“My makeup brushes,

hands down. Nothing

makes me feel more like a

fully capable adult than

giving my blush brushes

a good scrub.”

“My eyeglasses.

I wipe them roughly

25 times an hour.”

“Using sanitizing

wipes on my door-

knobs gives me

deep satisfaction.”

“Oh, girl. I love

to squeegee my

shower tiles.”

“The bed, by far.

Putting fresh

sheets on and

climbing in

is heaven.”

“The fridge. I empty

it out, scrub it

down, toss expired

goods, and put

everything back, all

organized. Ahhh!”

“I’m addicted to

my power washer.

I can’t wait to break

it out every spring

and clean my deck, my

stairs, the siding on

my house. If you can

use a power washer

on it, I’m there.”

“I do a monthly

deep clean of my

Roomba. I love to

clean what does

my cleaning.”

What do

you find most

satisfying

to clean? “My car. It’s a reflection

of me, and I can’t have

Cheetos spilled everywhere.”
