I keep the house plenty clean, but cooking is definitely my preferred mode of service. I use all stainless steel or cast iron - no non-stick, I hate how it cooks. In the winter I tend to make more soups and stews, sometime casseroles when I'm limited on time or feeling lazy. My crock pot gets quite a workout too (the simple kind your grandmother has is the best), but I'm planning to switch to a cast iron dutch oven for my slow cooking. I like to make yogurt, kefir and cultured buttermilk, and will soon be taking another crack at kombucha. I'm also going to be teaching myself to can and ferment produce as the summer comes on. We eat only in-season foods, and this year will be making the switch to only locally grown, including meat. Cleaning is mostly accomplished here with my Dyson, and a bucket and rag. I try to use natural cleaning products, like Bronner's, vinegar and baking soda. I admit I love my Magic Eraser though, and it gets a lot of work.
