I have a good kitchen tip to share with you today. Cleaning your gas stove can be quick and chemical-free with baking soda and vinegar or lemon. Switch off the gas and let the stove cool, then remove grates and trays and soak them in warm water with baking soda and vinegar or lemon juice for 10 minutes. Sprinkle baking soda on greasy spots, avoiding burner holes, then spray vinegar or lemon juice to let the fizz lift grime. After 5 to 10 minutes, gently scrub with a soft cloth or brush, using a toothbrush for corners. Wipe with a damp cloth, dry, and reassemble. Although rust may not be fully removed, for stubborn areas, apply a baking soda paste for 10 to 15 minutes before scrubbing. For a shiny, deodorized finish, spray diluted vinegar, one to one part water, and wipe dry. Always clean in a ventilated space, wear gloves, and ensure burners and igniters are fully dry before using again.

Feeling listless, Ingrid bought some expensive vegan “brain-stimulating” pills at the health food store. But it wasn’t until she got home that she properly read the label. Ingrid then complained to her husband:
“This is just full of rosemary extract; I can’t believe I spent all that money for something that I have growing like wild in the backyard!”
“See, honey? You’re smarter already.”
