I don't know if I've blogged about this before, but probably. Cuz I'm lame & boring. But it bears repeating:
Mr. Clean Miracle Eraser* is just that: A Miracle!
It cleans walls and fridge handles and the bathtub and leather shoes. And now? It actually cleaned the dull, black, ugly, horrible tiles in front of my fireplace. The ones that I thought were permanently stained. They're still ugly, but now they're clean & shiny.
*For accuracy sake, I should note that this time I used the Scotch Brite imitation, and I liked it even better....
Since we're talking all housewifey, here are other dorky house things you should buy: Press-N-Seal plastic wrap; Method laundry soap, wood floor cleaner and hand soap; super duper industrial Windex; Tidy Cat Multi-Cat litter. (I can't guarantee the performance of the cat litter if you don't have cats. K.)
