Quick Cleaning

Members Were Sparked

When I am watching TV in the evenings, I get up during the commercials to wipe down the counters, unload the dishwasher, or do any number of quick chores. It feels less overwhelming to do things in quick bursts and I get a lot done!

Keep Extra Workout Gear in Your Car

I keep a set of extra running clothes and shoes in my car along with a couple of bottles of water and baby wipes (for quick clean ups). Some times opportunities for a quick run or walk just happen and this way I am prepared- a quick change in a public restroom and I'm off & running!

Canned Air

For a quick clean up of dust and cobwebs, I used the canned air designed for cleaning your computer. I spray the tops of my picture frames and along the tops of the curtains and blinds. It also works great for cleaning the dust off silk plants.

cooking in foil

I wrap my meat in foil after putting the appropriate seasoning on the meat and stick it in my George Foreman grill. I also spray the foil with Pam for non stick cooking. the allows for quick clean up and moist flavorful meat.
