MABEL’S WISDOM
Sparkling Stove Burners the Old-Fashioned Way
We didn't have fancy cleaners in my day, but we knew how to keep our stove burners spanking clean ! First, remove the burners.
1 cup of vinegar
Enough hot water to cover the burners
Soak them in this mix and let them sit for about 30 minutes, then scrub away any grime with a good old-fashioned brush. Rinse them off, dry them well, and they'll be as good as new. A little elbow grease goes a long way!
CLEANING
We all know the joy of slipping on a fresh pair of white sneakers, only to watch them lose their sparkle after just a few adventures. We once tried to scrub them with a toothbrush, hoping for a miracle.
FUN FACT
The Royal Riddle: Fit for a Queen!
After they were invented in 1762 by John Spilsbury, jigsaw puzzles became a royal affair! Queen Charlotte, wife of King George III, was a big fan of these brain teasers. She would spend hours piecing together these wooden wonders. Imagine the queen herself, puzzling over a puzzle! |  |
