Microwaves get dirty quickly. A simple hack for loosening all of the bits of food and grease from the sides is by steam cleaning. Place a small microwave-safe bowl of white vinegar in the center of the microwave and warm for approximately 5 minutes. Microwave power varies, so be sure to monitor the cleaning and shorten the time if all the vinegar is evaporated. Use extreme caution with the bowl and any remaining liquid as they will be extremely hot. The debris and grime will be loosened and will easily wipe away.
Wash Reusable Grocery Bags
One of the first things many people do upon returning from the grocery store is wash their hands in order to prevent the spread of viruses and bacteria that we’ve come into contact along the way. But what about those reusable bags sitting on our kitchen floor or countertop? Reusable grocery bags can harbor all sorts of icky stuff left by raw meat packaging, unwashed fruits and vegetables, and from unclean surfaces. To wash toss those reusable bags in the wash on a warm, gentle cycle or hand wash in warm, soapy water and hang to dry.
