Double Duty Cleaning Action

Double Duty Cleaning Action by using OxyClean Versatile Powder Stain Remover

If you have young kids - or just kids of any kind - I'm sure there are several items of clothing with stubborn stains that are a pain to try to get out. Try this:
  • separate clothes into same color batches - whites, lights, darks
  • fill your sink with water (warm for white/lights, cold for darks - enough to cover the clothes added)
  • add 1-2 scoops of OxyClean Versatile Powder Stain Remover
  • add a batch of clothes
  • let soak for several hours or overnight
  • wring clothes out and add to washer as normal

Bonus - You get a sparkling clean sink in the end too!!

Cleaning White Cabinets ... UGH!

OK - so today I finally decided to tackle the god-awful job of cleaning our white cabinets in our kitchen (which I swear to my husband our next home will not have as I cannot stand them!) The last time I cleaned them was nearly 2 years ago. So I had my 6 month old down for a morning nap, gave my 2 year old a spray bottle filled with water and a cloth to "help" me clean the bottom cabinets (which resulted in a very wet floor but a productive time of cleaning the cabinets - hey - whatever works!) and set out to scrub the heck out of these dingy cabinets. In the end, the best thing that worked was this cleaner called "Greased Lightning" that I found in the back of my cleaning supplies cabinet. It was the only thing that I think worked the best with the least amount of effort from me. I also used it to soak the stove knobs in and it worked pretty well too. So I can know say that at least 1/2 of my kitchen is clean. The other half is for another day.

P.S. - Here is the website of the cleaning product I used.
