Get out your notebooks, sharpen your pencils, hone your note-passing skills: Laundry School is in session! We're devoting the entire month of May to the subject of laundry. And what fun would Laundry School be if you couldn't backtalk the teacher, right? So! The Twitter hashtag for this is #LAUNDRYSCHOOL. If you follow me on Twitter (@joliekerr) you can holler at me when you do your laundry! Or lemme see those beautiful piles of folded clothes! Or ask questions! Or tweet at me in emergency situations! Or maybe you just really, really, really need to talk to me about how folding a fitted sheet sends you into fits of rage. This is me, being here for you. And because I try to be here for you in as many ways as possible, I've started a pinboard devoted entirely to laundry to serve as a reference source. Most importantly: got questions? Ask away!

I love Ask a Clean Person because I am so not a clean person. I'm also not an expensive bag person because of aforementioned inability to be clean, but for my birthday in November my boyfriend got me a what I would consider ridiculously expensive bag. Somehow I have managed to keep it relatively stain free, but on the bus tonight I read the newspaper and when I looked down at my purse I realized that some ink had smudged onto it! READ MORE

I don't want to get rid of my sandals but seriously, they are disgusting. I am not a Sweaty Person or a Stinky Person in general. My socks never get stinky or sweaty, not even the ones I wear when I work out. Come the spring/sandal time, though, and I swear by 10 a.m. it smells like there's a dirty dog and a bag of Fritos under my desk. I make myself sick, and I'm terrified that if I can smell my own feet, everyone else can, too. READ MORE

What's the fastest and best way to clean my juicer? Love juice, hate how long it takes to clean up afterward, especially when it's so easy to just toss a plastic cup. And is it okay to kind of leave that little green residue in there for another day? I mean really it can't hurt me right? Right? Am I gross / is that gross? I love my juicer but it's bringing me down. READ MORE

I found this totally gorgeous white rabbit fur muff at a thrift store a few years ago and, for whatever reason, put it in a closet in my parents' house and forgot about it for too long. I just rediscovered it, only to find that it has been infested by a team of some kind of creepy invertebrate that may or may not all still be alive. How do I de-bug it without harming the delicate, soft rabbit fur so that I can go ice skating, walk in winter wonderlands, and enjoy other old-fashioned winter fun with my beautiful rabbit fur muff?

Welcome to the final installment of March Madness, Clean Person-style, a monthlong project we've been calling Let's All Make ... Our Beds. It's just what it sounds like: we all made our beds for the entire month of March. The fun carried over to Twitter, where I tweeted regularly about all things bed-related and we used the hashtag #LAMOB to spread the joy far and wide! READ MORE

Welcome back to March Madness, Clean Person-style, a month-long project we're calling Let's All Make ... Our Beds. It's just what it sounds like: we're going to make our beds for the entire month of March. To keep everyone excited (and I mean, who wouldn't be excited about this?), I'm tweeting regularly about all things bed-related — follow me @joliekerr and use the hashtag #LAMOB to join in — several of this month's AaCP columns will be devoted to the topic of beds, bedmaking, and bedcleaning (got questions? Ask away), and my bedspiration-themed pinboard will continue to grow. With that, here's part three. READ MORE

There's a whiteboard at work that's been written on to no end, and even after it gets erased, it's all gray, smudgy, and gross. I want to make it white and easy to erase again without buying a new one — any advice? I've tried the old 'color over it with marker, wait 5 minutes, erase' trick (which works wonders on permanent marker, believe me), but it's just not cutting it for this old grime. READ MORE
