Ok how do people manage to do their things so quickly? Took me ages just to clean 3 cupboard fronts :rotfl: Have you all got tiny kitchens? I think I have about 15 cupboard fronts and about 7 drawer fronts to clean, and a small girl who's been drawing on them as well :rolleyes: Then with worktops I have about 5 different ones to clean off and they seem to gather clutter far too quickly!

Morning Gryfon. :hello:

I have 14 cupboard fronts and 5 drawers in my kitchen. The first time I cleaned them it took ages. Now I wipe them down every week in the kitchen list. It takes about 10 -15 minutes to do them all, toothbrush into the edges, plus kickboards, and wipe them dry with a tea towel.

What has small girl drawn on them with?

31/200 freecycled 11 things in one go!

espresso pot bubbling.... anyone want one? :coffee:

Gryf, I have a large kitchen. The secret is to do them often. I've got in the habit now of giving things a quite wipe when I notice mucky spots on them. So, when it comes to the weekly wash down, it's not half so timeconsuming or difficult.

ETA - I see SarahSh beat me to it!

Morning Soappie!

Gryfon

Thanks The normal pencil was easy to get off, the coloured pencil took a bit longer :rotfl: And all the muck on them seems to be superglued on :rolleyes:

I was going to say exactly the same thing The first week of flying was the hardest but its getting easier as I no longer wait to 'see dirt' before I wipe or clean something - so it doesn't take much time. I too give the cupboard fronts a wipe down most mornings. The kids are older so not drawing on them any more (I hope!) but they regularly spill food & drinks down them & the cats & dog jump up against them so there's pawprints.
