Good Housekeeping- Hints from Heloise.

Hints: Do you Microwave?  Fatty and High sugar foods are the cause of those pits that occur on your plasticware.  Try using power no higher than 80% when reheating those foods.

Hints: Did you forget the load of laundry in the washer? Or are you washing something with a musty odor? Put some baking soda in the wash. It'll help freshen things.

A Quick and Tasty Casserole: 6 oz of Ziti or other tubular pasta (about 2 cups): 10 ounces canned chunk chicken or cooked chicken, cut into bite sized pieces: 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese: 1 can condensed cream of mushroom soup: 1 soup can water.

Preheat oven to 350* F. Grease 2-quart casserole. Cook pasta as directed on package; drain. Mix ziti, chicken and cheese; spoon into casserole. Heat soup and water to boiling; pour over ziti mixture. Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until hot & bubbly. (I cover mine because my children don't like the crust that forms.) Substitute ham for the chicken and pizza cheese for the cheddar for a yummy variation.
