A Designed Life: Help Still Wanted

01.03.10

With the prices of cleaning products as much as any architect-inspired-made-in-China-Ralph Low-rip or a John Paul 'Goat-tee-yeah', and a few friends resorting to charming their plastic bottles and refilling at the deal in (It's called sustainability, not poverty, who knew), I had to do something without delay and "sustainable".

Step 1: Put wine to cold.

Step 2: Light girl incense.

Step 3: Discover on music, obscenely loud and make believe this is the most fun you will ever have cutting... lemons/limes.

Countertops: Cut lemon in half, dip in baking soda, wipe with a wet sponge and dry. Don't use on precise stones, like marble, or on stainless bear up.

Faucets: Get rid of lime scale by rubbing lemon spirit onto the taps and let it sit overnight. Wipe with a steamy cloth.

Grout: For coffee stains on tiled countertops: Add lemon spirit to 1 or 2 teaspoons cream of tartar (handy in packets at most supermarkets), to make a paste. Request with a toothbrush, then rinse.
