How to Starch a Shirt

Starching a shirt is one of the best ways to provide the garment with a look that is crisp and fresh. Apart from minimizing wrinkling and providing a more polished appearance, starch also can help protect the fiber of the shirt and make it possible to enjoy more years of wear. The secret to getting the most out of starching a shirt is knowing how to prepare the garment, managing the proper mixture of the starch, and applying just the right amount to the surface of the fibers. You can use store-bought starch, or create a mixture out of cassava, corn starch or vodka.

"Nothing else can produce the joy or broken heart that motherhood allows. I couldn't imagine going through life without feeling that spectrum of emotion. There are wonderful days when I feel my cup runneth over. There are days that I want to run away. “Motherhood is to sleep with one eye open and always worry. To constantly feel guilty about SOMETHING. To have your heart so filled with love you think it might explode and then have it broken all in the space of less that 60 seconds.
