Use White Vinegar for Cleaning

I like cleaning with vinegar, but I found that the white vinegar is my preference. I ran out and had apple cider vinegar and that smelled so bad with what I was cleaning, it was like there was a reaction to whatever I was cleaning at the time.

White vinegar also works great to get all that softener out of your towels and they return tho their prior absorbancy. Fabric softener cuts down on how absorbent the towels are.
