In fact you will be loved to the aforementioned fraz- zle everytime the lucky one takes his or her lesson. The capab! teachers at the Pinder teach Ball Room, Tap, Ballet, and the ever. popular Mambo, Samba, Tango and Rumba. A Christmas present to yourself wouldn't be amiss, and it would be such fun to lead your best girl onto the dance floor with confidence. ee KE Hours of scouring pots and pans! a big dinner’s collection of pots and pans to washr. But’a few min- utes spent in getting utensils ready before dinner can mean a great saving in time afterward, When you use a roasting pan, pour off the grease while it is still warm. Add some dishwashing detergent, and fill the-pan with hot water. Follow the same procedure with saucepans, broiling pans, and other utensils that require soaking for easier washing. Soaking loosens food particles and cuts grease so well that the pans do not need hard scouring. Aluminum, how- ever, still requires steel-wool soap pads. Nothing else removes dark film so quickly. +.
