Is your kitchen sponge getting that grungy smell? Did you know you could use your microwave to nuke away germs? Just wet it and splash with vinegar or lemon juice, then microwave for a few minutes. (Be careful when you remove it — it'll be hot!) Or pop the smelly thing into the dishwasher the next time you've got a cycle to run and voila! A fresh scent.
