| RE: Soap Scum on Marble |

Lemon Oil. The citric acid of the lemon cuts right through soap scum, but it not at all harsh. Try to get pure stuff, not something that has other additives. Make sure to wash the area well after, so it's not slippery. ... View related article. |

I'd just roll with it and not try to make it all uniform. Perhaps she could splash diluted bleach all over the shirt to intentionally cause fades and markings. Then dye it any color she wants. The unique markings will look intentional. ... View related article. |

One option would be to use a little mayonnaise and a wash cloth on the spot. It's just mayonnaise and can't hurt anything. But, this gets water marks off wood furniture and might help. Good luck. ... View related article. |

|
It's an acid, just like lemon juice or wine. Asking which one to use is tough because they all have a different purpose and outcome. My word of advice would be to start w/ ones like a red-wine vinegar or a balsamic. Don't spend your money on the most expensive ones on the shelf. Just to get your feet wet - I'd go 'google' vinegar recipes and start with a real recipe, unless you're comfortable in the kitchen experimenting. Good luck. ... View related article. |

|
My first recommendation is make some things that can freeze - then who cares if there's extra (examples: Lasagna, Baked Mac-n-Cheese). There are dozens of web sites to help figure this out. Go to www.google.com and type in "Estimating Food Quantity Party" - and there will be dozens of sites where you just type in the # of people and it helps do the rest. ... View related article. |

Bring her to the vet. They can do a simple blood test and first find out if she has a thyroid issue - which can be brought under control with a very inexpensive medicine. It may not be your dogs fault (or yours). If they determine nothing is wrong, they'll be able to advise you on how to address the issue. ... View related article. |

Easy way to find out - get a thermometer and place it in there to see if it reads accurately to what you've set. Any air leaks can have some impact. ... View related article. |
