CLEANING
We’ve all been there—one minute, you’re jotting down notes, and the next, there’s ink all over your favorite shirt. Did you know that a little hairspray can work wonders on those stubborn ink stains?
MABEL’S WISDOM
A Tried-and-True Saucepan Cleaner
Back in my day, we didn't have fancy cleaners to tackle burnt-on food in our pots. Here's a simple trick I used that works like a charm.
First, sprinkle a generous amount of baking soda over the burned area. Add just enough water to make a paste and let it sit overnight. The next morning, scrub it gently with a sponge, and you'll see that stubborn food lift right off.
Remember, sometimes the old ways are the best. Happy cleaning from Grandma!
PLANTS & GARDEN
