Had a meeting tonight and I got home and reached into my hand bag to check to see which phone calls I missed while I was busy. Why is it that my hand emerged from my bag covered in goo?! Okay, it wasn’t goo, it was the travel-sized One Step Hand Sanitizer that I carry with me (you can never be too careful).

Some how the lid came unscrewed and spilt almost its entire contents into the bottom of my Apple Bottom hand bag. At first I was upset, but luckily my cell phone (which has a case) was inside an interior pocket and all that got “gooed up” was some loose change, a pen, a couple of old receipts and the side of my wallet.

Now, I had some ink stains in the bottom of my purse from when an uncapped pen was floating around in there, and I had always wondered what the best way of getting those stains removed. Hand sanitizer! As I started wiping off the excess alcohol-based hand sanitizer from the inside of my purse I noticed that the ink stains were disappearing. With a little friction of the paper towel the stains were gone!

I just rinsed out the lining of my purse. Now it smells minty fresh. :)
