| We have tried several different things in our drain. It seems to work for awhile, then the water just stands in the sink. It finally goes down. We've also replaced the pipe under the sink. Do you have any suggestions? Thanks for your time, I really appreciate it. |

| Once a month pour a cup of baking soda into your drain followed by a cup of white vinegar. Let the two bubble and fizz and then flush the drain with boiling water. |

| Any suggestion on how to part two crystal bowls that are sitting one in the other and won't come apart. I have tried oil, hot soapy water but to no avail. I hate to have to break one of the bowls to get them apart. Any suggestions will be appreciated. Thanks. |
| Answer: |
| Place the bottom dish in warm water to expand the glass slightly and fill the top with ice water to slightly contract the glass. Then you should be able to get them apart! |
