A kitchen sink that is empty, impec- cably clean and so shiny you can see your face in it is the key to get- ting the rest of the house to match. Once the sink is in order, these "Everyday Cheapskate" readers have tips and tricks for how to get the rest of the kitchen to match! DIRTY-DISH DETECTOR. I have a way to determine whether the dishes in the dishwasher are clean or dirty. Once the dishwasher is emptied of clean dishes, we immediately fill the soap compart- ment. So if the soap compartment is empty, the dishes are clean. If it is full, the dishes are dirty. All it takes is a quick glance to know for sure. - - Rebecca P., Illinois BLENDER BRILLIANCE. I have an easy way to clean a blender, which is not always the easiest appliance to keep sparkling. When I'm finished using my blender, I put about one teaspoon of liquid dish soap into it. Then I fill about three- quarters of it with very hot water. As I hold the top down secure- ly, I let it run for a few min- utes. Then I rinse it and let it dry, and I have a sparkling clean blender jar. -- J.G., Arizona CREDIT SCRUB-DOWN. My sister-in-law uses expired credit cards and used-up gift cards to scrape off food buildup on pans before she scrubs them with a sponge. It works every time! -- Sandy, Georgia POWER PLAY. I dis- HOT SUDS. When I have pots and pans that have food burned onto them, I fill them completely with water and a few drops of dish soap. Then I bring it to a boil. After the water boils for a few min- utes, the cooked-on gunk comes off easily. I've tried this many times and found that it works well. -- Sheree R., e-mail covered that Power Dis- solver, by Dawn, is the best product to use to remove those yellow greasy spots on your appliances that appear from everyday wear and use. I spray it on and let it set for a moment or two. Presto! The scum just falls off. Power Dissolver also takes years off Grandma's baking and casserole dishes. Here's a warn- ing, though: Don't spray it under a cheaply made hood or stove vent. It will eat through the paint! -- Ronda, e-mail Mary Hunt Everyday Cheapskate ERASE-A-MESS. I accidentally placed a plas- tic bag of hamburger buns on my hot top stove. You guessed it; the plastic melted all over and made a big mess. Instead of reheating and scraping and reheating and scraping some more, I decided to give my Mr. Clean Magic Eraser a try. It worked! The plastic came off almost instantly! -- There- sa F., Oklahoma Would you like to send a tip to Mary? You can e-mail her at mary@everydaycheapskate.com, or write to Everyday Cheapskate, P.O.

Redding Social Security office moving Those who need to visit the Redding office of the Social Security Administration soon will do so at a new location. The local SSA office will move from 2195 Lark- spur Lane, Ste. 100, to 2600 Park Marina Drive, Ste. A. The office will be closed Friday, Sept. 24, due to the move. The new location will open Monday, Sept. 27. “We will actually about double the size of what we have now,” said Linde Ballentine, district manager. “One of the major reasons we’re moving is because of the growth in this area ... our agency has committed to our customers.” Ballentine said the agency wants to have a com- fortable environment for both the people it serves and its employees. While there are no plans to add staff, the new office will have the space to accommodate more employees, she said. A new building will be home to 45 SSA workers. “We’re really excited about it because it’s a brand new building,” Ballentine said. Getting Social Security cards and picking up retire- ment, disability and survivor’s benefits, as well as Supplemental Security Income, are just some of the reasons people stop by the local office, said Ballen- tine. That service area includes 3 counties in California. The office hours will remain the same at 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., and the phone numbers will remain the same.
