SINGLE SERVING MAC 'N' CHEESE. My toddler eats only a small portion of a box of macaroni and cheese. Leftover mac and cheese is never a hit, and the indi- vidual packs are too pricy. Instead, I buy the boxes when they are on sale and store the cheese powder and noodles in separate jars. Then I can prepare individual servings as need- ed. I use 1/3 cup of dry noodles and one heaping tablespoon each of cheese powder, butter and milk. -- Michel, New York STEAM WARMER. To keep my mashed potatoes hot and fluffy while I finish the rest of my dinner, I just put them in a heat-proof bowl and place that bowl in a pot filled with a couple inches of simmering water. Cover the bowl with a lid or foil to keep the potatoes from dry- ing out. -- Doris, Nebraska ANTI-STICKY MARSHMAL- LOWS. I had an open bag of marsh- mallows get sticky. I put them in a zip-type bag with cornstarch and stirred them. They separated. I tried some in hot chocolate, and it tasted just fine. -- Cathy, Florida SPICE FILE. If you don't adhesive file tabs. Empty a spice jar into a bag, zip it shut, and stick on a file tab at the top. Write the name of the spice on the label, and slide it into the tab. Repeat for all of your spices. Arrange in alphabetical order, and place files in a shoebox or small container that will allow you to stand them up so you can see what you need. -- Cindi, Arkansas PAN LINER. To have a lot of kitchen space to devote to spice and herb bot- tles, make a Spice File. All you need are sandwich-size zipper bags and self- the brand-new shelves to get dirty. When I store a bottle that tends to get messy, I put a sheet of plastic wrap down as a shelf liner. It works beautifully, and because it is tacked down to the shelf by the adhesive wrap, it is neat and tidy! -- Cathy, Califor- nia Mary Hunt Everyday Cheapskate avoid cleaning a roller pan when I paint, I slip it into a large plastic department store bag and pour the paint onto the bag over the pan. After painting, I simply turn the bag inside out and discard it. I am left with a clean roller pan, which saves a lot of time and costs nothing! -- Tony, Mississippi NEAT FRIDGE. I just bought a new refrigerator, and I didn't want BAGS. I have accumulated many cloth tote bags over the years from different seminars I've attended or book clubs I've joined. Instead of purchasing reusable cloth bags for gro- ceries, I use my tote bags instead. They are machine washable, and I can save money and the environ- ment by recycling them! -- Cindy, Missouri CLOTH SHOPPING Would you like to send a tip to Mary?

No Butts Left Behind diaper drive The past two years have been quite successful for the Tehama County Health Partnership's No Butt's Left Behind campaign. With the state of our economy, families are forced to make some diffi- cult decisions — one of those decisions should not be whether to buy a sack of groceries or buy the pack of diapers. statistics: Here are some diapering • A healthy change of diapers costs $100 a month or more. • Services in Tehama County give away an aver- age of 50 packs of diapers every week — most acquired through this cam- paign. • Government programs don't provide diapers, which makes the Family Resource Centers in Red Bluff, Los Molinos and Corning incredibly helpful programs for families in need in Tehama County. • In families for which diapers are a luxury, a baby can spend a day or longer in one diaper. Wearing a soiled diaper for extended periods has been linked to potential health and abuse risks. • Without transportation to access large retailers or discount stores, many are forced to buy diapers at con- venience stores, which can double or triple the monthly cost for diapers. ing facilities. • Most coin-operated laundromats do not allow customers to wash cloth diapers for health and sani- tary reasons. • So why not go cloth, you ask? Many people liv- ing in poverty do not have affordable access to wash- "Sometimes diapers are the only door-opener we can consistently count when cold-calling new referrals," said School Readiness Coordinator Michelle Barnard. "Those are the families you really want to help – the ones that have to have a real reason to open their homes to us. Help the Tehama County Health Partnership give families a much needed break and donate a package of diapers. Together we can make a dif- ference – not only for par- ents but for many babies in our community." ness Development Center is present- ing our 14th Annual Women in Busi- ness Conference from 8 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 25 at the Chico Masonic Family Center, 1110 W.
