Clothesline in the wind.  Credit--cpriest at www.sxc.huIf you have a grease spot on a piece of white clothing, Barbara says to wash it with a load of clothes in hot water, and add a cup of bleach to the load (a bit less if it’s  not a full load), which usually gets rid of the grease spot.  If the spot is on a piece of colored clothing and you can’t use bleach, make a paste of baking soda and water and apply to the spot, along with a few drops of dishwashing detergent.  Then rub it in for about two minutes (rub with an old toothbrush if the spot is very stubborn) and then wash as usual in a load of colored clothes.  That will usually get rid of the spot.
