Here’s an easy and quick way to clean anything stainless steel….
Do a quick wipe down with a wet cloth. Then use some baby oil to buff out fingerprints and make it shiny. Finally, take a clean rag and wipe off the extra oil. “Wax on…Wax off…..”
Done!
Sorry I haven’t written in a few days. This winter weather has been crazy.
So I finally got up the courage to bake a bake for my darling husband from scratch. I put on my apron and got to work. It doesn’t look professional by any stretch, but it sure is tasty. Hope he enjoys such a wonderful treat 🙂
