Avoid house cleaning... by keeping it clean!

The only way of avoiding house cleaning is by keeping it clean
Cleaning is a habit; once we get used to it, is not that difficult. Its easier to cook in a clean kitchen and meals are more enjoyable if a mess is not waiting in the kitchen after you are done dining.

Here are a few tips:
  • Aim at having clutter-free counters returning items to designated storage place (pantry, cabinets, refrigerator, etc.) after use.
  • Designating a place for everything makes life easier, and knowing where everything is saves time and money; people buy things they already have just because they can’t find.
  • Don’t let dirty dishes sit in transit on counter, placed them in dishwasher or sink.
  • Wipe clean all spills from floors, counters and appliances the moment you see it, don’t let it sit; spills harden and/or stain and someone –meaning you, will have to clean it later
  • If you involve children in cooking process cover floor, so they can truly enjoy the experience without adding work to your routine
  • As a matter of hygiene, keep pets away from food preparation area

  1. This is such a redundant heading. Of course you need to clean your house in order to keep in clean. Unless you're talking about the real hard scrubbing that you don't have the right tools and chemicals in storage for.

  2. Redundant heading was intentional and it means it is easier to keep your home clean and organized at all times rather than letting it all become a mess where "cleaning" becomes a big task you dread overtaking.
    If you take something from your pantry and leave it on top of your countertop instead of putting it back, soon enough you have no countertop space and never know where you find anything.
    If I was to change my heading I'd say "Clean and organize as you go..."
    Thanks for your comments!
