Heloise Dating products before use effective household planning tool
DEAR HELOISE: I find it very helpful to use a marker pen to date certain items in the kitchen and bathroom. I now know I can expect to use three tubes of toothpaste and four bottles of deodorant in a year’s time. I also know how much coffee I’ll use in a year. Dating certain products as they are put into use keeps me posted. This knowledge comes in handy when items I use are on sale. I do not date food items which will be consumed in a short time period but I do date some which will be around for a while. I date such items as a large jar of peanut butter or jelly, a box of waxed paper or aluminum foil, a jar of instant coffee, a container of table salt, and any number of other things. It would be pointless to date a dozen eggs or a pound of hamburger meat, for example, which would be consumed in a matter of days. H.G. I like your idea because it saves shopping time and money when items are bought on sale. By dating them you can keep records on how long it took you to use a product. That’s good thinking and planning. —Heloise FOLDING A SPREAD Dear Heloise: A heavy bedspread can be a nuisance to take off and fold every night and replace on the bed the next day. Here is a way I have devised to make the operation less of a chore. When preparing the bed for sleep, fold back the portion of the spread that covers the pillow. Reaching under the pillow, pull back the spread to the foot of the bed. Then take the fold that is in the middle of the bed and fold that part also down to the foot °*TTh!e portion of spread that hangs to the floor at the foot of the bed should be folded up and placed on top of me folded spread. Next, fold the folded spread lengthwise in half and half again from left to right. Next morning, open the folds from richt to left at the foot of the bed making sure that the drape that hangs at the foot of the bed is facing the headboard. Drop the drape and, by degrees unfold each section toward
the head of the bed making sure that the spread is even on the sides. It sounds complicated but, in reality, is quite easy to do and is a great time-saver every day. A.M. ★ * * You’re right, it does sound complicated but once you have done it you realize its simplicity and ease. Heloise PRE-CHRISTMAS LIST Dear Heloise: Perhaps some of your readers are like me: Each January I began a list of Christmas gift, suggestions. I intend to add to it during the year as things came to mind but when I think of something I usually can’t find the original list. I’ve now solved that problem. I keep a calendar tacked up by the kitchen phone. When I think of a gift I’d like, I write it in the margin on the calendar page for December. By writing it in pencil, I can erase it if I buy or receive the item earlier. No more lost lists, and no frustration trying to think of suggestions for my family at the last minute. Georgia Danenhauer. PRETZEL MEATLOAF Dear Heloise: I just tried something different and, since it turned out delicious, I wanted to share. I had some stale pretzels and, not wanting to throw them out, I crushed them and added the pretzels to meatloaf instead of bread crumbs. No more wasted pretzels. If you try this, remember to cut down on adding additional salt. JoAnn Hoagland MOISTURIZER CREAM Dear Heloise: Whenever I put my finger into a jar of moisturizer cream, I get it under my fingernails or can’t reach all the way down into the bottom of the jar. Now I put the jar on the shelf lying on its side. I reach in over the surface of the cream with the tip of my finger and get out just the amount I need. No waste and no mess under my fingernail. V.H.

DG3F Abby * Parents carry grudge against daughter to grave
DEAR ABBY: I am sitting here brokenhearted over a problem that could have been resolved years ago. My father died last week; my mother died a year ago. Although we were very close when I was younger, they stopped speaking to me six years ago when I decided to live with my boyfriend, whom I have since married. When I first told my parents I was moving in with my boyfriend, they called me “slut, tramp” and a few other names you can’t print. I was over 21 and wasn’t hurting myself or anybody else, but after this move, they wanted nothing more to do with me. When I invited them to my wedding, they didn’t even respond. Now that they are gone, I feel angry and bitter that they could let this one difference come between us forever. They missed the opportunity of sharing their lives with me, my husband and our son. Why ar I writing? Because I hope you will print this as a plea to other parents who feel the way mine did about living together. Please, parents, don’t lock your children out of your lives because their ideas differ from yours. NO NAME, PLEASE DEAR NO NAME: Here’s your letter. I’m sure many parents will identify with it. My mail tells me that although most parents disapprove of “living together,” they accept it rather than lose their children. * * * DEAR ABBY: Recently you printed a letter from a 14-year-old adoptee, asking how to contact one’s birth parents. You advised him to register with International Soundex Reunion Registry in Carson City, Nev. Until I read it in your column, I never knew such a service existed. I have often had a desire to contact the daughter I placed for adoption 21 years ago. I filed my application, and within days, a match was made! (My daughter had filed with Soundex Registry, too.) I have spoken with her on the phone, and we made plans to meet in tbe near future. I am still recovering from the incredible experience. Thank you for making it possible! KATHERINE C.
