Three Timeless Tips for Quick Clean-ups

1. To clean a blender, fill it halfway with hot water and add a drop of liquid dishwashing soap. Cover, let it run for 10 seconds, then rinse.

2. Carefully sprinkle salt on fresh oven spills. Once cool, the burnt food will wipe up easily with a damp sponge.

3. Clean up a scorched pot with baking soda. Fill the pot with water and add 2-3 tablespoons of baking soda. Boil, then let stand over night. The next day the food will scape off easily and quickly with a plastic spatula.
