When I used to have a microwave, I would take a dishrag, wet it profusely and put vinaigre on it and put that in the microwave for 30 seconds. You evidently need to wait until you can handle the dishrag and then use it to clean out the microwave. This way I had no extra bowls to handle or making sure I don't spill boiling water on myself, but if the dishrag had any microbes on it, they had been microwaved out of existence prior to cleaning the microwave. :-) Love your channel !! Soo relaxing.

It makes me smile that my grandparents (born at the end of the 19th century in France) and my parents already implemented these principles, without the help of youtube :) I learned from them, and am so grateful to them! Also, my mum always advised us not to leave a room empty-handed, if anything in it needed to be taken to another room. And what needed to leave our home was always placed by the main door. Now I'm a grandmother, and my children and grandchildren are continuing the tradition. It doesn't mean our homes are perfect, but it is true that helps so much in keeping a home (or workplace) tidy, relaxing and pleasant!

The core issue for many cluttered homes is the overwhelming task of creating infrastructure, an organized place for everything. I’m constantly stunned at how poorly homes are designed. Fixing this is one weekend at a time, and only then do one minute at a time tasks become meaningful. 🤓 Love the video. Thank you!!

I have finally gotten my house in good order and feel like I have some control over my life. My Nana was very much a minimalist and kept her home simple and in order. As kids, we 3 granddaughters made fun about it but that stopped years ago as we saw the value in how and what she did. Your habits are so similar that your videos just warm my heart. Plus they are very calming and your voice runs my anxiety out of me. I just wanted to say thank you. I'm sure you have heard similar before but it was important tonight to tell you here. Your videos brighten my days. Thanks again!!

I am a widowed Mom of 2 and there is no excuse not to keep your communal areas clean and neat. When I know someone is coming over, I just make sure the hallway bathroom is ready, which takes about a minute. A quick wipe down, and fresh towels is all it takes. Airing out our home every day is a must. I have a question for you Benita.... with the separation of your floor boards, are you concerned that, eventually, dust and dirt will fill them up?

I started to keep the house really organised when I was selling my last home in order to keep it always ready for viewings. I have now adopted the same routine in my new home. I always multi tusk now when waiting for the kettle to boil or something to cook, I clean or declutter a drawer in the kitchen or wipe down doors or plug sockets. Bathroom is always cleaned after use. All these things only take a few minutes and are very easy to achieve, making the deep clean every so often much less hard work. Selling my home totally changed how I approach housework, I actually enjoy cleaning and tidying now. You do many of the things I do!

My mother used to say, if you’re leaving a room, glance around and see if anything needs taking elsewhere on your way out. Like a coffee cup or an envelope from a document. Put the cup in the sink, or dishwasher, put the envelope in the recycling if appropriate and the contents somewhere secure if appropriate and deal with it with the priority it is due. Never go empty handed. When I came in from school, my uniform had to be taken off and play clothes put on, folding the uniform for next day. We didn’t use washing machine every day.

Hi Benita, beautiful video as always, can I suggest you use a mug or jug in the microwave instead, does the same job but has a handle for grabbing, making it easier and safer when the water is hot 🔥. Thanks again for all the suggestions.

That a good idea, I just feel that the bowl gives off more steam around it. But maybe that’s not so.

Happy New Year. Thank you for your many videos. Again, you have provided a useful tip to help me keep my small living space clean and organized. One of the first tips you offered years ago was to re-think the "why" of using kitchen drawers. I was surprised I was using kitchen drawers the same as my mother! Today you showed the use of bags on hooks for holding disposables. Eureka! I have the same-sized trash bins that I used in my house, and now I have a small apartment. One hanging bag for trash and 1 bag for recycling will save so much space and encourage me to remove trash every 2 days instead of weekly. All the best for you in this new year, Benita.

As Chrissyhappy writes, we already do it without thinking. Most of your habits are mine. I have little space for clothing, so I change them only in spring and fall by turning them from back to front. My decluttering clothing time. And Bonus is such a civilized cat, I have to wipe my countertop in the morning, sure thing, little footprints of my floof monsters. Thanks for sharing 👋

Little floof monsters! Bonus never goes on the counter top, Mini didn't either. I didn't train them, I think they were taught before we got them as kittens! Still blows my mind!

Hi Benita, You seem to live very mindfully and intentionally. Sometimes I ask myself while doing simple tasks "what would Benita do?" and that slows me down and keeps me intentional and present. Just love that feeling. I wonder, is that a natural way that you have always been? Is it it cultural, or has it become a practice for you over the years? Thank you as always for sharing your way.

I think it’s something that’s developed over the years. I’ve cut out what doesn’t vibe with me. I don’t follow traditions, I make my own etc.
