Monthly Tasks:
- Clean Cabinets and Drawers: Remove all items, then wipe inside and outside surfaces with a damp cloth. Pay extra attention to greasy areas around the stove.
- Deep Clean Oven: Mix ½ cup of baking soda with 3 tablespoons of water to form a thick paste. Apply it generously to the oven walls, floor, ceiling, and door. Let it sit for at least 30 minutes (or longer for heavy grime), then scrub and rinse thoroughly. For stubborn stains, spray vinegar over the paste to activate fizzing and loosen grime. Soak the removable oven racks in hot, soapy water, then scrub them thoroughly to remove grease and buildup.
