For those of you who brown bag it everyday, you probably are quite familiar with the plastic container.
For those of you who have ever used one or worse, microwaved some delicious spaghetti sauce in one of these - you also know what a pain they are to keep clean.

I've been going through one heck of a kitchen renovation, and it's pretty much done (yay!).
I am so pleased with the results, and it's been such a joy to set up and cook in a kitchen that feels like 'me'. We purchased and installed all new cabinets (glass...
Doing dishes is one of those jobs that must get done, even when it's the last thing we want to do. I think it’s safe to say that we all want to know how to do dishes less often and more efficiently, so today we are going to share...
In many homes—I can't say all or most, but in many homes—there is at least one bottle of hydrogen peroxide. It always comes in a brown bottle because once exposed to sunlight it becomes unstable, it separates, and becomes useless. When buying it you will most often find it...
Cream of Tartar sounds way fancier than it really is. In fact, it's known in the scientific community as Potassium bitartrate, but sounds way classier as cream of tartar. Don't you feel a little more bourgeoisie now? It kind of sounds like a 19th century toothpaste that royalty used. I...
If you are cooking for the holidays, I want some. Send me a care package.
We always complain that we eat too much but it does happen only once per year (that's the real reason LuluLemon pants exist). And you know you've pinned like 2,398,439 recipes that you want to...
It’s the one thing that you can find in almost every home. Wooden cutting boards have become a staple item in kitchens everywhere. They provide a hard, durable surface for all your chopping and dicing needs. But many people don’t know how to properly care for their cutting boards....

Oh goodness, my fridge looked stuffed, crusty and frankly, needed some love. So this week, I decided to film it, Clean With Me style, and show you exactly how I clean my fridge. Now, I do have a video where we do an even *more* thorough clean of the...
I think the kitchen is one of the most complicated spaces in the home to clean and maintain. Kitchen cleaning can be really time-consuming. And with so many appliances, types of stains, different surfaces, and more, cleaning the kitchen can be overwhelming.
I've written articles on cleaning kitchen appliances, including:

We're going deep on the company behind one of my favorite enzyme cleaners: Biokleen.
Sponges and cloths are playgrounds for nasty kitchen bacteria.
Bacteria goes everywhere because we spread it about while cooking, cleaning, and preparing meals. Just think of how many times you touch and use that dish towel while preparing a dish such as roast chicken!
The concept of paper towels is what...

Your refrigerator is one of the hardest working appliances in your home.
Often overlooked, it endures spills, stinky odors and overcrowding on a daily basis and never gets a break. A clean refrigerator helps keep food fresher and is less likely to have issues down the road. There are various...
Sometimes, it can be hard to know how often we're supposed to clean something. While we most often use our sense of smell and sight to decide if something needs cleaning, there are other triggers and indicators out there that you should clean something. So, let's take a look...
