QOTD - Add household tips & tell which chores you like/dislike

I hope no one minds a 2nd QOTD but as I was scubbing a pan that FH burned cheese or something onto, I wanted to ask all of you.

The chore I dont mind doing at all would be laundry.

And I cannot stand dusting!

And I would like to add that Orange Clean works wonders on the kitchen cabinets.

Don't mind most stuff but HATE polishing silver and drying dishes. Oddly, washing does not bother me.
Our deal at home is that I cook so he cleans.

I hate cleaning the bathroom--well, just really the tub. I don't know the best 'method' and I don't like getting in there with bare feet and scrubbing.

ETA: I don't mind vacuuming

You took the words out of my mouth! You have to practically shower with a rag and cleaning solution to get the dang thing clean - i hate it!

Mopping the floors also sucks.

I love dusting - easy and satisfying.
I love sweeping - same concept.

I was actually a 'cleaning lady' as a side job when I was acting - it was horrible cleaning other peoples dirty stuff (washing dishes with oatmeal crusted in them - pulling hair from the drain...)

okay, now I am going to gag...

Fill the pot with some water and Dawn liquid soap and heat ... then with a wooden spoon gently scrape the pan - it gets the stuck on items off.
