STRANGE BUT TRUE By Lucie Winborne

* For centuries, doctors thought that medicines made with human flesh, blood or bone could be effective in curing all kinds of ailments, from epilepsy to headaches. The practice was called “corpse medicine.”

HEALTH BENEFITS OF HONEY

Soothes sore throat: Taking a tablespoon of honey to relieve itchy, dry throats and coughs can be effective. In a study published in the Archives of Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine, it was determined that honey could be just as effective at stemming cough as the popular medicine dextromethorphan.

NOW HERE’S A TIP

By JoAnn Derson

* I purchase rotisserie chickens and use the meat for different things -- soup, casseroles, etc. I have a trick to getting the skin off. My hand strength isn’t what it used to be, and those birds are slippery. I use a paper towel to grip the skin, and pull the meat and bone right out. It works well on a raw bird too.

-- L.A. in Florida

* To re-whiten socks or washcloths, try boiling a pot of water and adding a sliced, juiced lemon. Soak the items for at least an hour, and then pick out the lemon and add the pot -- water and all -- to a load of wash.

* If there are crushed cookies in a pack I purchase, I set them aside in a plastic baggie in the freezer to use on ice cream. Yummy!

-- R.L. in Alberta, Canada

* If you have been cooking in the oven and have a pan that’s got cooked-on food, you can get it clean without all the scrubbing. Immediately after cooking, while the oven is still hot, add enough water to cover the bottom of the pan and a little dishsoap. Put it in the oven until the oven is cool. The residual heat will work on the stuckon food while you are dining, and it’ll wipe right out.

-- W.O. in Minnesota

* When washing out stockings, add a tablespoon of vinegar to the rinse water, and they will retain their elasticity better.

* Wintergreen oil makes a lovely room freshener. Put two drops on a cotton ball and tuck it into the cushions of your couch, or hide it under a lamp pedestal ... anywhere out of the way. The scent drifts over a week or so. -- G.T. in Delaware

Sunrise Service

I want to thank the owner of the Sunrise Restaurant and the gentleman in the booth adjoining mine. I lost my cell phone between my seat and the wall in my booth. The bench had to be pulled out, but it is attached to the bench in the next booth. The gentleman stood up so the bench could be removed and my phone rescued. Again THANK YOU!

So Proud

So proud of our Cheshire firemen and volunteers for putting together the April 2nd Chicken BBQ Dinners. They cooked hundreds of chicken halves. It took some time to get this great number done and what a wonderful meal it was. Our little hamlet has many businesses –what a great place to live.

Pedestrians, especially in the dark

It's never safe to assume that, simply because pedestrians have the right-of-way, you can blindly walk across the road without looking both ways first. Especially in the dark, when you're wearing dark clothing, there are street lights and oncoming headlights shining in drivers' eyes, and you cross abruptly, causing drivers to have to slam on their brakes to avoid flattening you.

War-ravaged Cratered Parking Lot

In reference to the "unsafe conditions" at a certain Senior/Disabled complex Rant on 3/31/23: I think I know the referred to complex. I don't live there, I visit there, but am seriously considering stopping visiting there because of the pitiful condition of the parking lot for fear of costly damage to my car! The potholes aren't as large as basketballs. The potholes are as large as basketball backboards, which last I checked, measure 6 feet wide, and 3 1/2 feet high!

In store shoppers

Do you believe you’re the only one in the store? You don’t need to do your shopping and jogging at the same time. Jog outside. You come flying out a side aisle like the main aisle is empty, block an aisle while you scrutinize what you want, stop your cart while you read labels right next to another cart blocking everything. You block the deli case with your cart so nobody else can see the items or bring full shopping carts to the speed/self checkout, even if the sign says 20 or less. Courtesy for others is a thing of the past.

STOCK UP ON HEALTHFUL FOOD

(NAPSI) — During these challenging times, people are avoiding the supermarket and, instead, stocking up on shelf-stable and frozen foods. Unfortunately, these can often be loaded with preservatives and lack nutrition. Many families also resort to take-out foods that can be high in sodium, hydrogenated fats and refined sugars.

“The best solution is to find healthy, prepared products that can be purchased in bulk at the supermarket, online and delivered to your doorstep,” advises consumer trends expert Merilee Kern.

