Tidy Up - Clean up tips for the Kitchen -
The kitchen is the heart of the home, and
never is that more true than during the
holidays. Traditional baking, family
meals, parties and entertaining make this
room the focus of friends and family. With
so much to do in December, your family at
Rubbermaid has these tips to help you keep
your cool in the kitchen all month long.
Ring Holder - Avoid a Drain Disaster - The
jewelry we value the most is often not the
most expensive pieces we own, but rather,
those to which we feel a strong emotional
tie, and therefore, are seldom without.
Items such as wedding bands and engagement
rings are highly personal, often expensive
and are never easily replaced if lost.
Because these rings are so special, we
don't readily part with them even when
washing dishes. But doing dishes wearing
rings is not only uncomfortable but may
also ruin the jewelry!

star-quality treatment.
