In light of the coronavirus, many are taking steps to ensure everything they touch is clean and sanitized. This is even more true when it comes to our kitchen, a place where we are constantly handling foods. It’s hard to know what products or methods are effective and which ones aren’t.
1. Gas Stove
It’s important to make sure you are cleaning your gas stove after every meal with either soap and water or detergent and water. A gas stove is an area in your home that can become a breeding ground for infections over time, if not regularly cleaned.
2. Kitchen Counters and Slabs
Many keep their fruits, vegetables, and other ingredients on their counters or slabs before being washed. It’s recommended that you keep this area particularly clean with a mixture of salt and lemon water.
3. Fruits and Vegetables
When it comes to items we are consuming, we want to be especially sure it has been cleaned properly to lower the risk of contamination. Trying to find a cleaning product for our fruits and vegetables especially one that is natural, and that removed germs, pesticides, and waxes without the use of harsh chemicals can be difficult. Don’t give up, they are out there!
4. Utensils and Storage
The utensils that we are using to eat our food can be easily contaminated. It’s essential that these are washed after every use with a soap or detergent-based solution, and make sure they are completely dry before putting them away.
5. Equipment
Anything that is used in the kitchen must be spotlessly clean as a rule of thumb. This includes microwaves, mixers, grills, toasters, etc. The microwave can be a common place to find dirt, it’s recommended to use vinegar and water based cleaner to avoid mixing harsh chemicals with your food.

The vehicle must be a new vehicle, gross vehicle weight must be under 14,000 pounds, and final assembly must have occurred in the United States.

By Chad Roope, CFA ® Chief Investment Officer On Wednesday, Dec. 10, the Federal Reserve (Fed) cut the Fed Funds Rate by one-quarter of a point (0.25%) to 3.5% as widely expected. The Fed Funds Rate is the baseline interest rate the Fed sets to control other interest rates and money supply throughout the economy. Lower interest rates usually stimulate economic growth as they make money less expensive to borrow, and higher interest rates usually slow economic growth as they make money more expensive to borrow. The Fed raises and lowers rates to try and balance inflation and employment, with the goal of fostering solid economic growth that supports full employment without stoking excessive inflation. As seen in the chart below, the Fed has now cut rates by 1.75% from 5.25% to 3.5% since September 2024, after an aggressive hiking cycle and pause that started in March 2022. The hikes that started in March 2022 were designed to slow economic growth to stave off one of the largest inflation spikes in U.S. history post-COVID. The Fed then judged in September 2024 that the mission had largely been accomplished and that rates needed to come down to support employment and the economy. Now, however, we have likely entered a new phase. Fed Chairman Jerome Powell indicated last Wednesday that the Fed is now “well positioned to wait and see” given the rate reductions since September 2024. We think this means they will hold interest rates steady for some
