Food Sticking to Stainless Steel Skillet?
I have a Wolfgang Puck set of pans and I love them. I have very little problem with food sticking to them. I do as fionarx suggested..I heat the pan with oil (and it does not have to be a lot, just enough to cover the bottom of the pan) and once the food is...
Keep Cats Off Kitchen Counters
I had the same problem during the night. What worked for me was a cheap roll of masking tape. I turned the tape sticky side up over the counter leaving almost no room for the cat to step without stepping on the sticky side of the tape. It took a few days, but...
Storing Large Bags of Dog Food
I use a large clear plastic bin (holds 2 37lb bags of dog food) with the locking handles...it allows me to see without opening it how much dog food is left, and the bin is low enough that the food at the bottom is able to be reached easily. For us, it keeps...

Rat Trap

Looking For Legitimate "Type-At-Home" Program?
I did a search on the type at home program, and Id like to add my 2 cents. The first rule of thumb for any job is that if you have to pay THEM to work, its a scam. Type at Home wants a $49.99 one time charge. That will upgrade you to the VIP Members Area and...

Phone Safety: Telephone Number Search
Another site to check is dogpile.com...they also have a reverse look-up for phone numbers. Its not quite as obvious as Google. You first have to go to dogpile.com....then click on *white pages* without putting any info in...then click on *go fetch* and it brings...
Cats Knocking Down Knick Knacks?
I had the same problem with my cats jumping on the counters. Spraying water wouldnt have helped me because they only did it at night. What finally broke them of their habit was taking masking tape and laying it sticky side up on the counters at night. I used...

Cat Keeps Returning to Previous Home?
Cats seem to get attached more to places than people. Try making her just an indoor cat for awhile until she realizes that your new home is now her place. The good news tho is that your old home isnt far away and you know where to find her.
Telephone Warning for Kids
Theres another site to check for this too...Dogpile.com They have a reverse lookup for phone numbers, then displays them complete with name, address, and a map. You can have it deleted, but check back often. They seem to take their time deleting information...
