I love this idea from Gigi. It's not that her tip is so unusual -- we've printed tips from readers who write out weekly menus on kitchen white boards, chalk boards and pieces of paper hung on the fridge. What I like about this system is its ability to be mobile. ALL-IN-ONE MEAL PLAN- NING. I created a list of my fami- ly's favorite dinners and arranged it by cuisine: American, Chinese, Ital- ian and so on. I also have a list of favorite breakfasts and quick meals. I keep these lists in a one-inch binder. In the front pocket, I insert recipes I'd like to try, along with my grocery list. In the back pocket, I keep coupons and extra scrap paper. Now when I plan the menu, I have lists and recipes on hand with which to refer. And when I'm in a hurry, I grab the binder so I can make meal plans on the go. -- Gigi, California CLEANING SET ON HIGH. The ceramic insert in my slow cooker can get super stained with all the different foods I cook in it. To clean it, I fill it with water and add dishwashing detergent. Then I turn the slower cooker on High and let it "cook" for 15 to 30 minutes. I rinse it out, and all the stains are gone. -- Elizabeth, Virginia DESIGNER CRAYONS. When I have to match a color to an item I'm shop- ping for, instead of using a paint chip or a fabric swatch, I use a crayon. Today's crayons come in every color imaginable, and they are much easier to manage while shop- ping. -- Marilyn, Illinois STICKY MOUSE- TRAPS. A friend was having no luck catching the rats and mice that had infested his house. The critters would swipe the bait off the trap without tripping it. He then put the bait on the traps with a couple of drops of crazy glue, and that did the trick. The critters never had a chance. -- Clyde, California SWEET-SMELLING DECO- RATIONS. Start saving your dryer sheets. Used dryer sheets that are still soft and sweet-smelling make perfect wraps for delicate Christ- mas ornaments. With several weeks until this year's holiday decorations come down, you'll have enough dryer sheets to leave your decora- The Internal Revenue Service is issuing a warning about a new tax scam that uses a website that mimics the IRS e-Services online registration page. The actual IRS e-Services page offers web-based products for tax preparers, not the general public. The phony web page looks almost identical to the real one. The IRS gets many reports of fake websites like this. Criminals use these sites to lure people into providing personal and financial information that may be used to steal the victim's money or identity. The address of the official IRS website is www.irs.gov. Don't be misled by sites claiming to be the IRS but ending in .com, .net, .org or other designa- tions instead of .gov.

During the year, I sim- ply collect more in an empty tissue box. -- Sally, Georgia NUTS TO SCRATCHES IN WOOD. When I was grow- ing up, our cats would jump onto our dark, hard- wood piano and scratch it. My mom used to rub the scratches with the meat of a walnut (no shell, of course!). Most of the scratches on that piano are invisible to this day. I still use walnuts for furniture scratches, and they work well. Test the method on a less visible area to be sure it doesn't darken the wood, but I haven't yet had that problem. -- Bonnie, email Would you like to send a tip to Mary?
