Are we ready?! 2020 may be totally wack but that doesn't mean we shouldn't rock one of the all time most popular annual posts on Olive and Tate, right? Welcome to 5 Days of Drop Off Outfits: 2020 Edition Here's what to expect this year: Many of us are not actually doing the school drop off thing.

Have you ever exploded pizza sauce in the microwave? Today’s post will show you how to clean a microwave using only water, vinegar, and steam! It’s easy to do, only takes a few minutes, and it works great! Pin this post! I was able to clean off dirt and grime I didn’t even realize was there! I love simple cleaning solutions like this.
