This page is dedicated to tips for making your life easier. I am trying to put up new tips each week. With the help of anyone who reads this, it could become a great resource on the web.


For a quick bathroon refresher use the paper towel from cleaning the mirror to wipe down the commode. It won't sterilize or deep clean, but it does a nice job for in-between-cleaning freshening up. It's also a quick fix when unexpected company arrives.


If you are like me, your microwave gets used - alot! Sometimes, things are left in for too long and brown marks are left in there. Well, one way to get them out is to use dishwasher detergent. It may not be the best thing for in there, but it got every stain out of my microwave. Including the one where my brother-in-law burned a microwave hamburger!! Just be sure to rinse it out very well.


This tip is something I learned when I got my dining set out of storage. All the white on the furniture was covered with soot. I found out there had been a fire in the wharehouse. I discovered that baking soda would remove the smoke stains from the painted white surfaces without damaging them. It looks much better and cleaner. It also removed the odor. Just do a spot check in an inconspicuous area before using this on your furniture. Good luck!


As always, if you have a tip you'd like to share, please fill out this form. I will try to get your ideas up within two weeks of receipt, and I will credit you on this page. Unless, of course, you'd prefer to remain anonymous.
