Kitchens usually are smeared and splattered from all that cooking. You can use off-the-shelf cleaners to remove those greasy stains, but some everyday options are great choices as well.
  • Give the cabinets a wipe with a cloth dampened with soapy water followed by a another clean cloth.
  • Clean off counters with the right cleaning solution for the counter material or you might consider white vinegar.
  • Wash out sinks with a solution consisting of water and baking soda. A few shakes of baking soda sprinked down the disposal will help deodorize it. Wash it away with water after about 10 minutes.
