10 Eco Chic Dinner Party Clean Up Tips

Written by Laura Klein   

kitchen clean up

The dress was hot, the heels were smoking and the local, organic food was delicious. It's 10am the next morning, and it's time to clean up after a successful dinner party thrown for 10 of your closest friends. All of your guests left happy and deliciously satisfied. You have an-hour-and-a-half to clean up what you can before you dress and dash to that 12:30 champagne brunch, you and your friends scheduled as they walked out the door at 2am. What's first on the clean up list?

1. Put On Your Favorite Groove'n Music

To get you in the clean up mood, put on your favorite tunes and crank it up! Now may be a good time to finish off that last glass of champagne that's sitting in the bottle (because you know it's going to go bad). Now you're ready to get to work.

2. Put Away Non-Perishable Foods

Despite your best efforts at cleaning up, you may have left out a few non-perishable food items. Remember, store your delicious organic foods in glass containers (not plastic). You don't want those yucky chemicals leaching into your foods, especially meat, cheese or oily foods.

If you don't have a simple recycling system set up in your home, do it (most Americans don't recycle suprisingly). It makes recycling automatic and easy. All you need is one trash can for trash and second for recyclables.

6. Bring in Empty Dishes, Glassware and Silver

If you have room on your kitchen counters, bring in any remaining dishes and wine glasses from the dining room table and around the house.

7. Load The First Round Of Dishes

Get that dishwasher going! Remember to use your favorite eco friendly dish washing liquid.

8. Whip out Your Favorite All Purpose Green Cleaning Product

If you now have open counter space, wipe down those kitchen counters with your healthy non- toxic kitchen spray. Remember most antibacterial cleaners contain triclosan . This is a chemical that the European Union has banned has been linked to cancer, developmental toxicity, skin irritation, and endocrine disruption, While...
