    Vintage kitchen tools

    I have a cookie press, a manual egg beater, and potato masher.  I remember my grandmother having that fruit masher thingy as she was always making jellies and jams (my grandfather fed half the town with his huge garden).

    Kenmore/ISE disposal dead?

    Thanks for the advice. I'm looking at ISE models for the sole ease of installation. Hers has been great and it was a stainless one at that. The grind chamber still looks brand new after thirty years.

    Maytag dryer bogging down or something?

    I didn't notice any weirdness when it started just while it's running. As it runs and gets warm it will start doing that regularly causing the unit to really make strange sounds. I told mother not to worry we can still get motors even if I have to get a good used one...I have connections. When I...

    I Removed Sharpie Ink From a Shirt

    We use clean freak for a lot of stubborn stains with good results. On another note ..tony had an unfortunate encounter with a juicy hamburger once on a synthetic fabric jacket. We tried everything and we're just about to toss it out so I figured we had nothing to lose and put it throu a boil...

    Kenmore/ISE disposal dead?

    Ok, I'm pretty needy today. Mom's Kenmore/ISE made disposal 1/2 HP that's 30 years old has decided to not work. I don't have a model number (I was too busy fooling with her dryer). It just hums. I put the wrench up in it and it turns easily all the way around with no hesitation or noises so it's...

    Maytag dryer bogging down or something?

    Try this...first time. A few seconds after the video starts you can hear it drag down for a second. Prior to this it was doing it more frequently. It scared my mother, she thought it was something to do with the gas but all of that is fine. Blower wheel is nice and tight, belt fine, rollers fine.

    Maytag dryer bogging down or something?

    It really sounds like the motor, like when an engine almost stops and then picks up again.

    Maytag dryer bogging down or something?

    Mom's dryer, lsg7804aal stacked set, sounds like it's trying to die. I have a recording of one episode but it was doing more just prior to me recording it. Sounds like something in the motor but I'm really not sure. I've checked the blower, the rollers, and the drum alignment and I don't believe...

    Forcing Auto Pay and Paperless statements by companies

    I have to decline paperless billing every month when I log in to pay bills. Once upon a time something automatically signed me up for paperless billing and I didn't get the email til it was already late. I stopped it immediately. I usually know what's due when anyway...I get that from my mother...

    Miele Little Giant VS Regular Miele

    I found a place in Washington DC that had pw 6068 on closeout for $999! If it weren't so far away I would have gone up there to get one.

    Ariel multi

    Anyone tried this yet? I'm wondering about sudsing in softened water. Walmart has it in a box. We use powder for whites and have used Ariel in the bags but it bubbles If not used sparingly.

    The Downy that SHOULD be sold in stores…

    I'm happy with Walmarts GV fabric softener. Not too strongly scented.

    Have Increasing Energy Prices Caused Change in Your Laundry Routine

    Nah, gas water heater and gas dryer. Not much to change. The Miele doesn't have to heat much since the washer sits right beside the water heater.

    Maytag (WP) SxS fridge water not evaporating

    Well I just looked and there is still a drip but in a different place. The o rings on the filter are leaking. I reused my filter that was just installed at the end of December. I may see if Lowe's has some o rings that size and replace them. Those filters are not cheap. Meanwhile I just pulled...

    Maytag (WP) SxS fridge water not evaporating

    Well after five days in New Orleans and leaving the water off to the house we came home yesterday and the drain pan was pretty much dry and the new genuine whirlpool filter housing was here waiting. I switched it out and will check it later to see if any more leaks.

    the liquid and the powder cycle

    A few years we did an experiment and started only using powder for our white laundry. The result? No more gray whites! Even with tide liquid they would eventually turn gray but not with powder. Typically Tide but have used Ariel. Soft water, Ariel, and a front loader can make for a really sudsy...

    Maytag (WP) SxS fridge water not evaporating

    As I was preparing things for our trip I looked under to see how much water is in the pan and I caught a drop as it fell from the filter housing itself. The lines are dry. So a new housing should get here about the time we get back and the water will be off so no worries there. Thanks for the...

    Maytag (WP) SxS fridge water not evaporating

    When I cleaned it a month ago I pulled it out from it's cubby. I took the back panel off and cleaned the fan and all the coils I could get to from the front and back and I have a long reach nozzle that will get way back in there. I was able to check the water valve and it was dry as were the...
