It’s a special day for some people, but not for me. So I chose to do something I’ve been meaning to do for months – I cleaned my oven. There are quite a few things I’d rather do, like having my nose hairs tweezed out, one buy one, but the oven had to be cleaned so I put on my protective gear and got to work. Okay, it is a self-cleaning oven, but still…
Funny. Do you have any tips for cleaning an oven? How often do you have to clean it? Now, you have me thinking about my oven.
Even with a self-cleaning oven, you still have to clean the racks and mine were really bad because I cook so much. I filled my big sink with hot water, added some dish soap and baking soda, and I boiled some water and added that to make it super hot. Then I soaked the racks, one side at a time because they won’t fit. After about 10 minutes, most of the gunk sponged right off. I don’t know if it was the soap, or the baking soda, or maybe just the boiling water, but I’m doing it the same way next time
