A refrigerator can be deep cleaned in 20 minutes. Do you only have 10? Here's the basic minimum you can do until you can get to this chore:

Toss Out Past-Prime Items: Do a quick inventory of your refrigerated food. Check labels for expiration dates, and throw out anything past its prime. The USDA recommends tossing leftovers after three or four days.

Wipe Up Spills: Remove the food items around that spilled soy sauce or ketchup, and wipe up the spills with a cloth dampened with hot water and an all-purpose spray. When you have time, it's best to remove all the items, wipe down the entire interior (and remove and wash the drawers in the sink with hot, soapy water).

Clean the Exterior: For enameled steel, wipe the front of the fridge with a cloth and the same multipurpose spray. Use a microfiber cloth dampened with distilled white vinegar or a stainless steel cleaner if your fridge is stainless steel.

Look up! Do you see a ceiling fan in your home? It probably needs dusting! Neglect this task and you might be flinging dust particles around the room when you turn the fan on. Here's how to clean a ceiling fan:

Step 1: Spread a Sheet on the Floor

A sheet or drop cloth will catch dust that would otherwise need to be vacuumed after this chore. And who wants a second chore after you've completed this one? This way, you can just toss the sheet in the laundry when you're done.

Step 2: Set Up a Ladder

Yes, you can stand on a chair to reach some ceiling fans. But the safest option is a sturdy, trustworthy ladder. Consider investing in a good ladder if your ceiling fan is several feet high.

Step 3: Place a Pillowcase Over Fan Blades

Close the pillowcase over the far end of the blade and slide it toward you to collect the dust. Then carefully remove the case with the open side held shut to keep the dust inside. Carry it to a trash can and shake out the dust. Move on to the next blade until you've cleaned them all.

Step 4: Wipe Blades With Cloth

After dusting, use a microfiber cloth dipped in warm, soapy water (dish soap is fine) to clean each blade. Use another dry cloth to dry.

Baseboards aren't an obvious cleaning task, but they need to be cleaned about once a month.

Use a vacuum brush attachment or a microfiber mop to get at the initial layer of dust. Wipe them clean with warm water and a bit of cleaning vinegar. Dry them off with a microfiber cloth and run a dryer sheet over them to alleviate more dust buildup.

High-touch surfaces are all the places in your home that people often touch with bare hands. We're talking doorknobs, light switch plates, appliance handles, faucets, and TV remotes.

Regularly wipe these items down with a microfiber cloth dampened with warm, soapy water (plain dish soap is fine) or an all-purpose cleaner. If someone in your family has a cold or flu, switch to a disinfectant spray or create your own disinfectant.

Cleaning the toilet lands near the top of the most-dreaded cleaning tasks list. Perhaps that's why people don't take the time to learn how to do it right. Here are some quick and easy tips to keep in mind when polishing your porcelain throne:

Let the Toilet Cleaner Do Its Job: Spray the toilet cleaner inside the bowl, covering the whole surface up to the top. Then let it sit for at least 10-15 minutes. Toilet bowl cleaners need this much time to disinfect surfaces. Finally, scrub with a hard bristle brush. You might also use a toilet wand.

Spray Disinfectant on All Surfaces: While waiting for the cleaner to cleanse the toilet bowl, spray down the entire rest of the toilet, including the seat, under the seat, the base, and even the floor area around the base. Wipe it down with paper towels and then toss them in the trash.

Don't Forget Inside the Tank: While the tank doesn't have to be cleaned as often as the toilet itself, occasionally check it for stains from mineral buildup. To clean the tank, remove the lid and add 4 cups of vinegar. Let it sit for 1 hour. Drain the tank by switching off the water to your toilet and flushing it. Scrub the tank with a toilet brush. Turn on the water and allow the tank to fill. Flush the toilet three times to rinse out the tank.

Before we know it, spring will be here. The beginning of spring makes us want to let the light in, which means it's time to clean our window treatments. Some tips for dusting blinds:

Use a Dry Dust Cloth: A dry microfiber cloth is one of the best dusters to use and will pick up the most dust. If you add water, it can make a gloppy mess.

Try a Blind Dusting Tool: Instead of tediously wiping each individual blind, use a cleaning tool that dusts multiple blinds at once, like the Casabella Blinds Duster.

