Stain Prevention

Clean up spills as they occur so you won’t be faced with one huge cleaning session.
Did you know that you use 20% of your utensils 80% of the time? Any tool or appliance which doesn’t get used during a week of cooking should be cleaned and stored to save counter and cupboard space and cleaning time.
It’s easier to clean a grill if you do it after each use. Also oil the grill rack before each use to make cleanup easier.
Wash as you go. Fill one half of a double sink or a separate waterproof tub with hot soapy water and drop in utensils as you use them. Food won’t dry on the utensils and cleanup will be a breeze.
Once every 7-10 days, remove all the food from your refrigerator, wipe down the inside with warm soapy water, clean all the shelves and trays, then replace the food. As you work, check expiration dates and discard food past those dates. Place an open box of baking soda in the back of the fridge.
Once a month, remove all the food from your pantry, wipe down with a clean damp cloth, check for spoilage and expiration dates, then replace items in their designated places.

Make Your Own Cleaning Solutions

For your own window washing solution, mix 1/3 cup vinegar and 1/4 cup rubbing alcohol in a 1 quart spray bottle. Fill up with water.
Dry baking soda cleans chrome perfectly.
Cream of tartar and water mixed to a paste will clean porcelain.
A paste of baking soda and water will clean coffee stains.
Plain liquid Ivory soap mixed with water is one of the best all-purpose cleaners. You can keep this solution in a spray bottle, but only use a bit of soap or the mixture may become too foamy to spray.
Use a cut lemon half sprinkled with salt to clean copper.
Dissolve 1/4 cup baking soda in 1 quart of warm water for a good general cleaner.
