February 2013

To deodorize an old, musty wooden drawer, try this. Put uncooked coffee grounds in the leg of an old pair of panty hose. Tie it shut. Put it in the drawer for a few days.

I have an old blouse that I want to get the perfume smell from getting my asthma
going. Will the coffee grounds work?

You can use dryer sheets- or use a orange peel, or tangerine peel. works great.
Better than coffee because then you have a fresh smell rather than coffee.

I have a very nice Griswold double skillet top, that has a red discoloration to
it. My husband said that he has heard of cast iron turning red, if someone has
made lead bullets in it. Is this true? I would love to use this skillet, but am
concerned of possible lead content.
