CLEANING
We once left a casserole dish in the oven overnight and discovered the next morning that baked-on cheese becomes something close to cement when given 12 hours to set. This guide walks through six proven tricks to restore a gas oven to sparkling condition, even when the mess feels impossible.
CLEANING
Yellow stains on a mattress happen to everyone. Sweat, spills, and time all leave their mark, but most people don't realize that common household ingredients can erase them completely. This guide shares 14 terrific tips that work on even the most stubborn discoloration, so any mattress can look fresh again.
TIP OF THE DAY
Can you really clean a wool rug with snow?
Fresh, powdery snow acts as a natural dry cleaner for wool rugs when temperatures stay below freezing. Lay the rug face down on clean snow, press it firmly into the surface, then flip and repeat. Leave it for 15–20 minutes, then shake or beat the rug to remove all the snow. Snow crystals bind to dirt particles without adding moisture that could cause mildew or shrinkage. |  |
FOOD STORAGE
Frozen eggs can stay fresh for up to a year when stored correctly, turning breakfast staples into long-term pantry heroes. We discovered that a simple ice cube tray transforms scrambled eggs into perfect single-serving portions that thaw in seconds.
FUN FACT
Did a 10-Year-Old Boy Really Fly the World's First Glider?
Sir George Cayley built the first successful glider in 1853, but he didn't pilot it himself. He convinced his terrified coachman to climb aboard and sail across a small valley on his Yorkshire estate. The flight covered about 900 feet and ended with the coachman quitting on the spot, reportedly saying he was hired to drive carriages. Cayley was 80 years old at the time and wisely decided someone younger should test his invention. |  |
