Again, from my paper files. A list from Real Simple magazine. January 2012
for the kitchen...
Sterilize a sponge by popping it in the microwave for a minute or throwing in the dishwasher for a cycle. Replace every couple weeks.
Douse stains on the stove with a solution of water and dish soap. After 10 minutes, wipe with a damp sponge.
When wooden utensils and cutting boards start to feel rough, buff with 400-grit sandpaper. Rub in a food-safe mineral oil with a soft cloth; let soak in for a few minutes; wipe off excess.
for the bathroom....
dry the toilet brush before putting it away: position the brush head over the water by closing the lid on the handle.
for the bedroom....
once a year, remove the clothes from your closet. Dust and vacuum the ceiling, walls, shelves, baseboards and floor.
for the living room...
clean remotes and keyboards weekly with a well-wrung-out disinfecting wipe. Use a fresh cotton swab with rubbing alcohol to swab around buttons.
each week alternate the place where you start vacuuming the carpet.
Good little list!
