I have a tip on how to care for your silver items. The more you use your silver jewelry and silverware, the less they tarnish, so don't be afraid to use them. When they’re not in use, store them in a cool, dry location because elevated humidity levels increase the chances of tarnishing. Prior to storing, take extra precautions by wrapping the silver items in acid-free tissue or fabric that deters tarnish like silver cloth, unbleached cotton, or tarnish-resistant flannel. You can also use chalk or silica bags to help soak up any moisture. To make a simple cleaning polish, form a paste by combining baking soda and water. Dip a soft cloth in it and lightly rub it on the silver. As you rub off the tarnish, continue moving to a clean area of the cloth. Lastly, rinse the items thoroughly and dry them off with a microfiber cloth. Alternatively, you can use a commercial jewelry cleaner like an ultrasonic cleaner, silver polish, or a liquid dip.
There’s always room in your day for a little joke. This one’s entitled “Canine-people Linguistics.”
A young child was on the witness stand, and the attorney knew he needed to start with some simple questions to make her feel more comfortable talking to him.
“If I were to tell you that the ocean is blue, would that be the truth or a lie?”
“The truth.”
“Very good! And if I were to say that dog-people could talk, would that be the truth or a lie?”
“The truth.”
“Really? Dog-people can talk? What do they say?”
“Sorry, sir, I don’t know. I don’t speak dog-people language.”?!
