Early spring clean

The sun shone all day in the valley, inspiring me to clean the winter film off the patio doors and kitchen windows. Here is Renee Loux's green approach to cleaning windows:

Mix in a spray bottle:

- 1/4 cup of vinegar

- 1/2 tsp. liquid soap

- 1 3/4 cups water

- 8 drops of essential oil (I used a citrus blend)

Spray on windows and for a streak-free clean, use newspaper! It works beautifully.
