It is a commonly agreed notion that the kitchen is the most lived in room of the house and has the most foot traffic, which means you need a kitchen cleaning tip to help you clean it quickly.

Because the kitchen is the most popular room in the house it also means it can be messiest and most in need of a kitchen cleaning hint or two.

Hopefully you can select a kitchen cleaning tip or two from the following list to help you keep the mess and clutter to a minimum.

* Clean the kitchen cabinets, stove, refrigerator and counters with baking soda. 

* Sweep and mop your kitchen floor.

* To remove skid marks on linoleum rub the spot with toothpaste before washing the floor.

* Remove all clutter from your countertop; that includes dishes, glasses, utensils cups and other items you may have lying around.

* Store as many appliances as you can in the cabinets.

* Clean your sink with olive oil.

* Replace your dish rag regularly, as well as the sponge or scrub you use for washing.

* To remove hard-water build-up in a teapot or kettle, pour in two cups of vinegar and bring to a boil. Let simmer for about 10 minutes, then rinse well.

* To clean the coffee maker: Pour straight vinegar into it as if you are making the coffee, no filter is needed. Turn the coffee maker on as if you were making a pot of coffee. Repeat this with a new batch of vinegar until it runs clear of calcium deposits.

Cleaning is a matter of preparation, determination and time management.
