Remember how it calls for fresh lemon juice?
I hope you used a fresh lemon to get that fresh lemon juice.
If you did, you can get a little extra something out of it, just like I did.
After I juiced the lemon, I threw the rind in the sink, waiting until I got around to cleaning the dishes to do anything with it.
And then, when I did get around to it, I felt like it was a waste just to throw that pretty little yellow thing away. I tore up one half of it and put it through the garbage disposal, because I think I had heard somewhere that lemons are good for that. I don't know if it was good for the disposal or not, but it did smell really good.
But then I still had half a lemon rind left. So I tore that into two pieces, and rubbed one on the kitchen sink - yes, ON the kitchen sink. It cleared up some grime and smelled good to boot! Then, inspired by my newfound cleaning tool, I ran into the bathroom and used the other lemon piece on the bathroom sink. It cut grime there too!
Who knew?!? Non-toxic, smell-good, waste-free cleaning?!? I'm on board!
You've got to understand ... I hate cleaning. That's why I have a food blog, not a cleaning blog. But if something like cooking with fresh lemons can inspire me to clean just a tiny little bit, I'll take it!
