Kitchen Sink Scrub

I have the absolute worst kitchen sink in the whole wide world.  When time came to buy it while building our house, money was tight and I never really thought there would be that big of a difference in kitchen sink qualities.  Boy, was I wrong!  Our sink is not nearly slanted enough and seems to catch and hold little pieces of everything it comes into contact with.  It's completely drives me crazy, so I was constantly cleaning and scrubbing it.  Luckily, I read that baking soda is safe for stainless steel, so now this is what I use:

Kitchen Sink Scrub

1 Cup Baking Soda
10-20 Drops Scented Oil

Mix well. Put into Parmesan cheese shaker.  Allow to sit 24 hours before use.  Shake all over sink. Allow to sit if desired. Turn on hot water and scrub.

I have read some blogs stating only to use essential oils, but I use the cheap scented oils from places like Wal-Mart and Dollar Tree and have well pleased. I let the mixture sit in my sink for about 30 minutes, just to get a nice smell and it really does work at removing hardened food residue.
