Casa Quickie: Shine Like the Top of the Chrysler Building
In the classic musical Annie there's a great line imitating Miss Hannigan during the "Hard-Knock Life" number that I always think of when I'm mopping the house:"You'll stay up until this floor shines like the top of the Chrysler Building." The image of how that landmark sparkles in the skyline is actually a great motivator for me. But, sadly, the plot, which involves the hard labor of orphans, isn't the nicest thing.
Getting Down and Dirty vs. Cleaning Dirty Floors

I decided to do a little compare and contrast quiz between these drastically different methods of getting domestic.
Swiffer Got a New Spokeswoman
If this doesn't make mopping the floors look like a darn good time, then I don't know what will. The shades, the neck brace, the barking insanity— it's a far cry from Disneyland, but hey, there's always air guitar! And Momma Grinch here makes an entertaining drill sergeant, no?

Organic Style for Your Hair

But I finally got around to trying one of MOP's styling products—specifically, the C-System Styling Conditioner—and now I'm enamored. I typically think of leave-in conditioners as something you only use occasionally, but this soft creamy lotion is a great everyday styling tool.
Consumer Reports: How to Make Pricey Appliances Last
The cost of maintaining a home and appliances is often a major deterrent for those debating whether to rent or purchase a home. The unexpected expense of fixing leaky gutters and broken dishwashers can be budget breaking if it comes at the wrong time of month. Not to mention it's a huge pain.

Fast & Easy Dinner: Spicy Fettuccine With Clams