One of Kern’s personal favorites is Veggies Made Great, which offers easy, familyfriendly and delicious veggie-rich meals and snacks such as muffins, frittatas and veggie cakes. They can fill freezers and keep families healthy—even during stressful times.

Vegetables including carrots, zucchini and kale are the first and primary ingredients in any Veggies Made Great item, and all are free of gluten, soy, peanuts and dairy. Available in the freezer section, each is individually wrapped and can be quickly and easily heated in the oven or microwave. It’s an easy and tasty way to have veggiedriven nutrition on the menu every day.

You can find them at www.TheHealthfoodStore.com and locate retailers at www.VeggiesMadeGreat.com.

Taking Zinc as Daily Supplement Won’t Change Hair Loss

DEAR DR. ROACH: I am having trouble finding a reliable recommendation for the daily supplement zinc. I purchased 50-mg pills, but I think this may be too much. I am 74 and female, and I would like to include zinc in my daily supplements, as my hair has begun thinning quite a bit straight down the top of my head. -- R.M.

ANSWER: Zinc is an important nutrient, and it is certainly true that zinc deficiency may lead to hair loss. However, most people with hair loss do not have a zinc deficiency, and there is no convincing data that giving extra zinc to a person with normal zinc levels will help with hair loss. Hair loss along the midline is consistent with female pattern hair loss, which is very common among women in their 70s and usually has nothing to do with zinc. Very high amounts of zinc supplementation can be dangerous (and impair your body’s ability to absorb other trace metals such as copper), but 50 mg is a safe amount. Still, the most effective therapies for female pattern hair loss include minoxidil (usually topical, but low-dose oral is increasingly used), spironolactone and finasteride. A dermatologist is the expert on hair loss and can give you a better diagnosis by exam than I can by your description. ***

DEAR DR. ROACH: My youngest son has to have both of his hips replaced. He is only 37, but is in a very strenuous job of being a boilermaker in an oil refinery. This is the hardest job in a heavy industry. His doctors are telling me that his hips deteriorated due to alcohol consumption -- is this even possible? Even if he can get through this ordeal, he is still locked into this physical type of work. The doctors say he will need another hip replacement in 10 to 15 years if he stays in this line of work. Do you agree with these statements? -- B.M.

ANSWER: Let’s take them one by one.

The most common cause of hip disease requiring hip replacement is osteoarthritis of the hips, but it is quite unusual to see someone of your son’s age require a hip replacement. Alcohol is not a recognized risk factor for osteoarthritis of the hips, but it is a known underlying cause of a much less-common condition: osteonecrosis of the hips, also called avascular necrosis.

The more a person drinks, the more likely they are to get this rare condition, even though most heavy drinkers will never get this condition. Not every person with osteonecrosis of the hip will require a hip replacement. It is frequent to have both sides of the hip affected with disease.

Untreated congenital hip dysplasia may also lead to severe hip damage requiring a total hip replacement, and it is also one cause I see in a person of your son’s age.

Prognosis after a modern hip replacement is very good. More than 90% of people are doing well, pain-free and without complications 15 years after surgery takes place. Of course, some kinds of activities such as heavy lifting and high-impact movements could make the surgical prosthetics wear out faster, but regular activities such as walking, stair climbing and most sports that are not highintensity or high-impact can be done without damage to the prosthetic.

Although further alcohol use will not affect the prosthetic hips or other bones, many other body systems are very much affected by alcohol. So, if he has been a heavy drinker for some time, it is now time to stop. His doctors can help him find many available resources.

***

Dr. Roach regrets that he is unable to answer individual questions, but will incorporate them in the column whenever possible. Readers may email questions to ToYourGoodHealth@med.cornell.edu.

BRUSHING BABIES’ TEETH

As soon as baby’s first tooth appears, usually around six to eight months of age, it’s time to start brushing. You can brush baby’s first teeth using water and a soft wet cloth or child’s toothbrush to clean all surfaces of the teeth. Brush or wipe gently in circles along the gumline. Doingthistwiceadaywillcreategood habits for your child who will come to expect teeth brushing as part of their morning and bedtime routines. Use only water until eighteen months of age and then switch to a children’s toothpaste.Start with a small amount, about the size of a grain of rice. Around age six you can begin using a pea-sized amount of toothpaste.

