I am happy to report "mission accomplished!" After reading an email from K.T., I was really touched. I think I'll follow her lead and offer my help to a few peo- ple I know. FROM PILES TO LUXURY SUITE. My kitchen is pretty well organized, but Mary's kitchen chal- lenge got me thinking about my elderly, ailing mom's home. She is stuck in her bedroom, almost buried under mountains of stuff. With her blessing, I dove in and organized as Mary recommended. After about 20 woman-hours, I presented her with a beautiful, clean, inspiring bed- room, walk-in closet and bathroom. We call it her luxury suite. She loves it, and I feel so good having helped her. Now I have a place to sit when I visit. I'm thinking of head- ing to her kitchen next. -- K.T., email A TOILET'S FRIEND.

Then I poke a tiny air hole on the other side of the opening. This works great, and I don't worry about pouring too much oil. -- Norma, email FRENCH-VANILLA TOAST. One morning, I wanted French toast but didn't want to get out all of the COOKING OIL Mary Hunt Everyday Cheapskate room to remove items with ease. Generally, there's a lot of room at the top of the cabinet for another shelf. I buy shelving and the little shelf hooks at my local home improvement store. I've been pleas- antly surprised at the additional space I've created in my cabinets. -- Sandi, Virginia ADD A SHELF. Most upper kitchen cabinets come with two shelves, placed equal distances apart. When I'm setting up a kitchen, the first thing I do is remove the shelves from the cabinets. Then I start at the bottom, placing items where I want them. I install the next shelf as low as possible, leaving enough MOVER. I use an old skateboard to move heavy things when I'm by myself. I can push things where I need them without strain- ing myself. -- Karen, Vir- ginia The Tehama-Glenn Unit of the California Depart- ment of Forestry and Fire Protection (CalFire) and the Tehama County Fire Department (TCFD) were very busy on Fourth of July due to the structure and veg- etation fire on Diamond Avenue in Red Bluff.
