I've coined a new term. Pinteresting. And why not? It's interesting, it's pin-able...it's Pinteresting. Things that live in a world of do it yourself, or make your own...very pinteresting, indeed.
Here is something I tried, that I
pinned a few days ago. And wouldn't you know it...that Pinterest is too smart. IT WORKS!
How to clean a glass top stove, with no chemicals or special ingredients.

Here is my stove. Not terrible, but not great. It kinda looked like this when it was given to me, and I didn't know what to do about it. Well, it's likely worse now than it was then. I am the queen of the boil-over. |

Up close, every burner had a browny-black ring around it |

Take baking soda, and generously pour/sprinkle over surface. Soak a towel or rag in hot soapy water, and wring out, so it's still pretty wet, but not dripping/sopping. Lay over the baking soda, set the timer for 15 minutes, and walk away. |

When the time is up, use the towel to scrub the stubborn spots, and rinse. This is after 1 time....LOTS better! |

But there was still a bit of brown/black gunk that was stubbornly stuck (after really never having been cleaned so thoroughly!) I used a new razor blade to gently go over those spots, and then did the baking soda treatment again. And presto! It looks like it's only 1 day old! Phenomenal, and super cheap...and good for your health too. No strong chemicals to have to worry about! |
Thank you Pinterest - until next time!
