HELOISE'S HELPFUL HINTS FOR REMOVING BODY FLUIDS

HELOISE'S HELPFUL HINTS FOR REMOVING BODY FLUIDS

SAN ANTONIO, Texas (Wireless Flash) -- Housekeeping advice guru Heloise answers all sorts of questions about stain removal -- but some of her readers have asked questions that hit below the belt. The syndicated columnist says she once fielded a request concerning a Monica Lewinsky-like situation where a "bodily fluid" needed to be removed from a wind breaker. Although Heloise thought the question was a joke at first, she responded to the reader personally with the advice that "extremely hot water and soap" would be the best way to get rid of the spot. That's not the only odd question posed to Heloise. One man told her he'd eaten a batch of onion rings made with 10- year-old batter and asked, "Do you think it was safe for me to eat them?" Heloise's newest book is "In the Kitchen With Heloise" (Perigee).
