I'm looking for some old school, cool, crisp bed sheets. The kind you used to love sliding into when you snuck into bed with your nana. The weather here is hot and humid, and there is no AC and the fans just aren't cutting it at night anymore ( Read more... )

Fluffiest comforter!

Hi all! My best friend is on the hunt for the thickest, fluffiest, biggest down comforter! She's looking for one in white. Thickness is the most important thing on her list of requirements. I'm trying to help her out.

Any ideas on where she could find one?

I feel like I post here way too much.

Anyone have any suggestions on how to deal with the following? The portable A/C I just bought doubles as a dehumidifier. I need to run a hose from the dehumidifier water bucket to some place where it can drain. I know drains are supposed to go 'downhill,' but my options are kind of limited here. I can't lift this 200 pound unit up into the ( Read more... )

Floor unit/portable ACs?

First of all, thanks so much to whoever gave me the Lestoil suggestion in the last post. It worked perfectly! Before I put the shirt in, half of it was all darkened from the oil I spilt on it which I thought I had no hope of getting out. Poured a little of the Lestoil on it and rubbed it in, let it sit for a few minutes before turning on the ( Read more... )

How do you get oil stains out of clothing?

So apparently somewhere between setting my oil-laden baking tray/pan thing down to let it cool off and moving it to the dishwasher, my careless ass forgot that "OHEY THIS THING IS LIKE A 1/2" FULL OF OLIVE OIL!" when I tipped it over from the stove to go put it in the dishwasher. My brain skipped over the step where I dump the used oil into a ( Read more... )
