(Fact: toddler boys really love tractors.

Not surprisingly, a few readers were pretty concerned about whether or not that practice was safe and sanitary, so today I thought I’d tell you a little bit more about how I like to clean my stainless steel kitchen sink and sanitize it after I use it for heavy-duty cleaning like that..I use my kitchen sink for almost all of my big cleaning jobs, just like it’s a big bucket of hot soapy water, but more convenient!

So if I’m wiping down walls and cabinets, or doing any Spring (or Summer, Fall, or Winter) scrubbing, I use that sink.It actually doesn’t get used for dishes all that often since we got our new dishwasher about a year and half ago, because I just love that dishwasher!The sink does get used daily though and I actually clean it out and wipe it down several times a day.

If it gets really in need of a good deep-cleaning itself or if I’ve done something like mopping the floors with it, here’s how I clean it afterwards!.So here’s my sink!.

After being used for cleaning, rinsing off plates and dumping that last little bit of coffee out of the mugs for a few days, it can start to look pretty dingy..

I like to start out by filling it up with hot water and a few cups of vinegar.. Really hot water from your tap is often enough for cleaning, but if you really want to give it a good sanitizing, boil a big pot of water and dump that in there.Just so you can see, here’s an idea of how the wood on our deck used to look, from about 2 years ago.. That wood was weath.

ered.. And now it’s fresh as a daisy!.Except better because it has that whole “distressed on purpose” look to it.

We (all of us) just love it out here now!.The back yard definitely needs a few improvements in terms of the landscaping and a bit of clean up, but it’s coming along nicely!.
