The All-Purpose Powerhouse: Baking Soda and Vinegar
Baking soda and vinegar are the dynamic duo of natural cleaning. Their combined power tackles a surprising array of messes. Baking soda’s mild abrasiveness gently scrubs away grime, while vinegar’s acidity cuts through grease and disinfects. For a basic all-purpose cleaner, mix equal parts water, white vinegar, and a tablespoon of baking soda in a spray bottle. Shake well before each use and spray onto surfaces, allowing it to sit for a few minutes before wiping clean. This solution works wonders on countertops, sinks, and even stovetops (avoid using on marble or granite).
