Home Tips by Anne & Larry - Cleaing Mac & Cheese off a Wood Table

Sunday, April 26, 2009

We've all had to face the issue of messy children in the early stages of learning how to eat (which - sometimes - doesn't end until their mid to late twenties).

One of the hardest things to remove is cold Macaroni & Cheese, as it tends to become very sticky, very fast.Here are two viewpoints on how to deal with this sticky issue:

Anne: In order to clean Mac & Cheese off the table, use a REALLY wet table-cloth. By keeping the cloth wet, it will help slide the sticky, cheesy macaroni right off the table. After you've removed the leftover bits, you can then use standard cleaners to finish the job and polish up.

Larry: Cleaning Mac & Cheese off the kitchen table is easy. Simply follow these three steps. 1) Pick up dog. 2) Place dog on table. 3) Leave room. (If you don't have a dog, see if you can borrow your neighbors.
