Just two or three ingredients are all you need for a cheap, natural, and high-quality cleaning product. Essential oils are definitely nice to add, though, and this recipe includes some suggested options like lavender.
1/2 cup baking soda
liquid soap or detergent (see directions)
5 drops antibacterial essential oil*, or lemon or lime juice (optional)
Place the baking soda in a small bowl. Add enough soap while stirring until a frosting-like consistency is formed. If desired, add the essential oil or juice and blend well.
To use, spread the mixture on a sponge and clean the surface. Rinse the surface well after cleaning.
* Good essential oils to use are tea tree oil, lavender, or rosemary.
Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.

The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.
