not just for tequilla anymore

In lieu of people being more organic (I really hate that word), I thought I would post a blog about the uses of lemons and lemon juice. Using lemons while cleaning has proven to be just as amazing as the cleaners that "take your breath away". One of my favorite uses for lemons is cleaning copper bottom pots & pans.

like a copper penny...
a tarnished pot spray on lemon juice spread lemon juice
shake on salt spread salt on pot wipe away excess

This method of cleaning your copper bottom pots & pans is a lot easier if you use a halved lemon with salt. But I have a spray bottle with lemon juice in it because lemon juice can be used the following ways:
  • Remove soap scum
  • Clean counter tops and sinks (add salt for sinks)
  • Natural bleach for clothing
  • Furniture polish (add olive oil)
  • Clean your microwave
