People call it faking a clean house. I don't call it that, and I won't let the word sit over this video. Everybody who ever had a kitchen has done every one of these. The only question is which of them make your house look clean AND get something clean at the same time, because you've only got so many minutes.
Six of these eleven actually clean something. Three are theater, and two of the three are worth doing anyway. The last two make your house worse, and one of them got written on an inspection form in my building.
THE SIX THAT ACTUALLY CLEAN
1. Taking everything off a surface before you wipe it
2. The mirror and the glass
3. A tray under whatever has to live on the counter
4. The vacuum along the edges instead of up the middle
5. The handles, the pulls and the faucet
6. The trash out of every room, not just the kitchen
THE THREE THAT ARE THEATER
7. Making the bed and straightening the couch
8. Shutting the doors on the rooms you didn't do
9. Switching on every light in the place
THE TWO THAT MAKE IT WORSE
10. Putting something over a smell
11. Hiding what didn't fit
The six take under half an hour between them, and that half hour buys you a house that doesn't need the other five. No products, nothing to order.
I'm Mrs. Doris. Thirty-five years running a school kitchen in Scioto County, Ohio, where a man from the county could walk in any morning without warning. I tell you what works, where it stops, and when the common advice has it backwards.
TONIGHT, ONE COUNTER
• Lift everything off one counter, the whole run of it.
• Wipe it corner to corner in one go, not around anything.
• Look at what you put back.
• Leave two things off.
• That's the whole homework.
Now tell me which of the eleven you'd have graded differently. And your county with it, please. I read every one.
