Cleaning Things Up

[skipper30]

I am wondering how you clean to make sure you are getting rid of those little crumbs and the like that like to linger around and CC things! I am worried that we just aren't being as diligent in ALOT of ways to keep things clean enough..including little hands. Any helpful advice would be appreciated!!

I had a moment yesterday where I could just hear those crumbs laughing at meknowing that I wasn't really getting them picked up!!

Thanks!

After battling this for months we finally just went gluten-free for the whole house and life is soooo much easier!

I've been wondering about how hard it would be having gluten in the house. Maybe we just make the rule that there's no gluten in the house, but those of us that can still have it, can have it while eating out or at other people's houses.

We are also thinking about the house being gluten free. I am interested what others use to clean with..bleach? What about table tops? Countertops?

What really gets rid of the gluten??

This is what I want to do. But I know I'm up for a battle. It's OK with me. The one year old won't object. The 11 yo and DH aren't going to be easy to persuade.

At my parent's house, my dad has one counter that he uses for gluten foods, one cutting board, one knife. His gluten things are not allowed on the gluten-free side of the kitchen. My dad is also fantastic about wiping up after himself. Even with all the precautions, I still get nervous when I visit. I live alone right now in an entirely gluten-free apartment and I get nervous just knowing that there's gluten lurking in the house that might get me.

I've read of some people making the gluten-members of the family keep their gluten cookies in ziplock bags in the garage and they're only allowed to eat them outside.
