Can't start from scratch now. I get to hear a lot of talks about how we could have done things.  I actually do have a stack of cheap Target washcloths I keep in the laundry room and use them for cleaning (with a nice earth friendly cleaner I buy in bulk and dilute myself- hey I am trying  ), BUT... I still find myself reaching for the darn paper towels in the kitchen. I probably need to stick some of the washcloths in my kitchen and maybe I'd use them more. |
In my kitchen I use old rags to clean up and I store one a week (depending on the mess!) on a little towel bar in the cabinet under my sink. That way it can be ugly, out of site and easily reachable! Same in the bathroom. My mom has 2 hand towles one for people and one she wipes the sink out with after each use, OCD I know, but her sinks looked brand new after 30 years of living in her house, when she moved into a 2 year old home the sinks looked awful compared to her old ones!
