IS YOUR HOME READY FOR HOLIDAY-VISITORS? DEBRA JOHNSON--"MERRY MAIDS'" RESIDENT "QUEEN OF CLEANING"--TALKS ABOUT THE MESSIEST SPACES, AND HOW TO EASILY CLEAN THEM. HER RECIPE FOR QUICK OVEN-CLEANING INVOLVES STARTING WITH THE RACKS: PLACE THEM IN A LARGE TRASH-BAG; SPRAY THEM GENEROUSLY, WITH A DEGREASER; LET THEM SIT, OVERNIGHT, IN A VENTILATED AREA; AND, IN THE MORNING, RINSE WITH WARM, SOAPY WATER. THEN, WIPE THE RACKS AND THE WALLS OF THE OVEN--AND YOU'RE GOOD TO GO. WHEN IT COMES TO YOUR TOILETS, SHE ADDS, YOU CAN GET RID OF ANY HARD-WATER DEPOSITS, WHILE YOU SLEEP: POUR A CUP OF WHITE-WINE VINEGAR, AND A FEW FIZZY DENTURE-TABLETS, IN THE BOWL, AND LET IT SIT OVERNIGHT; IN THE MORNING, SCRUBBING WILL TAKE NO TIME AT ALL. AND, TO REFRESH YOUR REFRIGERATOR, CUT AN ORANGE IN HALF; SCOOP OUT THE PULP; FILL THE RIND WITH SALT; AND PUT IT IN A BOWL, AT THE BACK OF THE FRIDGE. VISIT "MERRY-MAIDS"-DOT-COM, TO GET A FREE REFRIGERATOR-CLEANING, AS A NEW CUSTOMER. AND, USE THE HASHTAG "SEASONS-CLEANINGS", ON "FACEBOOK" OR "TWITTER", TO ASK THEM ANY CLEANING-QUESTIONS.