Remove Stuck-On Dirt: Get rid of stubborn, stuck-on dirt or stains after you've dusted. Mix equal parts of cleaning vinegar and water. Dampen a sock with the solution, put your hand inside, and run it over the blade. Leave the blinds open to dry completely.

Yes, it's true. Baking soda can clean almost anything—including cleaning stained teacups and coffee mugs. (Fun fact: Did you know the Statue of Liberty was cleaned with baking soda on its centennial?) Here's how to let it work its magic on your drinkware:

Step 1: Mix Baking Soda and Water - Fill the mug with one part baking soda and two parts water. For an average-sized coffee mug, that would be 1 cup of water and ½ cup of baking soda.

Step 2: Soak- Baking soda needs time to work, so let it soak for at least two hours or overnight. Giving it time can also neutralize odors.

Step 3: Wipe Off Stains - Rub with a sponge and rinse. Baking soda has natural, gentle abrasive properties, but it's also completely safe.

Martin Luther King Jr. was an American Baptist minister, activist, and political philosopher who was one of the most prominent leaders in the civil rights movement from 1955 until his assassination in 1968. King advanced civil rights for people of color in the United States through the use of nonviolent resistance and nonviolent civil disobedience against Jim Crow laws and other forms of legalized discrimination.

King organized and led marches for blacks' right to vote, desegregation, labor rights, and other basic civil rights. Most of these rights were successfully enacted into law with the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the 1965 Voting Rights Act.

Through struggle and discipline, persistence and faith, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. helped move this country forward. As we honor his legacy today, let’s remember the lesson he taught us: that even in the face of impossible odds, people who love this country can help change it. In honor of , we hope you’ll do what you can in your community to create a better future for us all.

What Are Liquid Laundry Detergents?

Liquid laundry detergents are commonly used for household laundry because they’re easy to measure and pour. They’re usually pre-dissolved, which can be particularly helpful when washing in cold water, as they dissolve faster and more evenly than powders.

Advantages of Liquid Detergents

Effective on Greasy Stains: Liquid detergents excel in breaking down and removing greasy and oily stains. The liquid form enables the detergent to pe*****te fabrics more quickly and target stubborn grease spots, making it an excellent choice for active families.

Ideal for Cold and Quick Washes: Because liquid detergents dissolve quickly, they’re better suited for cold water washes and shorter wash cycles. This can save energy and help prevent color fading or fabric shrinkage, which can occur with hot water.

Easy to Measure: Liquid detergents often come with clearly marked measuring caps, which can help prevent overuse. Using the right amount of detergent per load is crucial for maintaining fabric quality and achieving the best cleaning results.

Drawbacks of Liquid Detergents

Potential for Overuse: Liquid detergent’s easy pourability can make it tempting to use too much, leading to residue buildup on clothes and in washing machines. This can be especially problematic for high-efficiency (HE) washers, which use less water.

Environmental Concerns: Liquid detergents are typically packaged in plastic bottles, which contribute to environmental waste if not recycled properly. Additionally, some formulas may contain additives and chemicals that can be harmful to the environment.

Higher Cost: Liquid detergents can be more expensive than powder options on a per-load basis. This cost difference can add up over time, especially for large households.

Make Shower Cleaning Second Nature
There are several low-effort ways to keep a shower clean. Here are a few of them:

Buy a Squeegee: Keep a squeegee in the shower so it's easy to remember to wipe down the walls. It's more efficient than a cloth, which can get saturated with water and sliding a squeegee down the walls from top to bottom is easy. It literally takes seconds.

Wash as You Go: Cleanse the shower while you're in there. Surveys show that some people keep a dish wand filled with equal parts dish soap and vinegar in the shower so they can scrub while they shower. Try it and see it works for you.

Spritz Daily: Spray the walls with a daily shower spray. It dissolves on the walls and prevents soap scum.

Microwave Cleaning: To finally clean up those pesky tomato stains once and for all, fill a large microwave-safe bowl with one cup of water and a chopped-up lemon, lime, or orange or several tablespoons of vinegar and stick it inside. Turn the appliance on high for several minutes or until the solution boils and the window is steamy, then let it cool for five minutes before opening the door. Remove and wipe the inside and outside with a microfiber towel.
