Roasts are not only easy to make but make probably the best meals in the world. The only downfall is cleaning the baking dishes after, not anymore and this is why.
If you have remnants of your casserole stuck to your baking dish, scrunch up a clean piece of foil into a ball, then use it with few drops of dishwashing liquid to scrub glass cookware clean.

Pick your pet’s fur up quickly and easily by running a damp rubber glove over the surface. Any hair will cling to the glove, not the upholstery.
4. Use a Lemon to Freshen a Cutting Board

Your cutting board will be stain-free and smell lemony fresh.
5. Clean bottom of iron
