A Simple and Thrifty Non-Toxic Scrubbing Cleaner Recipe

I took a crockpot of chili to a get together. Of course on the way it spilled. Once I got to the party I plugged the crockpot in and that spillage cooked and baked on for hours! By the time I got home I really didn't want to deal with it so, I left it for the next day. Oh this was not going to be fun! I tried some dish soap and got a little off but, not too much. It was time to bring out the Jr. high science experiment! Two simple household ingredients. A non toxic cleaner that does the job of most scrubbing cleaners on the market.
Before....so lovely....not! After...so lovely....yes! No more sticky gunky crockpot.
Baked on chili. Not a fun thing to try to get cleaned! I tried scrubbing it with dish soap which took over surface gunk but, did little to get the baked in chili. And it's not like you can run this part of the crockpot through the dishwasher.
Hooray! It did work! Two simple non toxic household ingredients! A simple wipe down with cloth and water and it was cleaned. Keep it thrifty and safe for your family!

    I went through this three times and I can't find what the solution is that you mix together for this miracle cleaner.

    Can you please list the two ingredients?

    I live in a rental house and I have a real problem with my kitchen floor. The kitchen has 12x12 tiles and black glue is coming up between them. Nasty and ruins my socks! We have tried scraping off the excess but we can't get enough off to make a difference. So I also have a white dog that sheds and the hair also sticks to the glue. Help!!
