- I was hosting a dinner party for my husband and some of his co-workers when his boss’s wife tripped on a step and spilled her cabernet on our new carpet. Yes, of course, our new carpet is white. We’d had it for less than a week. I was petrified but remained calm and kept a smile on my face. I’d always heard that club soda helps get out red wine so the caterer immediately went to work. It did a fairly good job but my question is two-fold: Is there any other miracle remedy for red wine spills; and is there anything I can do with what has set in?

- I recently moved into a new apartment and I have a real problem. The floors in here really show scuff marks. I have left black heel marks all over the place. It’s reached the point where it’s embarrassing to me for someone to come over. I have mopped and mopped, but I can’t get them up. Help!

- OK, so I‘m a big dumb guy with a girlfriend who loves candles. I’m over at her apartment and I’m reaching back for the remote on the side table by the couch, not looking of course because I can always “feel” where the remote is. Somehow, unbeknownst to me, my girlfriend had strategically place a burning candle between me and my target. Though I have the reflexes of a stealth fighter pilot, I managed to knock over said candle, spilling its contents not only on the table, but also on the carpet below. My solution of “scissors” didn’t set too well with my girlfriend. So I ask, what on earth can I do to get the wax out of the carpet? And while you’re at it, is there a way to get it off the table without scratching it? Surely this has happened before.
