I've been doing this for 10 years. It's cute and easy to wash! I just laid three right over the rod with the middle one on top and so they "point" down. ... View related article. |

Excellent advice! Our friends and family think we are nuts for doing these things when a storm is coming. Thankfully we have never had to experience what you did, but we have peace of mind knowing we are prepared! ... View related article. |

| RE: Mall Scavenger Hunt and Other Party Ideas |
The mall idea is fantastic!! My girls are already planning their 17th birthday and I have a hunt to plan!! THANK YOU!!
As for the hotel idea, if you forget the limo it is still a (higher end) thrifty idea! Renting the YMCA for a pool party or doing a bowling party is really expensive. Having a pool party at a nice hotel with a private room for changing sounds great. Plus the parents getting it for the night combines two in one! ... View related article. |

| RE: Chocolate Chips Turned White in Freezer |
|
I read somewhere that this happens when the chocolate changes temperature too fast. If it is sealed well, put in the refrigerator for a few hours and then in the freezer and then the reverse when you remove it, it's not supposed to get the white on top. I have heard this from a few different sources, but haven't done it yet myself. ... View related article. |

I love Bar Keepers friend and have been using it for 15 years, but that's what I ruined my kitchen faucet with. Maybe because I have such hard water I just used too much for too long! ... View related article. |

| RE: How Can I Wear My Frizzy Hair? |
|
I have the same problem! A few months ago I stopped shampooing my hair every day. I still shower and use conditioner every day, but I only shampoo about every 5 days. The first week was the hardest!! My sister-in-law has the same problem and recently started doing this as well. She couldn't beleive the difference. I also put on a little Sunsilk Hydra TLC (the pink bottle) while my hair is still damp. It's like a leave in conditioner. Hope this helps. ... View related article. |

| RE: Cleaning Chrome Fixtures |

We have very hard water and this was a problem as well. I ruined my kitchen faucet trying to scrub it off, but have since found an easy solution. For light spots and regular cleaning mix equal parts vinegar and water in a spray bottle, spray the area and let sit for 5 -10 minutes. Then wipe with a soft cloth and repeat as necessary. When spots are gone make sure you rinse off the vinegar well. If you have a heavy build up, then cover the area with paper towels and saturate them with full strength vinegar. About every 5-10 minutes give it a little rub and reapply vinegar as needed. I do this while I'm doing my weekly cleaning. It also works on dish drainers, sinks, and tubs. Do not use harsh chemicals on chrome because it will eat the finish, and always rinse off the vinegar well when you are done. ... View related article. |
