If you like the idea of natural cleaning supplies, here's one you can try. You'll need water and rubbing alcohol in equal amounts (about 3/4 cup), a dozen drops of essential oil (adjust to your liking), and a squirt of dish soap. Mix in a sprayer bottle, spray, and enjoy the aroma!
Keep your kitchen sponge fresh by rinsing and squeezing it with each use. You can also slip it inside the silverware rack in the dishwasher for an occasional sanitizing clean! Fresh sponges, unite!
