We (you know I mean Chris, right?)

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.If you’re using the hot water method of sanitizing, then your surfaces need to be in contact with water that’s 180 degrees for at least 30 seconds to kill off any unpleasant microorganisms.

I love this method because it’s fast and it’s effective!

Don’t hesitate to use a thermometer either!Big photo frames: Michael’s.
