While having a look at the various blogs that are joining with Christine's monthly reflections at Slow Living Essentials, I saw a recipe and link for a citrus vinegar cleaner that I thought might be not only easy to make but effective too!
Since I was making a Lemon and Lime chicken in the crockpot that evening - it seemed serendipitous that I should see a citrus cleaner at the same time! Here is the link to Wendys blog where I first saw the cleaner and the one to the blog that she got it from.
Here's what I did...
I simply peeled the skins off the lemons and limes with a vege peeler.

Here's what I did...
I simply peeled the skins off the lemons and limes with a vege peeler.
And then soaked them in plain cheap white vinegar on the window sill.
Then used it undiluted for my shower and diluted 50/50 with plain vinegar for the benches - Smells great, works just fine!
Just as an aside, I saw some info about using Mandarin peels somewhere too - don't - they turn the whole thing into a gelatinous mess! Have fun and enjoy making your own cleaner!
Score card:
Green-ness: 5/5 Pretty darn green I think - you could just about use it as a salad dressing too I reckon!
Frugal-ness: 5/5 Didn't cost me a cent as I had all those things anyway!
Time cost: All of 1 minute I think - but I wasn't really timing it!
Skill level: If you can peel a potato, you can do this!
Fun -ness: Great fun to make free things that work!
