oh cool! I'd never heard of the cornstarch either! sounds so easy! And cheaper than what I'm looking at. 1 part water, 1 part vinegar, 1 part vodka. infused vinegar and essential oils if desired.

My last post disappeared:

Dish washer soap: 1/4 C LemiShine, 1 C baking soda. I keep these mixed in a small jar. When it's time to wash dishes, I put a Tbsp or so in the soap dispenser along with a few drops of liquid dawn. Works as well as any commercial product.

Home made laundry detergent: https://www.hunker.com/12004010/homemade-laundry-soap-with-fels-naptha

This is a non sudsing cleaner. Great for HE washers. It also works well as a tub cleaner.

I have an oil diffuser for air freshener. Orange and eucalyptus essential ouls are our favorites. A few drops in the water and it's great. The diffuser is a himalayan salt lamp so the light from it is soothing as well.

Oh and the bowl of water (with optional orange peel or vinegar for deodorizing) in the microwave for 5 minutes is good. It's the only way to clean the thing. Since it's simple wiping after that.

Citrus peels down the garbage disposer to freshen it up. It freshens the whole kitchen.

I don't use the garbage disposal for much, but since the dishwasher drains through there I need to run it with citrus about once a month.
