Mary Says: Reheating in the oven reigns supreme. It’s the best way to achieve that perfect combination of a crispy crust and melty cheese that we all crave. Follow these simple steps to reheat your pizza to perfection: Preheat your oven to about 350 degrees F. Place the frozen pizza directly on the oven rack or a baking sheet. Bake the pizza for approximately 10 to 15 minutes. Keep an eye on it to make sure that it is heating evenly and doesn’t burn. Remove the pizza from the oven when it is heated through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.—MH

Puppy Stains

Our daughter gave us a puppy. Of course, there were accidents on the rug. My daughter told me to blot the spot with a paper towel, sprinkle one-fourth inch of baking soda on the spot, and let it dry for about 24 hours. Then I just vacuum up the dried baking soda. It works great!—Marie S., Indiana

Fluff as You Dry

When I dry comforters, sheets, blankets, or anything that just wads up in the dryer, I also throw in a tennis ball. It separates the sheets, blankets, etc. It costs only a few bucks for three cheap balls. The kicker is they last forever, and your linens dry much faster, saving electricity.—Patricia M., email

Single Cup of OJ

I make orange juice from concentrate, but sometimes I end up throwing half of it away because I don’t drink it fast enough. While visiting my friend, I noticed that she would make a glass of orange or grape juice by scooping out a spoonful of frozen concentrate from the container in the freezer, putting it in a glass the size of the drink that she wanted, adding water, and stirring. I thought this was a great technique!—Diana M., email

Ants Begone

To get rid of those annoying little kitchen ants, lay out dryer fabric sheets. Put them behind your canisters, appliances, and even bathroom sinks. The ants will quickly disappear.—Melissa, Tennessee

Record That Number

I pay my bills online. At first, when I got the confirmation numbers, I was writing them down on scraps of paper near my computer and losing them. So now I always have my checkbook register handy, and when I deduct the amount in it, I write the confirmation number in the transaction description line. My computer is much neater now, too.—Nancy P., email
