How to clean a bathroom fast

Got unexpected guests on the way and an icky, cluttered bathroom?

The December issue of "Good Housekeeping" reveals how to fake super clean orderliness in five minutes -- assuming you can find the paper towel roll and a bottle of rubbing alcohol.:

• Tuck stuff from the vanity into the cabinet or drawers.

• Close the shower door or stretch out the shower curtain.

• Wet a paper towel with rubbing alcohol to both clean and shine and wipe down the mirror, sink and countertop.

• Use a new alcohol-dipped towel to go over the toilet seat and rim.

• Clean up spots and hair from the floor with a third water-dampened paper towel.

• Put out fresh hand towels.

• Dump the wastebasket trash in a larger trash can and return the wastebasket to the -- now tidy -- bathroom.
