Hi everyone, Ronnie here. You're listening to Clean with me, the podcast about cleaning to listen to

while you clean. So this episode is not going to be one of my typical cleaning talk-throughs where I kind of try to keep

track of how much time you might want to spend in each room. But of course, I do encourage you

to be productive during the episode as far as, you know, freshen up, light a candle,

and start in your priority areas, whether that's your entrance and living room or your kitchen,

or maybe you just want to use this episode to catch up on dishes or laundry.

But what I'm going to talk about today is simplifying your cleaning routine.

I'm mainly going to be talking about preventing your kitchen from turning into a disaster.

And believe it or not, it is as simple as just serving dinner a different way.

So stay tuned because I have recently had an epiphany on how to keep my kitchen clean all the

time. Now everybody knows that you should go to bed with a clean kitchen. You know, you've got to

wash the dinner dishes, the pots and pans. But I think we all have those mornings where something

went wrong and we get up and there are pots and pans still on the stove with dried on food residue.

Or worse, somebody forgot to even put away the leftovers.

And you've wasted some of the food.

And that's on top of a sink full of dishes, crumbs all over the table, all over the floor, and you're faced with a disaster

kitchen. Now, I'm not going to just preach to you on how you should always clean your kitchen

the night before, because we all know that. And then when it doesn't happen, we kind of beat

ourselves up. Like, why am I lazy why did you know other

people do this every night why did I let this happen but I'm going to kind of explain to you

why it might happen I'm going to tell you why it happens sometimes at our house I mean at least once a week it happens and I'm going to tell you why it happens sometimes at our house. I mean, at least once a week it happens.

And I'm going to explain to you, if not more.
