Frugal Village: Remove hairspray residue

Dear Sara: I had a longterm house guest, who was an abundant user of hairspray. When she moved out recently, I noticed that the bathroom door, which she always stood in front of to do her hair, is coated with the sticky residue from her hairspray. The door is a stained polyresin door, and I'm unsure as to how to get the residue off without ruining the finish. Can you suggest any solvents? Thank you. —  Debbie K., email Dear Dewey: Wash your towels alone (without any other articles of clothing), in hot water at the highest water level, and use baking soda, washing soda, borax or Charlie's Soap (www.charliesoap.com) instead of your usual laundry detergent. Use 1⁄4 cup (up to a cup if you're able to) vinegar in your rinse cycle — using the fabric softener reservoir — and a double rinse cycle. Then dry. If you find that the towels still have buildup and are still quite scratchy, continue to launder with the above products. It might take a couple of washes to remove all the residue. You might need to check the hardness of your water, too. Dear Anne: For holiday storage, I really like giant popcorn tins, plastic coffee canisters, large plastic kitty litter buckets and shoe boxes. The plastic bags with zippers that comforters come in work well for garland, wreaths and stockings, too. I did invest in some plastic totes. You can find the Christmas-themed totes and even plastic laundry baskets on sale after Christmas. Keep a few snack or appetizer recipes on hand. You can whip something together in no time rather than ordering takeout. For example, you might want pizza or doughnuts. Try making cinnamon tortilla strips. Cut tortillas into strips (a pizza cutter works well) and spread a small amount of butter on top, or spray with cooking oil. Then sprinkle the tortillas with cinnamon and sugar and put them in a 350-degree oven for five minutes. You can also fry a few plain tortilla strips in oil until they're light golden-brown. (Fry a few at a time.) Drain the strips briefly on paper towels, then drag each of them through a sugar-and-cinnamon mixture. Preheat the oven at 400 degrees F. I placed a piece of parchment paper the size of my pan on the counter and sprayed it with Pam. I then rolled out my square pizza crust. I placed the cheese sticks on the dough, spaced evenly apart, and cut the dough into individual strips. I rolled the cheese up in the dough, then cut and pinched the ends so as to make sure that no cheese was peeking out.

Personalize A Homemade Food Gift Basket

Food can be given as gifts to anyone  for holidays or other special occasions. These food gifts are very popular among family, friends, coworkers, or anyone else on your gift list. Creating your own food gift basket can be a very special gift as you can personalized it with the recipient’s favorite candy, cookies, wine, or other food or beverage items.

Make sure the food you are selecting are fresh and check under expiration dates. It’s difficult to include foods that are perishable and require refrigeration, so keep that in mind when you are choosing items to place in a food gift basket. Fresh fruits and vegetables are wonderful items because they are inexpensive, colorful, and readily available. However, it’s better if you choose fruits that are not yet ripe; oranges, lemons, limes, grapefruits, and apples are good choices because they are more hearty.

In addition to wicker baskets , there are many other containers to choose from. Unbreakable bowls are appropriate for most food themes and it is easy to assemble your gifts in bowls. If you are trying to stay within a budget, shop at your local discount or dollar store. My local dollar store has a nice variety of large plastic bowls and serving trays that are sturdy and attractive. If you decide to use a serving tray, choose one with sides as the assembly will be easier.

Breakfast Basket: This make a great gift for a hostess when you are an overnight guest, or as a housewarming, anniversary or wedding gift. It’s also a nice gift idea for a large family.

Choose a wicker tray or basket with handles as it will be easier to work with than one without handles. Fill the container with shredded brown paper, straw, or purchased shred. If desired, add a couple of rolled napkins. Select food items that one would eat or drink for breakfast; herbal tea, coffee or coffee beans, small bag or box of pancake mix, bottle of maple syrup, jams, jellies, and a small jar of honey for the tea drinkers. If there are small children in the family, include several serving size boxes of dry cereal. Add several fresh oranges or grapefruits and a couple of lemons. Since an overflowing gift basket looks better than a sparse one, fill in any empty spaces with colorful silk flowers or greenery. A nice decorative touch is to include a wooden spoon or a wire whisk tied with curly ribbon or a bow.
