Tip of the day

Cheap plastic tea sets are much more fun in the bath than expensive bath toys. And they don't get covered in black goo like rubber ducks do, either. Avendesora

Quote of the week

CaptainNancy's (admirably succinct) family rules: "Don't be a dingbat/duffer. Keep calm and carry on. Dream big. Shut up and get on with it."

Recipe of the week

Carmenere's cinder toffee: sweet, sticky, made-in-five-minutes toffee squares that'll spark off a few 'yums' among the 'oohs' and 'aahs' of your little fireworks-watchers.

Method was on special offer in Sainsburys today so thanks for the tip. Our entire house will smell of lavender from now on.

I did look at the Stardrops but it scares me a little - surely it can't be used for everything!

I love love love Stardrops. Its not environmentally friendly though but it can be used for everything from handwashing, washing up liquid, cleaning windows and mirrors and grotty floors.

I like Method cleaning sprays - they do a super job on the kitchen surfaces but you can also use them on anything that can cope with water so I also use them for damp dusting, wiping down furniture etc. And they smell nice too.

I have been running down my overstocked cleaning cupboard recently and need to restock.

I seem to have about 8 different spray bottles for different things (bathrooms/kitchen/limescale/windows etc).

Can you recommend some slightly greener all purpose products. I used ecover some time ago but wasn't that impressed.

What do all use to clean the house.

If you want your link to display text other than the web address itself, leave a space after the address then add the text before the ]]. So "Look at [[www.mumsnet.com this page]]", would display "Look at this page".
