Here is an interesting tip submitted by Sue;
If you find you just cannot get rid of cooking smells in the house, try this remedy:
You need a little lemon juice and 6 cloves. Put into a saucepan, add a mug of warm water. Place on a low heat and let the fresh smell saturate the air. Just remember to keep an eye on the pan so it doesn’t boil dry. Best thing is, you can use the liquid 4 times before you need to throw it away.
