Green Clean Your Kitchen

By Steve Stearns

Silverware
Give your silverware an all natural polish with no harsh or harmful chemicals.

Place a sheet of aluminum foil into a glass bowl. Sprinkle salt and baking soda onto the foil and fill the bowl with warm water. Soak your silver items in the bowl. The tarnish will move to the foil leaving your silverware clean and shiny!

Dry your silver and buff to enhance the shine. Rest easy and confident that during your next meal you've got no nasty chemical residue on your silverware.

Microwave
To clean your microwave naturally try heating a bowl of water and lemon slices for 30 seconds; then use a rag or towel to wipe out your microwave. Stains will be easier to remove and you'll note a fresh lemony scent.

Oven
Got a mess off baked on food in your oven? Use table salt to remove it. Simply cover the area in salt while the oven is still cooling. After it is fully cooled, scrape the food away and wipe of the excess with a damp sponge.
