Two helpful hints: keeping bananas fresh, and an organic cleaning solution

    This is a hint my mother gave me:  take plastic wrap and cover the stem of a bunch of bananas.  It keeps the bananas fresher longer.  
     Here is another hint I got at Whole Foods Market.  To make your own homemade-cleaning solution:  mix vinegar, salt, lemon juice, and baking soda ( blog.wholefoodsmarket.com/homemade-cleansing-solutions). I love it when I can share an environmentally safe cleaning product.  Let’s keep the air and water clean for the next generation.
