Quick Random Kitchen Tip:

To save on paper towels or to keep you from running to fetch the mop:

Keep used, wet, or dirty, dish towels in a small laundry basket on the floor in the kitchen until you are ready to launder them - an out-of-the-way corner or nook works best, so you're not constantly tripping over the basket.

When you spill something on the floor, just grab a towel from the basket, wipe up the spill, and toss the towel back in the dirty laundry basket. No need to waste paper towels, or get a clean towel dirty.

Ta-da!