The importance of baby teeth cannot be overstated, just as conscientious dental care should not

be overlooked. Taking care of these little pearls as soon as they appear paves the way to a future healthy dental profile. Let us help promote your children’s healthy mouth and brilliant smile. Taught early enough about the importance of taking care of their teeth, children can learn to make a habit of daily brushing and flossing. We have convenient office hours at BATAVIA FAMILY DENTAL, 6 Batavia City Centre, please call 585.343.4246. We accept most insurances.

P.S. When young children swallow their fluoride toothpaste, it can lead to a condition called fluorosis that causes permanent pits and staining in teeth.

SWEDEN’S CAPTAIN MILO STARKS STEPPED UP IN CIVIL WAR

BY BILL ANDREWS, BROCKPORT TOWN HISTORIAN

Milo Starks, a farm boy who lived just south of Brockport, was the great Civil War hero of the area. He recruited Company A of the 140th New York Volunteer Infantry Regiment in Brockport.

e 140th, and especially Company A, played a crucial role at Gettysburg, the decisive battle of the war. On the second day at Gettysburg, the 140th marched along the northern base of a hill called Little Round Top en route to its assigned position when the general of another brigade countermanded its orders and ordered it to climb the hill and repel two elite Texas regiments that mounted it from the south.

e men were exhausted, many barefoot, a er a two-week forced march. In the confusion, they failed to load their ri es. But when they reached the summit, they threw the Texans into disarray by their sudden appearance. e New Yorkers loaded their ri es and drove back the Texans.

the second day “was pivotal to the Union victory on the third” because it commanded the battle eld.

A er the battle, Starks was promoted to major as the secondranking o cer of the regiment. He next saw action in the battle of Saunder’s Field in the Wilderness Battlecampaign,aUniondisaster.

e 140th led an assault across an open eld against an entrenched enemy and was almost destroyed. ey were repulsed with a loss of 268 of their 529 men killed, wounded, or captured. CompanyAhada40percentcasualtyrate.Starkshadanarrow escape. As he was helping organize the retreat, a lieutenant at his side was shot in the leg.

InMay1864,inthebattleofLaurelHill,O’Rorke’ssuccessor as commander of the 140th was killed leading a charge against entrenched Rebels and Starks, promoted to major, took his place to lead another charge, and was shot dead. O’Rorke’s grieving father, a deeply religious man, wrote that he had died like “a Christian, beloved not only in his native town, but in the army.”

Bill Andrews details this and other former Brockport area residents’ e orts in battle and on the homefront during the Civil War. at book, Civil War Brockport, is available at the Li Bridge Book Shop.

Colonel Patrick O’Rorke, the regimental commander, was killed at the outset of the ghting and Starks, as captain of the lead company, became its de facto leader. e defenders of Little Round Top had been imperiled by the Texans’ out anking maneuver and were saved by the timely arrival of the 140th. Starks was wounded four times but refused to leave the eld until the battle was won.

As Starks remembered, “In the height of the contest –where our brave men were falling like the leaves of autumn and to us there seemed to be little hope against the odds being thrown against [us]. One of the o cers when men were wavering – cried Boys the Old h Corps never run yet, stand your ground. Twas like an electric shot. To a man they rallied, closed up the broken line and with one Herculean e ort hurled back the foe in confusion.”

Historian Bruce Catton called the charge by the 140th “as strange a counterattack as the army ever saw – they simply ran straight at their foes, and the only weight their charge had was the weight of their running bodies.” Historian Allen Nevins has said that the retention of Little Round Top on

MEMORIAL GIFTS HONOR LOVED ONES

he loss of a friend or loved one is seldom easy, particularly if a person had been suffering from an illness. Close friends and family honor the memories of their deceased loved ones in different ways. Charitable giving can be a great way to honor a loved one’s memory while helping others. Survivors often find comfort in the knowledge that they can do good in the name of a loved one. Tributes or memorial gifts can be approached in different ways and serve as an ongoing reminder of a deceased loved one. Create a charitable foundation: Those who have the time and resources can establish their own charitable groups in the decedent’s name. This method of charity requires the most time and effort, but can prove to be quite an impactful memorial. Individuals who would like to go this route can consult with financial and tax professionals about the best way to establish a charitable group.

Community foundation: Families can focus on something their loved one cared deeply about, such as animal rescue, children, the arts, or even particular places in a community - such as a local park. According to CarePages, a company that produces free patient websites and offers community support for those coping with illness, families can choose to have their donations funneled to specific charities or nonprofit groups. Otherwise, funds can be allocated to a third party community fund that will distribute money to various organizations no matter where they are located.

