Using all the chemicals it's bad, and it's worst that it adds up, drop by drop... <br /><br />Thanks for stopping by, Monique!Aliciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09637712312686274989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8245960788517958704.post-12318683069007435022012-09-28T12:13:34.313-04:002012-09-28T12:13:34.313-04:00I used to love Real Simple before I went on a maga...I used to love Real Simple before I went on a magazine fast three years ago. Thanks for sharing these tips, Alicia! I giggled when you mentioned how "not popular" the 5 minute tidy is at your house. Luckily I married a man who has much higher cleanliness standards than I do; so guess what? He gets tired of the dirt and dust long before me... and cleans it himself LOL. <br /><br />For the day to day stuff, mild dish soap, vinegar and baking soda (and occasionally peroxide or a touch of bleach) are not only cheaper, but better for our collective health than many commercial cleaners. My best tip? Get rid of anything cluttering your environment (at home or work). The less junk you keep, the less junk you will have to clean. Clutter is much more demoralizing than a little dust, anyway!Monique (A Half-Baked Notion)https://www.blogger.com/profile/16227965573117684221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8245960788517958704.post-21558224816646541852012-09-27T17:08:02.003-04:002012-09-27T17:08:02.003-04:00Hi Alicia,
