Bench Freshener
If you are cleaning your kitchen the “eco friendly” way with white vinegar and bi carb soda, I bet you miss that “fresh” smell that some of those spray on cleaners give. The solution to this is to have a couple of bottles of essential oils on hand – I like Lemon or Orange. After you have cleaned your sink and benches, rinse the cloth and tip a couple of drops of oil onto the sponge/dishcloth. Wipe this over the benches and your kitchen is filled with a wonderful scent – which is not only good for the environment, but also good for you. Orange oil is “uplifting” whilst Lemon Oil boosts “awareness”. The scent also lasts much longer than using one of those other bench sprays.