Medical tribute: Memorial gifts that assist medical associations or groups working to find cures or offer treatments for diseases are quite popular. If a loved one passed away due to a specific illness, it is common to ask for donations to a specific organization that specializes in information and services pertaining to that illness. Many such groups have a “donate in memory” option on their websites. Oftentimes families are notified regarding who made memorial donations in their loved ones’ names, but the amount of the donation need not be revealed.

Personal intentions: Those who would like to make a donation but cannot think of a charity to associate with their deceased loved one have a host of options at their disposal. Consider donating to a school or library, requesting materials be purchased in the decedent’s name. Otherwise, donate to a general scholarship fund, possibly at the decedent’s alma mater.

Finish their work: If the decedent was engaged in a charitable project prior to their death, volunteer to help complete that project. Giving back after the death of a loved one is a great way to keep the memory of that person alive.

TIPS TO COPE WITH THE LOSS OF A LOVED ONE

Celebrate your loved one. The APA recognizes that many people find the anniversaries of a loved one’s death to be especially difficult. The APA recommends individuals use such anniversaries as opportunities to celebrate their loved one’s life. Plant a garden in a loved one’s memory or honor them with a donation to a charity they supported. Such gestures can add some positivity to the anniversary and help in the healing process.

The spirit that inspires travelers to take to the open road still exists, but nowadays drivers can make their road trips even more fun by taking along the appropriate tech.

Finding the right family car

Use: Family cars are rarely limited to getting mom or dad to and from work and for trips to the grocery store. Today’s kids are more active than ever before, and chances are their schedules are as packed as their parents’. Consider the many chauffeuring trips you will have to make in the years to come, and choose a car that is equipped to handle those trips. Parents who double as soccer coaches may benefit from buying minivans that can easily store all that sports equipment, while those whose children participate in activities that take them far and wide may want a car that’s especially fuel efficient.

Finding the Right Food Bowl for an Older Cat Takes Trial and Error

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: I hope this advice helps other cat owners. My cat, Ferris, is 13 years old, and while he’s generally healthy, he does have arthritis and is not as energetic as he once was. I noticed a few months ago that he was not nishing his dry food in the evenings, so I took him to the vet to get him checked out. Everything was ne, but the vet said that he might have some discomfort crouching down to reach his food and water.

I went online to nd a raised platform that would hold food and water dishes. e trouble was that many of the platforms were too high for Ferris to reach comfortably, and he didn’t seem very happy with the platform design. Instead, I found a dish that he loves. It sits about three inches above the oor and is angled higher in the back so that he doesn’t push the food out of the bowl while eating. It’s weighted so that it doesn’t shi while he eats. is is a lot more comfortable for Ferris, and he’s eating all of his food again. -Terry L., Bloomington, Indiana

Gardening pointers for novices

People have many reasons for growing gardens, and some of the most popular gardens are plots designated for cultivating herbs and vegetables. Fresh produce at the ready is a great benefit of having a home garden, which also allows homeowners to exercise full control over which products to use to grow robust, healthy vegetables.

Novice gardeners may not know where to begin when it comes to planting their first vegetable gardens, and such gardeners can benefit by starting small. You may want to begin by growing plants in containers so they are more manageable and can be moved as you discover which areas of your property provide the best growing conditions.

Begin with one or two types of vegetables. Tomatoes, cucumbers and certain squashes are popular starterplants,astheyarerelatively hardy. Select only a few plants so you are not overwhelmed with the level of care required to maintain your garden.

Some gardeners prefer to start plants from seeds, but this will require more time and a greater commitment with regard to maintenance and planting. When just starting out, experiment with small plants that are established and already have a good root system.

Consult with your local gardening center for more suggestions, such as which soil amendments to use. Plants may require a certain soil pH that can be adjusted for optimal plant growth.

DOG-RELATED LAWN DAMAGE

Dogs love spending time outdoors. Dog owners with yards know that dogs benefit greatly from some exercise in the backyard. While that time might be great for dogs, it can take its toll on lawns.

