Sticky notes, instant messaging, zip-close bags -- these are just some of the things I use and love and wish I had invent- ed. When I was reading through the following reader tips, I had the same thought: Why didn't I think of that?! RECIPES ON THE GO. I like to keep recipes for quick, simple meals on index cards in the glove compartment in my car. If I am run- ning late and need to pick up some- thing quick and easy for dinner, I just select a card; it has the recipe and a grocery list right there. -- Damian D., Colorado TOOTHPICK HOLDER. I need- ed something to hold toothpicks, so I cleaned out a short votive candle holder. It is just the right size and looks good, too. -- Tara H., e-mail SNAPPY BOOKMARK. Those metal snap hair clips make great, inexpensive bookmarks. You can snap the point of the clip so it points directly to the place on the page where you stopped reading, and the clips hold on to the pages without ripping them. You can buy a sheet of them at the dollar store. -- Raquel W., Florida NO-FRIZZ CURLS. I have curly hair, but I don't buy gel for curly hair. Instead, I apply regular condi- tioner after shampooing, but I don't rinse it out. Then I just towel-dry before I blow-dry my hair and scrunch it without a brush. Some frizz may appear again, but I simply place a small amount of conditioner in my hand and work it through the frizzy areas. My hair stays soft and is not sticky. -- Marianne R., Pennsylvania FREEZE IMPOR- TANT PAPERS. I keep my important papers in a heavy freezer bag in the deep freezer. I hear that in a fire, the inside of the freezer doesn't burn easi- ly. Besides, the bank said there is a waiting list as long as my arm for safe- deposit boxes. -- Jill N., Florida size and frost more cakes or cup- cakes with the same amount. A nutritional benefit to this is that you'll eat less sugar and fewer calo- ries per serving. -- Sue K., North Carolina CABINET Mary Hunt HAIRCUT TRICK. Before cutting your child's (or spouse's) hair, rub down his/her neck with cornstarch. This will keep the cut pieces of hair from sticking to his/her skin and causing it to itch. My son used to cry as if he were dying whenever I cut his hair. Now haircuts are tear-free. -- Jan J., Alabama DOUBLE THE FROSTING. When you buy a container of cake frosting, whip it with your mixer for a few minutes. You can double it in Everyday Cheapskate MAKEOVER. Wish you had the funds to update your kitchen? Instead of installing brand-new cabi- nets, save some money by switching out the old han- dles or knobs for brand- new ones. They'll give the whole room a new look. -- Grace M., Michigan CHILL THE WRAP. To make your plastic wrap easy to control, store it in your refrigerator. It won't be so prone to stick to itself. -- Marsha H., Ken- tucky 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.

Today’s Burning Issue It is a little known fact that, in the beginning, chimney sweeps were dragon doctors. Although a tame dragon was a great source of warmth they suffered from sore throats and respiratory ailments which they expressed in uncontrolled, and fiery, exhalations. Professional sweeps saved homes and whole villages by keeping dragons healthy. “Our installation required creativity, time, and thoughtfulness and they did not cut corners with shoddy work.” L.D.
