HELPFUL HINTS

LITTLE ROCK — DEAR HELOISE: My grandmother was going to make bread pudding, but she lost her recipe. She then told me that she cut it out of your column. Could you reprint the recipe for me?
- Renee S., via e-mail
DEAR READER: Let's get this Heloise Bread Pudding recipe printed for your grandmother! It's not an exact recipe - you just kind of add the food items until it looks and tastes right.
Beat an egg and put it in a casserole dish.
Add 1 or 2 cups of milk.
Tear up day-old bread,buns, doughnuts or sweet rolls.
Soak in milk until it's juicy and most of the milk is absorbed.
Add a few teaspoons of sugar, a little cinnamon and a teaspoon of vanilla extract and stir thoroughly. (You don't need to add sugar if using doughnuts or sweet rolls.) Bake at 350 degrees for one hour.
DEAR HELOISE: To save time, I have marked each set of sheets in my linen closet. I use a permanent black marker. On the tag of the sheets, I mark "Q" for queen, "F" for full, etc. No more pulling sheets out of the closet to find out what size they are!
- Dorothy Jones, Youngstown, Ohio
DEAR HELOISE: After using a roll of tape, I would always struggle to find the beginning of the tape the next time. Now after each use, I fold the end of the tape under about 1 /4 inch. The next time, it is ready to go.
- Brenda Ellis, Cleveland, Tenn.DEAR HELOISE: Before the bath soap becomes an inconvenient sliver, simply press it onto a fresh, just-used bar. The moisture and warmth will blend the two together.