Dogurineandfecescanadverselyaffectthelookandhealthofalushgreen lawn. Nitrogen is essential to healthy soil, but only at certain levels. When those levels are exceeded, the result can be lawn damage. According to The Spruce Pets, an advisory site that offers practical tips and training advices to pet owners, this is what happens when pets frequently urinate on grass. Urine is naturally high in nitrogen, so when pets urinate on lawns, the grass might turn yellow or brown due to the excess nitrogen content. Nitrogen also is present in lawn fertilizers, further exacerbating the problem for pet owners who fertilize their lawns.

Honey is nature’s sweet nectar. While honey certainly can add flavor to various recipes or be enjoyed straight out of the jar, it has many other surprising benefits as well. Used since ancient times as both a food and for medicinal purposes, honey can make for a versatile addition to anyone’s diet.

Rising Cost of Home Insurance

When I got my home insurance bill and it showed a massive payment for my policy renewal, I actually laughed. I ipped the page over, believing I’d received someone else’s mail by mistake ... probably a neighbor down the street. But when I saw my own name, I wasn’t laughing anymore when I grabbed my calculator and discovered that the new amount was a 45% increase over last year.

Still, ever hopeful, I called my insurance company, wondering if someone else’s home had been plugged into my account. No, it hadn’t. e amount listed was indeed for my home, as were the numbers for out buildings, personal property and temporary living expenses.

I called several neighbors: Has your insurance gone up? No, they all said. I discovered the likely reason for that during a call to a friendly local insurance agent. ey’re no doubt in the middle of a policy period, he said. eir bad surprise will come when it’s time to renew that policy and all the price increases hit them.

Special shadowbox: Create a shadow box of cherished mementos. If a loved one served in the military, was a beloved teacher or had a worthwhile hobby or other endeavor, gather pertinent items and arrange them in the shadowbox.

ere are several reasons why a policy can increase, such as material and labor (which is the big one right now), additions to the house, number of prior claims, your deductible, your credit score and the breed of dog you own.

A er several calls to di erent insurance companies, it’s not looking good. What I get so far is that if I decide to gamble and lower my coverage level, I run a risk that something will happen and I’ll be stuck for mammoth amounts of money that insurance won’t cover.

e only thing that’s going to save a few dollars is to pay the whole year upfront and not have to pay the monthly budget fees with every payment.

Take a deep breath before you open your next policy renewal envelope. Good luck.

GET THE MOST OUT OF BRIDAL SHOWS AND WEDDING EVENTS

Scout out vendors. Check the bridal show’s website for lists of exhibitors and see if your desired vendors are on the list. But even if they’re not, keep an open mind and use the show as a chance to compare offerings. If an event map is available, marking off must-visit booths can help save time.

GET THE MOST OUT OF BRIDAL SHOWS AND WEDDING EVENTS

Come prepared. Chances are each vendor is going to ask couples for information so that they can follow up with a phone call or email with more detailed offerings and estimates. Couples attending the show can expediate the process by coming equipped with labels that feature their names, contact information and wedding date. They can then stick the labels on sign-in sheets or use them like business cards.

Palm fronds: Palm Sunday is the final Sunday of Lent, taking place one week before Easter Sunday. Palm Sunday commemorates Jesus’ triumphant entry into Jerusalem. According to the Gospels, Jesus rode a young donkey into Jerusalem, where the townspeople threw palms in front of him in homage. That practice was a customary sign of respect in Jerusalem, and today Christians believe the palm is a sign of peace. Palms continue to be distributed to the faithful during Palm Sunday Mass.

Preowned Items Can Be Good For The Environment

Visit consignment stores: Consignment shops and Goodwill(R) stores are popular places to buy preowned items. These stores take donations or offer items for sale on consignment, which means once sold the person who provided the item gets a portion of the sale.

When browsing the racks of these stores, it’s possible to discover highend items mixed in with less expensive items. Shoppers may find designer handbags and clothing for much less than they would sell at retail, especially if the pieces are one or two seasons old. Relying on these stores to supplement classic wardrobe pieces is cost-effective and beneficial to the environment. If you regularly shop consignment stores, you can develop a rapport with the shopkeeper, who may alert you when new items are available.

INFLUENTIAL JAZZ MUSICIANS

Scott Joplin (c. 1868-1917):

Born into a musical family that included his mother, a singer and banjo player, and his father, a violist, Scott Joplin grew up in Texarkana, learning to play the guitar and later the piano at a very young age. By the time Joplin was a teenager, he was working as a traveling musician and eventually became the foremost composer of ragtime jazz. Biography.com notes that Joplin was a true student of music, studying at the George R. Smith College for Negroes in Missouri during the 1890s. Though one of history’s most celebrated jazz musicians, Joplin also composed ballets and operas.

