清洁厨房—Kitchen Cleaning

 One of the chores I dislike the most is cleaning the kitchen. On Saturdays, I usually do a thorough¹ job of cleaning the entire kitchen. First of all, I clean all of the dishes, put them in the dish drainer to air dry, and then scrub² out the kitchen sink. (Because our dishwasher is broken, I have to do everything by hand.) After they are dry, I put the dishes away in the cupboard. Next, I clean off the stove top, wipe down the counter tops, and clean the walls. I also organize the cupboards to make sure we are stocked³ up on food. Once that is done, I put the kitchen chairs on the table, wipe down the legs, and then sweep the floor with a broom and a dustpan. After that, I mop the entire floor.
