Hints From Heloise
Dear Heloise: I store dry washing powder in a large liquid soap container. The washing powder stays dry, pours easily and goes to the laundromat without spilling, as boxes sometimes do. A funnel from a large soda container fills the liquid soap container easily. - Gracie Singley, Huttig, Ark.
Dear Heloise: Here’s how to keep your room clean at all times. Whenever you take something out of its place, put it back when you’re done using it. Don’t leave it there. That way, your room won’t be as dirty and it’ll be easier for you to clean at the end of the day. You’ll be surprised how much time you save each day. - Veronica Aguirre, Tom C.
