CLEANING
We've all been stuck with a super glue mishap that seemed impossible to fix, like the time we accidentally glued our fingers together during a craft project. Discover over 24 ingenious tricks that can save the day and keep those creative juices flowing!
MABEL’S WISDOM
Go Away, Scuff Marks!
Back in my day, we didn't have fancy cleaners to clean scuff marks on the floor. We used a simple, tried-and-true method that works like a charm. All you need is a bit of baking soda and some elbow grease.
Baking soda
Damp cloth
Sprinkle a little baking soda on the scuff mark, then gently rub it with a damp cloth until the mark disappears. It's as easy as pie and keeps your floors looking spick and span, just like in the good old times.
IN PARTNERSHIP WITH BRADS DEALS
There was a time when we had to jot down our shopping lists with pens and brave the crowded malls. Then Amazon came along like a shopping superhero. You're probably enjoying free shipping and exclusive shows, but there's more benefits you might not know about. Make the most of your membership with these 10 hidden perks.
CLEANING
Have you ever tried using a pizza stone and ended up with a crust that could rival your favorite pizzeria's? A friend once turned her casual pizza night into a gourmet experience. Now, we're sharing five amazing ways to make the most of your pizza stone and keep it in tip-top shape.
TIP OF THE DAY
Is Your Comforter Living Its Best Life?
First things first, check that label! Your comforter has a story to tell, and it starts with the care instructions. Knowing the right way to clean it is key, whether it's machine washable or needs a gentle hand wash. Use a mild detergent and set your washer to a gentle cycle. If it fits, toss it in the dryer with a couple of tennis balls to keep it fluffy. Remember, a happy comforter means a cozy night's sleep! |  |
FOOD STORAGE
We all know that moment when we buy a tub of ricotta cheese for a recipe, and then it sits in the fridge, waiting for its next culinary adventure. Here's a fun fact: freezing ricotta can maintain its creamy texture, and with these four fantastic tips, you'll never waste a dollop again!
FUN FACT
Snuggle Up!
Picture this: It's 1912, and Dr. Sidney I. Russell is about to change the way we cozy up at night. He invented the heated electric blanket, bringing warmth to chilly beds everywhere. Imagine the excitement of plugging in a blanket and feeling that toasty warmth spread! It's like a warm hug from history itself. |  |
PLANTS & GARDEN
Imagine stepping out onto your patio and plucking a juicy peach right from a pot—sounds like a dream, right? We once met a woman who grew a lemon tree in her kitchen, proving that anyone can enjoy fresh fruit from their own container garden with the right know-how.
