Entertaining At Home? Prep and Clean Up Tips from Arm & Hammer

A few weeks ago, I was invited to an evening with Katie Lee -- entertaining expert, celebrity chef, and best-selling author at a private event in SoHo, which was hosted by Arm & Hammer. While I was not able to attend the event where attendees spoke about all things pertaining to prep and clean up when entertainment at home, since Spring is in and my balcony is begging for me to host another Ladies Brunch (replete with mimosas, of course!), I can't help but to share this info with you.

What I love most about Arm & Hammer Baking Soda is that it's cheap and versatile -- for about $3 you can have a pretty good cleaning and deodorizing solution. Before you host that Spring brunch (I'm not the only one who's thinking of hosting a brunch, right?), think of all the things you can do with Arm & Hammer Baking Soda:

In the Kitchen -- Clean your food prep area, wash fruits and veggies, and add a table spoon to your regular dish detergent to help cut grease and foods left on pots and pans. This is so much better than harsh cleaners.

In the Living Room -- Sprinkle Baking Soda on upholstery or carpet, let it sit for 15 minutes, and vacuum it up. Score!

In the Bathroom -- Clean the bathroom floors, wastebasket, and shower curtains by using Baking Soda to remove dirt and grime, leaving a true fresh scent.

In the Dining Room -- Sorry. We don't have dinning rooms in New York City -- we have "dining areas."

Happy cleaning! And happy mimosa-filled brunching!
