Happy February!! This month we are taking on the kitchen for The Household Organization Diet and I will be sharing a ton of kitchen cleaning, organization, and decor ideas all month long to help inspire you along the way! If you would like to join in, you can find the free printable monthly to-do list and calendar on yesterday’s post.

I’m glad I’m not the only one who feels better with just a clean kitchen! My desk is a disaster, but I know I could walk into the kitchen right now and start cooking without having to get anything washed for it, so I feel alright about the house!
Jenn Lifford says
Lol! I am totally the same way!

Thanks for the info. The link for cleaning the dishwasher isn’t working. It keeps sending me back to this post.

Claire says
I just bought a ceramic grill pan and I’m seriously struggling with some grease stains. I scrubbed with warm water and soap and I’ve tried boiling water in it and scrubbing again and some of it still won’t budge. Any suggestions?
Jenn Lifford says
I don`t have any ceramic pans so I`m not sure. Have you tried making a paste with cream of tartar? It works on my baking sheets.
Claire says
I haven’t heard of that method before but I’ll give it a try and let you know! Just cream of tartar and water?
Heather says
Do you use the vinegar/water/essential oil combo with your norwex cloths? I am so inspired by your website. I’m trying to get all the right things. Which norwex cloths do you think are must haves? Have you tried e-cloths?
Jenn Lifford says
Yes, I often use the vinegar/water/essential oils with my Norwex but I will use just plain water too. I use my basic microfiber Norwex cloths, the polishing cloth, and the dusting mitt all the time. I haven`t tried the e-cloths but have seen them around at HomeSense. 🙂

Thank you for all these helpful tips. My personal favourites products for cleaning are lemons and baking soda. Me and my family love the lemon scent in our home. I will share this with all my friends. Thanks for being awesome! <3
