About Care Of Aluminum Cookware Aluminum cookware is prized for its lightweight durability and heat conducting qualities. Regular care calls for washing in a solution of liquid dishwashing detergent and water. Stains can generally be removed with a steel wool soap pad. Severe stains and discolora tions can be removed by boiling a solution of two or three table spoons of cream of tartar, lemon juice or vinegar for each quart of water in the utensil for about five to ten minutes. Then lightly scour with a steel wool soap pad. The cooking of acid foods such as tomatoes or cabbage will remove stains naturally, yet not affect the food. Since undissolved salt can cause pitting in aluminum sur faces, always add salt to liquid after it is boiling and stir so the salt dissolves completely. Salty and acid foods should not stand in aluminum utensils for long per iods of time. Use cooking utensils of wood, plastic or smooth-edged metals to prevent scratching of the alumi num. The cookware may be washed in the dishwater although aluminum darkens when exposed to certain minerals and alkalies found in some foods and water.

About The Winter Blanket Story Cotton blankets are not for all year ‘round and for good reason. Heavier weight cotton thermajs have been introduced to meet the consumer demand for natural fib ers. And the easy care of automa tic laundering may also be a con tributing factor. Blankets of wool and wool acrylic blends are still favorites, however, and they are appearing in a variety of fashion looks and weaves. A wool blanket with a waffle weave pattern and 6-inch pleated satin binding is one noteworthy example, as is a ther mal wool blanket with specks of color throughout its weave. The look is achieved by placing sever al colors of wool fibers on a single yam through stock dying. While heavier-weight cotton thermals are popular, not all blankets are heavy this year. Some acrylics weigh little more than two pounds, an adequate weight con sidering the thermostat settings in many homes. Acrylic blankets are getting a lot'of attention because many of them have prints that add interest to a variety of decors. Country motifs are among the latest (717) 656-2016 designs. These printed blankets, generally an acrylic/polyester blend, use a needle punch construction. Coordinated bedding ensem bles are popular. Some blanket manufacturers are offering blank ets in a variety of colors to match sheets. Blankets and throws are used as accents in bedrooms, for example, a throw in a pastel stripe and three colors to coordinate with a blanket.

Protect Trees From ANNAPOLIS, MD. “Winter sun damage to shade and fruit trees may be a problem this wint er,” cautions Charles Staines, Supervisor of Nursery Inspection for the Maryland Department of Agriculture. However, he says there are things you can do about it. “The damage to trees that is a concern this year is called ‘sun scald’ or ‘frost cracks’, and it is caused by a rapid fluctuation of temperatures in winter,” Mr. Staines says. “The sun warms up tree bark to above freezing, allowing water to flow freely up and down inside the trunk and branches. When temper atures drop at night, the water freezes, cracking the bark and injuring the tree. If the sun scald is severe, it may kill a tree. Other wise, it can destroy the baric and allow insects or disease to invade the tree eventually killing it.” “Damage from sun scald is mosdy on the south side of deci duous trees located in mostly sun ny areas. It is generally confmd to the trunk. Newly planted thin ITS BACK!!! BIGGER & BETTER!!

If you continue spending as you did before, you will plunge into debt or use up all of your savings and assets. barked trees such as maples and ash are at high risk.” “To protect deciduous trees, simply wrap their trunks with a paper wrap which is available at hardware and garden stores. This wrap helps to reflect heat from the tree so there is not great tempera ture fluctuation.” “A similar type of injury occurs on some conifers. The sun heats up the dark needles, water flows and then later freezes. This causes what is known as winterbum, a bronzing or browning of the nee dles. Arborvitae is especially sus ceptible to this injury.” “Unfortunately wrapping the trunks of conifers will not protect them from this injury. Since the problem occurs in the needles. The next time you plant an everg reen choose a plant more resistant to winterbum, such as a juniper, or plant it in a protected area away from direct sun,” Mr. Staines concluded.
