Now I'm wondering why I didn't take that as a signal to give other durable yet grungy items the same treatment. Today's first tipster sure got me thinking... DRIPPING PAN DILEMMA. I have an electric stove that is proba- bly 10 years old but is in excellent condition except for the dripping pans. I tried everything but couldn't seem to get rid of the buildup of burned-on food. I almost ordered new ones but thought I would try putting one in the oven when I ran the cleaning cycle. Sure enough, it came out spotlessly clean and shiny, with the burned-on food reduced to a bit of ash. -- Sharon, Maryland CAFFEINATED PLANTS. I have taken to pouring the remains of my morning coffee into my office plant. I've noticed that this plant (which also sits by a large window) is much more vibrant than my plants at home because of the acids in the coffee. I've decided to start adding coffee to my house- plants, too. -- Angela, Tennessee GREASED FOIL. Before plac- ing foil over the top of the lasagna (or another cheese-topped casse- role), spray it with cooking spray. This makes taking off the foil when I'm done bak- ing so much easier, and it doesn't pull the yummy topping off the baked dish, either. -- Stephanie, Missouri HONEY BEAR SHAMPOO. I use honey bears for shampoo and conditioner bottles when I travel. I just clean them out when we're done with the honey. They are just the right size for a week's worth of sham- pooing. -- Holly, Col- orado MAGIC SPONGE ribbon and tie one to the second gallon of milk in the outside fridge. When I open the kitchen fridge and see a yellow ribbon, I know I need to buy more milk. This saves us a lot of money, because who buys just the milk when doing a milk run at the gro- cery? -- Nicea, e-mail MOP HEAD REDO. Mary Hunt MAGIC. I use the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser to clean the food splatters remaining on my Corning and Pyrex bakeware items after I've washed them. I use the sponge on my glass oven door, too, with excellent results. -- Anne, Con- necticut Everyday Cheapskate For the best mop, I use the traditional squeeze bucket and mop with the wooden handle and the big clamp. Instead of the rope-type head, I clamp on old fold- ed towels for the mop head. After using them once, I throw them in the wash. Now I never have to clean with a dirty mop head or store a mop that's still wet. -- Marcia, New Jersey Would you like to send a MILK RIBBON REMINDER. I have a teenage son who drinks a lot of milk. We go through a lot of milk, and I have an outside fridge where I keep an additional 2 gal- lons. I cut small pieces of yellow tip to Mary?
