Eco-Friendly Tips - Using Lemons

Make More Juice Out
1. Put it in hot water for a bit and then roll it around;
2. Nuke it for about 10 seconds, like the above method but faster.

Lemon Freshener
I use the lemon for a natural deodorizing of our homes instead of those chemically fake stuffs.
1. After squeezing the juice out of lemon slices, don't throw the peel away. And put the peels through the garbage disposal. They help clean the blades and freshen the drain. (Orange peels are ditto here.)
2. Squeeze a few drops of lemon into your vacuum cleaner bag before vacuuming. The air flow will give your house a clean lemon scent.

Lemon Cleaner
1. Mix lemon juice with vinegar and some baking soda to make a good cleaning paste.
2. Cut a lemon in half and sprinkle baking soda on the cut section. Then you can use the half lemon to scrub dishes, clean surfaces and remove stains.
3. Use lemon juice directly to soap scum and hard water deposits, which helps dissolve these.
4. Fill your coffee pot with slices of lemons, salt and ice cubes. Add just a splash of water and shake.

PS: If you are dieting, use the juice (a quarter of lemon) on your salad instead of dressing.
Savings: over 200 calories.
