An ounce of prevention c?.n cure those FURNITURE ACCIDENT BLUES that happen so easily during the holiday guest season. Have a light wax coating on all your furniture (not too much, it will just collect dust and dim the finish). Always give coasters with glasses served }Xo guests--and clean up spills right away so they can't soak thru the finish. Take care of those cigarettes that are accidentally left burning^with ash travs that have the grooves that will put them out. Glue felt matti.ng to the base of lamps, ash trays, other rough-surfaced pieces you keep on top of slicksurface tables or sideboards to avoid scratches. Accidents wiil still happen--but at least they won't be so serious. One way to keep SWEATERS F R O M S T R E T C H I N G w h e n you wash them is to rinse them in a colander, squeezing the excess water out gently. There's SO MUCH COOKING going on in the holiday season --be sure to keep these Smarty Short - Cuts handy: Tightly packed frozen vegetables (like spinach, broccoli) will cook faster ii block is first cut into chunks. And use those frozen or canncd mixed vegetables to save time on stews or casseroles. Instead of preparing special sauces for foods, use chili sauce, sour cream, canned tomato or cream - ol-mushroom soup, soy sauce. Cut up celery stalks quickly by holding several together on board, then slicing crosswise on slant with very sharp knife. When mincing onions or peppers, prepare extra amounts to wrap and freeze for future use.
