    Put a tension rod under the sink to hang spray cleaners from. It saves space but won't take a lot of weight.

    I found acetone or finger nail polish remover will remove almost all of it.

    I still can't picture how you would make the grill cheese in a toaster. Mine only has room for one bread per side. And how would you get the butter on it, to me that is the best part.

    I bought some freezer labels from my granddaughter as part of a school fund raiser. I use the labels on items that I freeze as well as those the fridge. Sure lets me know of the left overs - and dating the items is also a good idea.

    I volunteered to take care of my cousins 6 kids because their father my uncle was on his death bed. That was about 24 years ago. It was getting onto lunch. I grilled cheese sandwiches on sheet pans. One large sheet pan covered 2 burners. Each end held 4 sandwiches. Big old pot of soup and some Hawaiian punch. Later cupcakes in the flat bottom Ice cream cone filled half way with cake batter. They got to decorate their own cakes. Miss Dixie and Mr Reynolds made a very large contribution in assisting. Flat bottom ice cream cone cups when filled 1/2 - 3/4 way with batter will not spill because of the weight of the batter. You can set them on sheet pans. Just bake as usual according to directions.

    I use Dawn. It's my go to for a lot of things. Another thing since most spills are on the front side of the shirt, flip that area over so the paint runs out the same way it went in. Try not to spread around. If I scrub a small area, I scrub from the backside. Working it out of the fabric not into it.
