What a great idea. Now why didn't I think of that? IT'S A WRAP. I thought of this column as I was wrap- ping one of those awkward gifts for my grandson's birthday party. Why is it everything for kids comes in a funny shaped package? My solution is the dollar-a-yard fab- ric table at Walmart. I buy a couple of yards of several "kid friendly" or even seasonal prints. Although I have sewn gift bags in the past, I now just wrap them up in the fabric. -- Claudia, Massachusetts ODOR: GONE! I'm not sure why my ice cube trays collect odors, but it's always been a problem. After years of trying everything: air dry- ing for days or soaking in bleach, baking soda and oxygenated clean- ers, etc., I read your column about putting plastic containers in the sun to remove tomato stains. It works for odors, too. I put my ice cube trays in the sun one Saturday, and by evening there was no "freezer odor." It's still gone! And if it comes back, I know how to get rid of it again. -- Tracy, email RECYCLED SCRUBBER. I found a use for the old cleaning head from my power tooth- brush. The stones in my wed- ding rings tend to get dull and dirty from everyday wear, but now I just place an old head on the tooth- brush and spin the dirt away. You can also use the entire toothbrush to use for deep-down house cleaning in smaller places, such as base- boards, corners or between the knobs on you faucets. -- Marcie,Texas CLEAN HANDS. Here's a quick way to make hamburger patties without getting your hands all messy. I use a fold-over sandwich bag and place my hand in it. Next, I dig my hand down into the raw hamburger and grab a patty's worth. Then I turn the baggie inside out leaving the hamburger on the inside, lay it on the counter, and mash it to the size and thickness desired. You can then just fold over the baggie and place multiple patties in a freezer storage baggie or turn Mary Hunt them out on the skillet or grill. No more messy hands. -- Teresa, Ohio QUICK CLEANUP. I have a six- minute kitchen or toy cleanup that I do every night. After I put our son to bed, I set the oven timer for six minutes, and I stay focused on the task at hand. I find that on most nights, I get the toys picked up, the floor swept and dishes nearly done in six minutes. Then I think, "I can clean for six more minutes." Usually in less than 12 minutes, I have finished all I need to do. -- Cathy, Florida SHADY OPERATION. Everyday Cheapskate I keep an old plastic roll-up shade in my car trunk. Whenever I need to check under the car or repair a flat tire, I just roll out the shade. It helps protect my clothes. -- Lori, Wisconsin Would you like to send a tip to Mary? You can email her at mary@everydaycheapskate.com, or write to Everyday Cheapskate, P.O. Box 2099, Cypress, CA 90630. Include your first and last name and state. Health insurance counselors needed Passages Health Insur- ance Counseling and Advocacy Program (HICAP) is looking for individuals to help people with Medicare navigate the complex health care system. Beginning in 2011 the first "baby boomers" began to enter Medicare and it is estimated that over 10,000 boomers turn 65 each day and they'll keep turning 65 until 2029. Why should boomers or anybody choose to vol- unteer? Research has proved that volunteering is beneficial to the volun- teer and that there is a strong relationship between volunteering and the health of volunteers. Volunteers have lower mortality, greater func- tional ability and lower rates of depression. Com- parisons of the health benefits for different age groups have shown that older volunteers are the most likely to receive greater benefits from vol- unteering. Historian Steven Gillon calls boomers "the largest sin- gle generation in our country's history" and by volunteering boomers can continue the idealism the generation is known for. After thorough training both on and off the job, HICAP volunteers help clients understand Medicare, including sup- plemental and drug insur- ance, Medicare health plans and long term care coverage. Volunteers become registered with the Cali- fornia Department of Aging, and provide answers to many ques- tions and problems that confront Medicare recipi- ents. Interested candidates can call Tim Sonnenburg at 898-6641 for a job description and applica- tion. Training begins Feb. 20. HICAP is a program of Passages, an organiza- tion dedicated to help older adults and family caregivers with important services to empower them to remain confident in their ability to sustain and enjoy independent lives.

Opportunity for kids to learn to fly fish Local fly fishers from the Shas- ta Trinity Fly Fishers and Shasta Mayflies will again be sponsoring six youth, ages 10 through 15, to attend a week-long fly fishing camp this summer.

For the past fourteen years, The Fly Shop of Redding has run a kid's Fish Camp, being held at its private preserve, Antelope Creek Ranch, near Weed.
