Household Tips for Lawn & Garden – Protect Plants from Frost

December 14, 2011
  • Use burlap, linen or newspaper as a covering to protect plants and shrubs from frost.
    • Do not use plastic garbage bags. Plastic and vinyl materials trap moisture and can actually do more harm to your plants than no protection at all.
    • When there is a threat of frost, cover your plants before sunset.

Household Tips for Lawn & Garden – Watering

November 16, 2011
  • Light watering of your lawn causes grass roots to turn up and become shallow. Always thoroughly drench your lawn.
  •  Early mornings are the best time to water, when cooler air and calm winds mean less evaporation. Watering in early evening can be almost as effective, provided the wind is calm and the lawn has ample time to dry before darkness falls. Nighttime is not encouraged mainly because the grass stays wet until well after sunrise, an invitation to fungi.

Household Tips for Lawn & Garden

October 19, 2011
  • Let new grass grow to at least 2 ½ inches high before mowing. Never mow any grass to less than 1 ½ inches.
  •  Aerate your entire lawn every two to three years, and high traffic areas yearly. Aeration is simply poking small holes in the dirt to loosen compacted soil and improve moisture penetration.

Household Tips for the Bathroom – Easy Cleaning

October 12, 2011
  • Loosen dirt before cleaning the bathroom by filling the tub with the hottest water possible. The steam will loosen the dirt faster.
  • A solution of white vinegar and water, used sparingly, will cut through stubborn soap scum residue, but always wear gloves and rinse completely afterward.
  • To clean fixtures, dip a cloth in kerosene or rubbing alcohol to remove sum and spots from your bathroom fixtures
  • Vacuum the bathroom floor with your vacuum cleaner to pick up all the hair and dust bunnies that are scattered about. If you don’t, your floor will be a nightmare to clean with a mop or sponge.

Household Tips for the Kitchen – Splattering & Sticking Foods

October 5, 2011
  • Always heat the frying pan before adding oil or butter. This will keep things from sticking to the pan. Boil vinegar in a brand-new frying pan to keep things from sticking to it. Splattering can be prevented by sprinkling a little salt into the the pan.
  • Stop boil overs: Spaghetti will not boil over or stick together if you add a small piece of butter or a few table spoons of oil to the water. The same holds true for rice.
  • Scalded Milk: Add a bit of sugar (without stirring) to milk to prevent it from scorching. Rinse the pan in cold water before scalding milk, and it will be much easier to clean.
