Lemon
Tips
More than just another tasty ingredient, lemons
do double duty cleaning and freshening your home - and you.
- Neutralize the odors of fish or onions on
your hands by rubbing them with slices of lemon.
- Deodorize the garbage disposal with
leftover lemon peels. Simply drop in, turn on disposal, and
flush with water.
- Polish unlacquered brass and
copper. Sprinkle a little salt on the cut side of half a lemon
and rub it on the tarnished item. Rinse, and dry with a soft
cloth.
- Clean the microwave with this tip from
Heloise's new book, "In the Kitchen with Heloise: Using a
microwave-safe bowl, stir 2 tablespoons of lemon juice into a cup of
water. Let the mixture boil in the microwave for 5 minutes, then
wipe off the condensed steam.
- Bleach tomato stains from plastic storage
container. Rub the cut side of a lemon over the stained areas of
the container; leave the container in the sun for a few hours for
extra lightening.
- Remove rust stains from washable fabric
by applying lemon juice and salt to the fabric and placing it in the
sun. Keep the stained area moist with lemon juice until the spot
disappears. Brush away dried salt, and wash as the label
directs.
