DIY Sink Scrub – Everyday Road to Healthy

There’s something about waking up to a clean sink that sets the tone for the day.

At night, I may leave our sofa a jumbled mess of throw pillows and blankets, I may leave things on the counter or the kitchen table, but one thing I hardly ever do is leave dirty dishes in the sink. I love waking up to a clean sink. It doesn’t take long for it to accumulate dishes in the morning, but if it starts out clean, I feel like it’s a fresh start to the day! So I thought I’d share this simple and easy DIY sink scrub I have started using every night to get my sink shiny and clean:

2 cups baking soda

20 drops of essential oil

Add 2 cups of baking soda to a mason jar or similar container. Add 20 drops of your favorite essential oil and stir to evenly incorporate. Enjoy the smell of freshness for a minute.

Sprinkle generously in your sink and add a small squirt of liquid dish soap or pure castile liquid soap.

Scrub gently with a rag or brush and rinse. I like to dry my sink out with my hand towel which I toss in the laundry every night anyway. Then go to sleep knowing you will wake up to a clean, sparkly sink!

Super easy and simple for a happy, healthy home!

Welcome

We’re Angela and Deena, friends who first met in high school back in the ‘90s, when big hair and bright clothes were all the rage. Our bond grew even stronger as we both faced the life-changing challenges of cancer—Angela with her breast cancer diagnosis in 2008, and Deena with her son’s battle against bone cancer in 2010, which he, unfortunately, lost two years later.

These experiences made us rethink our lives and commit to a healthier future for ourselves and our families. We realized that lasting change doesn’t come from drastic measures, but through small, everyday adjustments that gradually build healthier habits.

At Everyday Road to Healthy, we’re sharing the simple, practical steps we’re taking to transition from healthy to healthier. As we move through midlife and beyond, these changes become even more important. Some things will change, and others will stay the same, but we believe every step on this journey is worth it.

We invite you to join our community—share your own journey, follow us for tips, and let’s take this path to a healthier life together, one step at a time.
