Pro Home Tip

Time To Recaulk Those Window Frames

Keep the drafts out this winter!

Make sure the areas to be caulked are clean. Start by

washing with mild detergent and dry well. Use masking tape to protect walls and obtain a straight edge.

Cut the nozzle of a new tube of caulking at a 45-degree

angle. The opening should not exceed a quarter inch in

diameter.

Position the tip at a 45-degree

angle to the seam to be caulked. Move the gun

slowly, keeping a steady pressure on the caulking gun

trigger.

When you reach the end of a seam, push the nozzle into the caulking to cut it off and twist

it sharply as you pull away.

You needn't smooth out the caulk because it will shrink as it dries. If you do smooth it,

use the back of a spoon dipped in mineral spirits or, if

using latex caulk, use your finger dipped in water.

1 cup heavy cream or half and half

salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

In a large skillet over medium heat brown together the
