How To Wash Pillows

November 27, 2009 by Kristin Johnston

How To Wash Pillows

Pillows likely spend more than 50 hours a week next to your head, which is kind of gross, even with pillow protectors. I know I usually would simply toss or donate any pillows a couple of times a year for sure. However, I recently found out most pillows can be washed quite easily. Here is how:

WASH Put pillows in the washing machine on the gentle cycle with a mild detergent like Woolite. Do not wring….you will just misshape them.

DRY Put the pillows in the dryer. Some folks even put clean tennis balls in with them, to plump them back up.

I washed and dried mine last week and they look and feel great!

Ladies and gentlemen, start your Snuggies

November 23, 2009 by Kristin Johnston

Ladies and gentlemen, start your Snuggies

You’ll need your going-out Snuggie for this weekend’s “Snug ‘n Chug,” a charity pub crawl in which participants take to the streets in their Snuggies (“the blanket with sleeves!).

For kicks, you might want to dig out your BeDazzler (“the original stud and rhinestone setter!”) even though the crawl begins at 4 p.m. Saturday, so technically it’s not an after-5/rhinestone affair.

The Wicked Hop is coordinating the Snuggie pub crawl, which sends thirsty people to nine bars in and near the Historic Third Ward. Wearing a Snuggie gets pub crawlers $2 Lakefront beer taps or $3 Rehorst mixers. Donate a nonperishable food item at any of the bars on the crawl and get a raffle ticket for prizes.

Start your crawl at any of the following pubs: MJ’s on Milwaukee, Club Charlies, Fanatics, the Irish Pub, Stir Milwaukee, Moct Bar, Fire on Water, Swingin’ Door or the Wicked Hop.

Make sure you’re at the Wicked Hop at 9 p.m. for the World’s Largest Group Snuggie Hug.

6 Things You Probably Didn’t Know You Could Freeze!

November 18, 2009 by Kristin Johnston

6 Things You Probably Didn’t Know You Could Freeze!

1. Eggs. Lightly beaten eggs, beaten egg yolks, or whites can be frozen, but not an egg in its shell. Store in lidded ice cube trays. One egg fills two cubes.

2. Cooked Rice. Spread cooled rice on a lined baking sheet. Rub with a small amount of vegetable oil so grains separate. Freeze, then transfer to a freezer bag.

3. Ginger Root. Wrap peeled ginger in plastic, then put in freezer bag. Ginger grates well while still frozen.

4. Cheese. Cut hard (Parmesan, Pecorino) and semi-hard cheeses (Cheddar, Swiss) into 1×4 inch cubes, wrap in plastic, then put in a freezer bag. Grate hard cheeses while frozen; thaw others in the refrigerator.

5. Butter or Margarine. Store in freezer bag, in its original packaging, for up to 6 months. Thaw in refrigerator. Don’t freeze whipped butter.

6. Nuts. Store in airtight container or freezer bag for up to 6 weeks. Use right from the freezer for recipes, no need to thaw.
