The Microwave
Ever burn a bag of popcorn in yours? The smell can linger for weeks. Here's a tip that will not only help you clean the microwave, but get rid of any odors it may harbor.To clean your microwave oven, mix 2 Tablespoons of vinegar and 2 cups of water in a 4 cup glass microwave safe bowl. Microwave on HIGH for two to three minutes. Carefully remove the bowl (liquid will be very HOT) and wipe the microwave with paper towels. Remember to wipe the top of the inside of the microwave, too, to get rid of food splatters that you may not see. Repeat as necessary. The steam from the liquid helps soften the dried on food while at the same time getting rid of icky odors.
