A Recipe NOT To Try

So, I heard this great recipe to make your own cooking spray. It was cheaper, less expensive, and cleaner. It was -mix one part of cooking oil with five parts of water in a spray bottle. Voila, cooking spray! Right? Wrong! My girls and I have been scrubbing pots and pans for days! Everything sticks to the pans and the muffin pans that I have used for 26 years may not survive. I'm planning to buy steel wool to save them, but I'm wondering if it might be cheaper to but new pans. I know it would be easier!
