Helpful hints from Grandma Bea

Tired of those wayward sheets and blankets?
Don't want to have to make your bed after a night of tossing and turning?
Wish your night covers would just stay in place?

Try safety pins. Yes, those household safety pins will solve all your worries. Just make your bed with clean sheets as you normally would. Fold the flat sheet over the blankets at the top and use that safety pin to hold them all together. One on each side and one in the middle.

You can even go so far as to pin the bottom sheet to the mattress if you find it too is a slippery little devil. And, if you want to make sure your feet won't come uncovered in the middle of the night, you can pin all the blankets to the underside of the mattress.

You scoff now, but think of all the time you will save.
