Good thoughts
Connie

I lived in an area with lots of iron in the water and Tang would get all the stains out of the dishwasher and leave it new looking. <sigh> No dishwasher now

Hot water and dawn. To clean the nuker I slightly wring out my dishcloth and put it in the microwave for 1 minute. Everything just wipes out.

My Mom always used baking soda, but I'm a hot water and vinegar gal too. Works very well! 8-)

I don't know who posted the tip to use amonia in a garbage bag to clean stove parts, but I owe you big time. DS is a very sloppy cook so my stove was looking pretty sad. I put all of my burner stuff in a plastic garbage bag with amonia and set it outside all day. When I brought it in I barely had to scrub at all. I couldn't believe how well it worked. THANK YOU!!!
