Helpful Hints from joeeze: Lazy person's way to press your sheets
Christiane Lemieux, DwellStudio founder and creative director, told Jennifer Barger in a Q&A published June 4, 2009 in the Washington Post Home section, "And if you don't feel like ironing sheets, take them out of the dryer when they're still a little bit damp and put them on the bed. It's the lazy person's way of pressing them."
I'm on it.
Bonus hint from Ms. Lemieux: "If you've got a percale, wash it it inside out so prints don't fade so much over time."

Dictionary.com hits the jackpot
The site's been around since forever and has always been my go-to destination anytime I need word-related information.
They've fiddled around with advertising, trying to find a way to make what must be enormous traffic pay.
By George, I think they've finally got it (top).
Now to find the equivalent pot of gold here at bookofjoe.
Anyone?
