Out Right Before 'Love Island: USA': 'I'm Gonna Marry You' first appeared on Parade on Jul 3, 2025 This story was originally reported by Parade on Jul 3, 2025, where it first appeared.
