Manic Monday - Kitchen and Dining Room

Sort fridge bringing what needs using soon to the front
[strike]Wipe dining table (clean table cloth if necessary) [/strike]
Level Three
Dust any extra furniture in dining room, checking for cobwebs on way round

Extra Mission
Choose one or more of:- [strike]Wipe the outside of all your small appliances[/strike] Done this - it was quick and easy cos I only have a couple of small appliances
- Clean out the freezer, I find the vacuum cleaner is good for getting up any crumbs in the bottom or stray peas etc. Defrost it if it needs it.
- 27 fling, a good fling to start the week, less clutter less mess, well that's the theory anyway!
- Clean any one cupboard, sort through what belongs in there, take out what doesn't and wipe before replacing

OMG where did today go? :eek: Everyone has achieved so much, so well done everyone! :beer:
Have just cleaned the top oven front, and found that the glass on the inside can be removed by unscrewing 2 metal bits that hold it on, so I've cleaned that too - it has made me realise how filthy the bottom half of the oven is, as the colour contrast is immense, but I've found that the bottom oven has removable glass too, so may give it a go. I used a paste of washing up liquid and bicarb that I heard mentioned on the thread, and it's come up a treat. :j Think I'll leave the inside of the oven til Friday, as I don't have a spare room, so this is usually catch-up day.
Better get going as OH will be home in a min, and will wonder what I've been doing all day.
Will check in a bit later to post crossed out list.
