Heloise's Prez Visit Tips

Misc.

All this talk about pretend housework reminds me of a response Heloise gave a reporter's question: "What would you do if the President of the United States was coming to your house in 15 minutes?"

She said, "I would dump a can of cinnamon into a tin pie plate and put it in a warm oven. Then I would throw all the large stuff on the living room floor into a closet. Then I would douse a rag in pine-sol and whirl it around my head. Then I would do my lipstick."