DISTRACTIONS THAT CAN AFFECT EFFICIENCY AT WORK

The internet: The CareerBuilder survey found that employers believed the internet is the second biggest productivity killer. Professionals with a lot on their plates should do everything they can to avoid surfing the internet during the workday. The internet can be a rabbit hole, and even individuals who only intend to take a brief break from work to check the news or clear their head may soon find themselves moving from website to website while their work piles up. If it’s a mental break you need, get up and take a brief walk around the office instead of surfing the internet.

Full-time & part-time positions available.

THE RIGHT WAY TO LEAVE A JOB

Don’t shirk responsibilities. It can be tempting to slack off when another job awaits. The popular job-hunting site Monster.com says it can be human nature to do less when long-term accountability is removed. However, you never know when you might need a referral or even a new job. Leaving a bitter taste in the mouth of your employer at the end of your work history can put a black mark on your employee record.

THINGS TO LOOK FOR IN A NEW JOB

Salary: Of course everyone would love to earn more money when changing jobs, but there is more to changing jobs than just improving your bottom line. As you begin your job search, consider how much you currently earn and if that allows you to live a life you love. If so, don’t overemphasize finding a new job that pays considerably more than your currently earn. On the flip side, young professionals who want to start a family in the years ahead should consider the costs associated with such a decision and how the salaries they earn at their next jobs may affect what they want down the road.

WORKPLACE GIFTING ETIQUETTE: GET GIVING RIGHT

Gift giving in the workplace can be challenging territory to navigate. And as anyone who has received an inappropriate gift or something that really wasn’t useful can attest, he or she probably doesn’t want to face a situation in which a gift leads to office gossip.

According to a poll conducted by Harris, around half of workers plan to gift at least one business associate around the holidays but are confused about what to give. Too often it’s up to workers to navigate these etiquette minefields on their own, but the following tips can help the process go smoothly.

Keep it impersonal. Impersonal doesn’t mean it’s acceptable to grab anything off the shelf. But the gift should not be something that would offend tastes or sentiments. Avoid clothing, perfume, jewelry, or accessories. Lotions and other scented items are also ill-advised. Skip your boss. Etiquette experts say that gifts should flow downward not upward in the realm of employment ranking. That means it’s best to stick with gifting colleagues who are on the same level as you. Buying a gift for the boss may look like you’re simply trying to score brownie points instead of offering a meaningful gift.

Give group gifts. Rather than gifting individuals, it can be safer to give a group gift from which many can benefit. This can include coffee and pastries from a nearby bakery, or a bouquet of flowers to brighten up the office environment.

Keep prices modest. Office giving is not about illustrating who can afford the most expensive gift. Remember, some people will not be able to reciprocate, and they shouldn’t feel uncomfortable for being on the receiving end of a lavish gift.

Follow the rules. Gift exchanges should be cleared with supervisors or human resources professionals. It pays to check if there are rules in place for gifting others. Avoid cash gifts. Giving cash or checks is not a good idea. Money should only come by way of bonuses from higher-ups. If you’re stuck on what to give, a gift card to a store that a coworker visits is acceptable.

HOW TO MAKE YOUR OFFICE MORE ECO-FRIENDLY Develop

telecommuting policies. In analyzing data from the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2005-2014 American Community Survey, GlobalWorkplaceAnalytics.com found the population of regular work-at-home non-self-employed persons grew by 103 percent between 2005 and 2014. Working from home is often seen as employee-friendly, but it also can benefit employers and the environment. When employees work from home, their employers need not purchase or lease as much office space, saving them substantial amounts of money. In addition, working from home cuts down on the number of commuters driving to work, decreasing fuel consumption and vehicle emissions. Employers who cannot allow employees to work from home full-time can still help the environment and their employees by allowing workers to work from home one or two days a week.

SPRING CLEANING PROJECTS YOU DON’T WANT TO FORGET

Spring cleaning is an annual tradition in many households. After a winter spent cooped up indoors, spring cleaning can rejuvenate a household and provide a great chance to rid a home of a season’s worth of clutter. Donating old clothes and cleaning out the garage are popular spring cleaning projects, but there are a host of additional tasks homeowners can tackle to freshen up their homes this spring.
