Cleaning my DIRTY STOVETOP with my SHAMPOO

Posted on 08:43 by Unknown
My STOVETOP, gets used people, A LOT. I have yet to see someone use their stove, and have it still be clean. Ok, don't actually go showing me your freakishly clean stovetops (MOM), lol. 
I swear that woman can cook a 10 course dinner, and her stove, is still clean. She's not normal, I tell you, he he. 


Anyway, here is what I did to clean mine, WITHOUT any expensive,  or harmful chemicals. 


I will let you all in a little secret about our washing habits. We don't use shampoo. I have switched to using 


Dr. Bronners 18-in1 castile soap. I've included a link with a small sample size, I seriously URGE you to give it a try, YOU WILL LOVE IT!!


Yes, I use this for my facewash, bodywash, I shave with it, and I clean my bathrooms, and kitchen with it. It is AWESOME on grease, and clearly, cleans yucky stoves too. Oh, and no I'm not crazy, I'm just honest, when I say I love this stuff. Ask me anything, and I will tell you all about my experience with using it, including some things, that might scare you, at least initially!


Ok, lets get to this stovetop, shall we?
Oh, wait thats not a nasty dirty stove, no, that my dear is some roses my hubby, and son got for  me. I din't have a vase, so in the pickle bottle they went, lol. I love it!!! Oh, and a month later, these babies are still looking BEAUTIFUL, I will take a pic and show you guys tomorrow.

Ahhh, there's the shamefull thing, shameful, I tell you. 

Here's my original bottle, I have since tried the lavender, which is in there now, BUT, I got a large bottle, and just filled this one. There's my baking soda, in an empty yogurt container, gotta love that too, he he. 

I do have those tray thingies, that are supposed to prevent your stove from getting all yucky, but clearly gunk has a way of finding itself under there. Think, overflowing tea, milk, soup, yeah you get the picture.

My front two burners are clearly the worst, and need a good scrubbin.

So, simply squeeze some face wash on there, careful it's very concentrated, and take your wet sponge, and dump a bunch of baking soda and start scrubbing. I wanted to save my fingers, and nails, you know what I'm saying, so I used a butter knife instead. Worked a MILLION times better, and your fingers will thank you. 

Oh you'r finished scrubbing, OK, take a wet cloth and rinse, and wipe. 

Ummm, OK, I admit having mirrors above your stovetop that you use A LOT, is not a good idea, BUT, you just see how naked it looks without them. I love my DOLLAR STORE mirrors, so there. BUT, dang they are DIRTY. 

See what I mean, NAKED,,,, ewwwww,,,, BUT, omg, look at that stove. I told you shaving cream will do the trick. 

Ahhh, all clean!!!

This is damage from LONG ago, when we tried cleaning it with OTHER stuff, and it got scratched up so badly. My method, will not damage, DEF plus. Oh, and this stove is a good 8 years old, NOT bad, for being abused daily, don't you think?

Hello little fat man, I love you. Now see how much better it is with the mirrors up, I just love it. Plus I get to check myself out when I'm cooking, WHICH is all the time, so I guess I do a lot of checking myself out, lol. NOT, but it is perfect for having eyes in the back of my head, if you catch my drift!

What do you think, do you like fat man???

It's all clean now, but oh man LOOK at that mess in the mirror. Does it ever end?

I'm seriously happy you stopped by to see me. Make sure to LINK UP to this weeks party, and you might be featured on my new FEATURE SPECIAL SIDEBAR SECTION, for a WHOLE WEEK!!!
