Everyday things

OK I keep noticing that more and more people don't know how to do everyday things.

Like clean the copper on the bottom of their pans. When you got them they were nice and shiny and pretty then you used them and they got dark or something boiled over on them. You go to the store and look at the shelf of copper cleaners and wonder which one? And the cost $$$$$$ will it work? Well Grandma knows how and no elbow grease!!!!  2 things white Vinegar and salt  clean your pan then turn it copper side up pour salt on the copper then poor a little vinegar on the salt and rub gently around and watch the copper get bright and shinny!! Rinse with hot water and dry.  You may need to do this several times to get it back to being bright as new. So when you wash the pan treat the bottom till its shinny or to keep it that way.

I will try to post something every week on saving time or money or to get it clean better quicker or without the chemicals in the air you breath. If theirs something you don't know how to do or that you think there has to be a better way ask and I'll see what I can do to show you.  

Remember the only dumb question is the one you don't ask.
