AIBU to ask if there is a solution?

[diamond211]

OK, I know I am probably going to be unreasonable this week as I have PMT - I can recognise the symptoms and finally after 30 years can admit it to myself!

Today I have had to go to the shop twice for carrots as I forgot them the first time round, I have spilled frozen peas all over the floor and don't care about the ones that have rolled under the freezer and for the second time in two days I have let the potatoes boil dry, ruining my saucepans.

I asked DH if he would like me to hold the ladder he was about to climb and the look he gave me suggested that he would rather shave his head with a cheese grater (yes, he knows the symptoms too).

I know it is probably too late to sort out my PMT but does anyone know what I can do about my saucepans please?

Stainless Steel or non stick?

I think a scourer and cif sorts out pans or I've heard coke does too by boiling it up!

Boil with soap powder in them. Really works.

They are the heavy Le Creuset ones, a real bugger to clean.

Bottle of Coke! Works everytime! what does it do to my insides???

Fairy power spray works wonders on le cruset pans. May take a couple if goes, but does work.

Thanks for all the suggestions, I will give them a go tomorrow when I am in a better mood :)

If you haven't started yet - if you're boiling with soap powder - yes, it does work, but it also foams up a lot, so do keep an eye on quantities and watch it while it does its job.
