I loved the part about how to whiten pillows; thanks for sharing!
If you haven't yet discovered the amazingness that is BARKEEPER'S FRIEND, you must check it out!! You can get it in the cleaning aisle of the grocery, near dish soap. It does WONDERS for stainless sinks AND glass cooktops, no waiting required. Just sprinkle liberally, then scrub with a wet blue scotch brite (safe for nonstick) scrubbie pad. Then rinse pad and wipe down again a time or two, until all residue is gone. I also use it to clean and polish my stainless cookware.
Another great tip to clean gas stove cover grates: place 2-3Tbsp ammonia in a gallon ziplock, and place grate in bag. Do one bag each, for all four (or however many grates you have... each grate gets it's own bag.) Seal and let sit overnight. In the morning, wipe clean!

Oh goody. I was about to throw out our cookie sheets and buy new ones. And OMG I always throw the fitted sheets in the drawer without fling them. Amazing!
